Dear,
Salary of an employee to the maximum limit of Rs. 15,000 may be paid in cash, however, if the amount of salary exceeds Rs. 15,000 then the same should be paid by a cross cheque otherwise it will be treated as inadmissible expense.

However, the said limit of Rs. 15,000 is restricted to salary payment only, in case of other expense (other than salary) maximum limit to pay in cash is Rs. 10,000.

Best Regards,

Faisal

here is my concept, kindly confirm it.

http//www.fbr.gov.pk/tpef/brochures/2009/Salary.pdf

Go through the link & check basic exemption of I.tax slab that is Rs 180k for male & Rs 240k for females taxpayers & divide it with 12 months, whatever is the answer that will be the maximum limit of cash payments.

As per my understanding this limit of Rs. 15,000 for salary payment is cash was for the period when taxable income was starting from 200k and now when it is starting from 300k it would be 25,000 as no tax is to be deducted from the payment of 25,000 to an employee. If anyone opposes please comment. Need to be confirmed so that we could move forward with a thorough understanding.
Please comment on it.
