Salary Tax Withholding and Filing

Hand your employees’ salary income tax to HRBD. Each month HRBD deducts the right amount at source against the current National Board of Revenue (NBR) slabs, deposits it to the government by challan, files the withholding return, and issues your staff their tax-deduction certificates — so this statutory duty under the Income Tax Act 2023 is met on time without sitting on your team. It is a narrower service than payroll processing, which runs the whole pay cycle, and separate from corporate income tax and VAT, which are the company’s own taxes.

Why Employers Hand This to HRBD

Salary tax at source is a recurring statutory duty, and the penalties for getting it wrong fall on the employer. HRBD takes the deduction, deposit, filing and certificates off your team and keeps you compliant with the National Board of Revenue.

Each employee’s tax is calculated on the current NBR slabs and their declared rebates, so the amount withheld is correct and defensible in an audit.

Salary and tax records are held under written confidentiality terms and shared only with the people you name; challans and certificates are kept for the required period.

Your team stops preparing challans and returns each period. HRBD deducts, deposits and files to the deadline and keeps the proof.

Deadlines and NBR rule changes are tracked so deductions, deposits and returns stay correct, and the penalties for late or wrong filing are avoided.

Whether you run a few salaries or a large payroll, the deduction, deposit and filing are handled the same way every period.

Your existing records are taken on at the start and reconciled, and if you ever move the work the full challan and return history is returned to you.

Salary Tax Filing FAQs

Payroll tax filing is the employer’s duty to deduct income tax at source from employee salaries, deposit it to the government by challan, and file the withholding return with the National Board of Revenue (NBR) under the Income Tax Act 2023. HRBD runs this for you.

Yes. An employer must deduct income tax at source from each employee’s salary based on the applicable slabs, deposit the amount to the government, and report it to the NBR. Failing to deduct or deposit can lead to interest, penalties and disallowed expenses.

Each employee’s monthly tax is estimated against the current income-tax slabs for the year, adjusted for the exemptions and investment rebates they are entitled to, so the deduction spreads the year’s liability across the twelve months.

The deducted tax is deposited to the government treasury by challan within the time the rules require, and the challan is kept as proof for the return and for any audit.

The employer files the salary withholding tax return with the NBR on the schedule the rules require, reporting the tax deducted and deposited. HRBD prepares and files it and keeps the records.

Payroll processing runs the whole monthly pay cycle; corporate income tax and VAT are the company’s own taxes.

It does not cover your corporate return or your employees’ personal filing.

HRBD responds to NBR notices and queries on salary tax, reconciles the figures against the challans and returns, and provides the supporting records to resolve the matter.
