PECHS (Pakistan Employees Cooperative Housing Society) combines residential blocks with some of Karachi's busiest commercial roads, including Tariq Road and stretches of Shahrah-e-Faisal. Clients here include retailers, office-based businesses, landlords and professionals.
Retail Along the Commercial Roads
Fashion, footwear and home-goods retailers in PECHS increasingly fall under FBR's point-of-sale rules for larger retailers, which report sales to FBR in real time. Their income tax returns must match those reported sales. Smaller shops not covered by POS still need purchase and sales records.
Offices Along Shahrah-e-Faisal
Consultancies, software houses, travel agents and advertising firms operate from PECHS office buildings. Services provided in Sindh may require SRB registration, and corporate clients deduct income tax from invoices. Keeping a schedule of each client's deductions makes credits easy to claim.
Landlords of Commercial Property
Owners of shops and office floors let to banks and chains receive rent with tax deducted. Rent from commercial property is a significant income for many PECHS families and must be declared together with the credits.
Residents
PECHS residential blocks house professionals and business families whose returns combine salary or business income with rent and investments.
| Client | Main concern |
|---|---|
| Large retailer | POS-reported sales match the return |
| Office business | SRB registration and client deductions |
| Commercial landlord | Rent with tax deducted |
| Resident family | Combined income and wealth statement |
Getting Started
Retailers should share POS or card machine reports, purchase records and bank statements; office businesses their invoices, client tax certificates and SRB returns; landlords their tenancy agreements and tenants' deduction certificates. We combine these into one return and wealth statement for each owner.
