This is a Weird reply for me I couldnt decipher, It is integrated with #FBRPOS and FBR said the slip was of Bank Confirmation not actual sales so no #FBRPOS particulars on it.
It looks a sale receipt rather than a Bank Slip #TaxChoriBandKaru

Thread on how to know & check if a Restaurant invoice in Sindh is Tax Compliant or not or it should be on SRBPOS or not, what to look for in an invoice, how to verify SNTN & if its a SRBPOS invoice how to verify that, hope to answer this all here, so lets begin
1/n
Services Sales Tax is governed by Sindh Revenue Board in Sindh knows as SRB after 18th amendment, and Restaurants, Pakwan Centers, Cafes are categorised as Services too so it falls in Sindh Revenue Board domain in Sindh, so who is liable to register with SRB? Does everyone has to register with them or Integrate with SRBPOS? NO, so we will first look at Basic Registration Criteria and then move on to SRBPOS upgraded criteria for Integration
2/n
Basic Registration Criteria for eateries in Sindh:
1)Air Conditioned.
2)Turnover (Sale) over Rs 2.5 million annual (25 Lack). 3) Utility bills exceed Rs 40,000 per month.
If any restaurant, Pakwan, Cafe is fulfilling ANY ONE of the three conditions mentioned it must be Registered with SRB for Sales Tax purposes, charge & collect sales tax which is 13% in Sindh for Eateries and deposit it monthly to SRB

With 19 open end Mutual Funds plus pension and some other funds too.

We are talking about Sharia Money Market ones (The Sharia part is under Meezan Bank board too not debating on that you can do your own due diligence)
There are currently 5 Money/Income Market funds Al-Meezan is offering
Context of this, Yes I have a very harsh take on it lot of people dont agree to it. Amna Fasih blocked me for it too on Shahzeb Case.
I salute Khadija who fought and won she never gave up, Ume Rubab doing the same, these are the examples we should look to & teach our children 1/n
In almost every such high profile case in #Pakistan it ends up in Money settlement, Failure of State too yes that is why it is called a Third World Country, NOTHING in this country comes easy you have to go all out till end to win some and loose most even then BUT
