Lalamusa, a railway junction on the GT Road in Gujrat district, is a market town with many families whose members live in Europe and the Gulf, and with farms, shops and small industries serving the surrounding villages.

Families Abroad

Lalamusa and its villages have sent many people to Spain, Italy, Greece, France and the Gulf. Money they send home pays for houses, plots, weddings and land. Received through banks, it is a receipt, not income, and should appear in the wealth statement of the family member who owns what it buys. Relatives abroad who own property in their own names should register and file in Pakistan if they earn rent here or plan to sell.

Property in Lalamusa and Gujrat

New housing schemes along the GT Road attract buyers with money from abroad. Advance tax at transfer is lower for active filers, both for the buyer and, when the property is later sold, for the seller.
