(@FahadShabbir)ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23rd Sep, 2025) The Supreme Court adjourned the hearing of petitions challenging the super tax till Wednesday, as arguments by the petitioners’ counsel, Ahmad Jamal Sukhera, could not be completed.
Citing examples, Justice Rizvi said gold shop owners consumed abundant electricity but paid only Rs 5,000 in taxes.
Justice Rizvi observed that objections should have been raised when the legislation was passed in 2022, but at that time, the opposition was friendly.
He argued that the super tax should apply only to income above Rs 150 million and not below that threshold.
The bench then adjourned further proceedings in the super tax case till Wednesday.
