Create a conservative tax reserve without assuming eligibility for a particular export, withholding or final-tax regime. Revenue and documented business expenses produce a planning profit before the chosen effective rate.
How to use it

Total documented annual receipts.
- 2
Subtract only supportable business expenses.
- 3
Choose an effective reserve rate after checking current professional guidance.
Formula and methodology
Planning profit = gross receipts − deductible expenses. Tax reserve = planning profit × effective tax rate.
Uses standard financial arithmetic with editable rates and terms. Tax, bank and product-specific rules require current official confirmation.
Worked calculation example
PKR 3 million receipts and PKR 600,000 documented expenses create PKR 2.4 million planning profit; a 5% reserve equals PKR 120,000.
