Dear Kamran
You say that the kids who purchase mobile cards received the money from the elders and their income is assumed to be tax able. In market there are choclates and biscuits whose prices are hundreds of rupees. (under section 236 of ITO,2001 10% WHT levied on mobil cards
see also PART V of Schedule 1)
Assume a kid under the age of 10 years go into a market and purchase choclats and cookies of Rs.1000/- .An economist will blindly say that the withholding tax should be imposed . I think it will too unfare. Your argument given by you in your last post may be used by any economist or legilature.
You quoted the remarks of ex chairman of FBR that government making arrangments to reduce indirect taxes and increase direct taxes. In fact government government increasing indirect taxes. You have noticed that this year government increases general sales tax rate by 16% from 15%. As well as FED on mobile services has increases by 21% from 15%
I have read all cannons to levy tax.

Awais Aftab.
