In a key development, the tax collection target of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) would be fixed within the range of Rs9 trillion to Rs9.2 trillion for 2023-24.

Reports said the tax projections for 2023-24 would be finalised keeping in view the massive shortfall in revenue collection of the FBR during 2022-23. The rates of certain withholding taxes and sales tax/excise duty would be further raised in the coming budget (2023-24).
