“Rationalization” Isn’t Enough
Every few months, we hear the same word: rationalization.
Lower slabs.
Adjusted rates.
Minor relief.
But here’s the uncomfortable truth: some things should not be taxed at all.
If Pakistan wants to compete globally in freelancing, IT exports, and digital services, then high-performance smartphones should be effectively zero-rated.
Not discounted.
Not partially waived.
Zero.
You cannot ask a Pakistani freelancer to compete with the world while throttling the very device that enables that competition.

If indirect taxes or registration charges must exist, then basic fairness demands this:
if ( function_exists( 'pgntn_display_pagination' ) ) pgntn_display_pagination( 'multipage' );
