Bazaar Traders
Shops in the city's main bazaars sell cloth, jewellery, electronics and household goods. Supplier bills from Rawalpindi and Lahore wholesalers, daily takings and the stock at 30 June make up the return.
Property Dealers
Estate agents earn commission on sales and rentals, often for owners living in the UK. Their income is commission, while advance tax at transfers is the buyer's and seller's.
Travel Agents
Agents booking flights to Britain and the Gulf earn commission and service charges; ticket prices passed to airlines are not their income.
Lawyers
Advocates at the district courts declare fees less chamber and clerk costs; some clients withhold tax.
Doctors and Clinics
Doctors' fees and clinic income are taxable, with fee registers forming the record.
Private Schools
Schools keep fee registers and salary sheets for teachers.
Riverside Restaurants
Restaurants along the river serve visitors from the GT Road; services fall under PRA.
Gold and Jewellery
Jewellers in the main bazaar record gold bought, sold and exchanged, and weigh their stock at 30 June.
Rented Flats in the Newer Schemes
Flats and portions let to families moving into the city are a common investment for overseas owners, whose rent is declared in Pakistan.
