SECTION 7E REMAINS CONTESTED — ONLY 50% PAYMENT ALLOWED FOR NOW

The controversy around section 7E is far from settled. While the Sindh High Court and a divisional bench of the Lahore High Court upheld the provision, several other High Courts declared it unconstitutional. The Supreme Court has not yet issued a final verdict but granted interim relief requiring taxpayers to deposit only 50% of the tax, with the balance subject to the final outcome. If taxpayers succeed, the deposited amount will be refunded; if not, the remaining liability becomes payable. The dispute highlights the uncertainty faced by property owners across different provinces.
