SITE Sukkur

Factories in the Sukkur industrial area produce food products, textiles, cement products and other goods. They file monthly sales tax returns with FBR, withhold income tax on payments to suppliers and contractors and file withholding statements. Their annual income tax accounts must agree with all of these. Services they buy, such as security and cleaning, are taxed by the Sindh Revenue Authority.

Dates from Sukkur and Khairpur

Sukkur is a trading and processing centre for dates grown in Sukkur and Khairpur districts. Growers selling their own dates earn agricultural income. Traders and processors who buy dates, dry them into chhuhara, sort, pack and sell to markets and exporters earn business income. Export proceeds carry tax collected by banks under the export regime.

Transport Hub

Sukkur sits on the national highway, the Indus highway and the main railway. Truck and coach companies keep freight and fare records and claim the advance tax paid with their tokens.
