Aide to finance minister outlines tax reforms What lies in the centre of the reform effort is the targeting of high-value non-filers Adviser to the Finance Minister Khurram Schehzad. — Linkedin@khurramschehzad/File KARACHI: The government has launched a sweeping set of tax reforms aimed at narrowing the country’s substantial tax gap, estimated at Rs7.1 trillion. Adviser to the Finance Minister Khurram Schehzad outlined key measures in a detailed series of posts on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting the Federal Board of Revenue’s (FBR) compliance and enforcement strategies. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1700472799616-0'); }); What lies in the centre of the reform effort is the targeting of high-value non-filers. With 4.9 million non-filers identified through data from banks, property registries, vehicle records and telecom spending, the government has used algorithms to categorise these individuals into actionable clusters. Of these, the top 5.0 per cent of earners, representing 3.3 million individuals, owe over Rs1.6 trillion in taxes. However, only 0.8 million of these high-income earners file returns, leaving 2.7 million unaccounted for. Notices have already been issued to 169,000 affluent non-filers, with enforcement plans extending into 2025. High-value non-filers include those with annual bank profits exceeding Rs1.3 million, ownership of three or more vehicles, or deposits over Rs28 million. A digital dashboard has been deployed to monitor enforcement progress. To combat systemic tax evasion, the FBR is establishing linkages with major value chains in industries such as sugar, cement, textiles and beverages. Advanced technologies, including video-based production monitoring and track-and-trace systems, are being employed to reconcile sectoral data with tax filings, Schehzad unveiled in his post. The sugar industry, for instance, is already under scrutiny, with data from video analytics and track-and-trace solutions monitored centrally. Similar measures will soon expand to other priority sectors. Automation plays a pivotal role in curbing sales tax evasion. Businesses engaging in fraudulent input tax adjustments have been identified using network analytics tools that trace transactions across sales chains. This innovation reduces auditing time from days to minutes, boosting the FBR’s ability to identify and address fraudulent practices. According to the adviser, a new system of faceless assessments aims to eliminate collusion between importers and appraisers. Goods Declarations (GDs) are now randomly assigned to a centralised pool of sanitised appraisers. Enhanced monitoring, including body cameras, ensures transparency, with 80 per cent of Karachi’s import volume already covered under the system. The initiative will expand nationwide by 2025. The Tax Amendment Bill 2024 introduces stricter penalties for non-compliance. Non-filers will be barred from purchasing vehicles exceeding 800cc, opening bank accounts, buying property beyond specified limits, or acquiring shares. These measures signal the government’s resolve to end the culture of tax evasion. While acknowledging that reforms are a work in progress, Schehzad said that Pakistan is on the “right track” to creating a balanced and effective tax system. By combining targeted enforcement, advanced automation, and legislative changes, the government aims to enhance tax compliance and boost revenue collection.

November 30 - Micah Peavy had 24 points and eight assists to power Georgetown to a 100-68 win over Albany Saturday in Washington, D.C. Thomas Sorber contributed 14 points and 13 rebounds for his third double-double this season as Georgetown (6-1) won its fourth straight. Malik Mack added 16 points for Georgetown, which made 63.1 percent of its shots, including 9-of-22 (40.9 percent) of its attempts from 3-point range. Kheni Briggs and Amar'e Marshall scored 17 points each for Albany (5-3) in the first-ever meeting of the teams. Justin Neely added 12 points for the Great Danes who were without two of their top four scorers, Byron Joshua and DeMarr Langford Jr. Albany hit 35.7 percent of its shots from the floor and 7-of-22 (31.8 percent) from deep. They also hit all 18 of their free throws in the first half, finishing 21-of-24 from the line. Peavy also had four steals and three blocks to pace the Hoyas defense, which forced 18 turnovers. In the opening minutes, Peavy tallied half of the points in a 12-0 run, but Albany weathered it by going on its own 10-2 sprint, with Briggs supplying the final six points to put the Great Danes up 19-16. Georgetown answered in kind, reeling off 13 straight points. Sorber started the rush with a three-point play and he closed it with a perimeter 3 as the Hoyas took a 29-19 lead. Late in the half, Peavy drained 3-pointers to start and finish a 10-point spree, which gave the Hoyas a 14-point lead on their way to a 49-35 advantage at the break. Undermanned Albany never challenged in the second half. A 15-point blitz by Georgetown expanded the lead to 32 points. Drew Fielder, who finished with 10 points, started the run with a three-point play. Mack added his own three-point play in the run plus a trey. Jordan Burks, who finished with 11 points, closed it out with a fastbreak slam after a steal and a feed from Peavy as the Hoyas took a 74-42 lead with 13:11 left. Peavy maxed out the Hoyas lead at 40 points midway through the half when he drained a triple that made it 86-46. Georgetown hit the century mark in emphatic fashion as reserve Drew McKenna threw down a slam-dunk with 1:44 left. --Field Level Media Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tabSaturday’s Ohio State-Michigan game ended in shock for many, but what happened after the final whistle is what most fans will likely remember most. Down their best offensive and defensive player in tight end Colston Loveland and cornerback Will Johnson, respectively, unranked Michigan went into Columbus and knocked off the No. 2-ranked Buckeyes. During their postgame celebration, the Wolverines gathered at midfield and planted their school flag at midfield, which started a brawl between the two teams. Things got out of hand quickly, and police were forced to use some pepper spray to keep things from escalating any further. Videos started going viral of several players with mace in their eyes on the sidelines after the brawl was broken up, and one of the players who was on the receiving end of it was Michigan defensive end Josaiah Stewart, who tweeted the details of exactly what happened to him before deleting it moments later. “Got maced, beer thrown at my face hit by a fan all in 5 min what a state 😂 #2-0,” Stewart wrote. It’s not known why Stewart deleted his tweet, but it likely had something to do with not drawing more negative attention to what transpired on the field, especially since many consider Michigan to be the instigator of what happened. While no one is disputing the legitimacy of what Stewart claims happened to him, the videos circulating on social media back up the mace part, but there were no videos (at least at time of publication) showing him getting struck by a fan or having beer thrown at him. Two other Michigan players — running back Tavierre Dunlap and linebacker Jason Hewlett — were seemingly maced as well, and multiple reports indicated that a few Ohio State players were maced as well.The Los Angeles Chargers activated running back J.K. Dobbins from injured reserve on Friday. Dobbins is formally listed as questionable but figures to be the team's top running threat for Saturday's road game against the New England Patriots. Teammate Gus Edwards (ankle) was ruled out Thursday. Dobbins has missed the past four games since sustaining a knee injury against the Baltimore Ravens on Nov. 25. He was a full practice participant Thursday before receiving the questionable label. The injury-prone Dobbins was enjoying a solid season prior to the knee ailment, with 766 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground and 28 receptions for 134 yards in 11 games. His career high for rushing yardage is 805 for the Ravens in 2020. Dobbins' return comes with the Chargers (9-6) just one win from clinching an AFC wild-card playoff spot. Los Angeles also elevated safeties Eddie Jackson and Kendall Williamson from the practice squad. --Field Level Media

Trump wants pardoned real estate developer Charles Kushner to be ambassador to FranceALEX BRUMMER: Miliband is missing the nuclear button By ALEX BRUMMER Updated: 21:50 GMT, 6 December 2024 e-mail 1 View comments Finger on the pulse?: Ed Miliband Until now, Ed Miliband largely has been silent on new nuclear. Addressing nuke industry bigwigs this week, the Energy Secretary declared that 'nuclear offers huge opportunities for our clean energy mission'. All that is splendid. However, the snail's pace of British administration, highlighted by the Prime Minister in his 'targets' speech on December 5, always gets in the way. There are real questions as to how hard Miliband is driving the atomic power agenda. If the UK is to have security of energy supplies, and persists with demonisation of the North Sea, then it is going to need a nuclear baseload. That is required to keep the lights on, and the electric vehicle network powered up. In addition, it is also going to entail huge amounts of new electricity to power data centres if Britain is to embrace artificial intelligence and the digital world. Miliband has bought time by extending the life of old kit at Heysham, Hartlepool and Torness. That is necessary, because decision making on new nukes has been so slow. The country is dependent on rackety older plants, often subject to closures for safety reasons. The Energy Secretary made it sound as if Sizewell C was certain to get the £2.7billion of government funding, mentioned in the Budget, to push ahead with development. Authorisation will have to wait until Rachel Reeves' spending review which is delayed until June 2025. Meanwhile, the government in Prague is pushing ahead with Rolls-Royce on deploying Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), using turbines pioneered in the UK's submarine fleet. Britain is in the slow lane persisting with a global auction before giving a domestic champion the go ahead. SMRs represent a sector where a UK green manufacturing revolution is attainable. The horse has already has bolted to Denmark for windfarms, Sweden and Poland for heat pumps and China for solar panels. If SMRs are to power a fourth industrial revolution, Britain should take a leaf out of the Czech and US approach and get on with the job. A decision is promised in the spring. Why are we waiting?

If regulatory approvals are won, Aviva will rapidly secure the reins at the motor insurance pioneer, which was the first UK insurer to spot the opportunity of going directly to the consumer rather than using brokers. Aviva is to fund the £3.61billion deal using £1.75billion of cash resources and the company's shares. In contrast to so many recent bids in the UK, the transaction does not involve taking on a debt mountain. Details of how the offer will be implemented are sketchy, but Direct Line HQ is expected be axed, and policies and administration moved onto capable Aviva platforms. There is unlikely to be any room for Direct Line chief executive Adam Winslow and senior colleagues, emigres from Aviva. Winslow can comfort himself in the fact that his incentive shares will vest and could be in line for a payout of £3m. The Aviva-Direct Line deal will face scrutiny by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) amid justified concern that the presence of much bigger beast in the marketplace could mean higher premiums. There is confidence at Aviva that it can demonstrate to the CMA that there is already ferocious competition in the markets for motor and home insurance. When examined on a segmented basis, such as EVs, women and younger motorists, there should be no problem. But caution is called for. Rayner win In August last year, I was given a forensic tour of Marks & Spencer's flagship Art Decor store on Oxford Street. I had earlier suggested Britain's favourite retailer was engaged in an act of architectural vandalism. After viewing the site, with its layers of industrial archaeology and leaking storage rooms, it was obvious that it was no longer fit for purpose. Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner deserves praise for giving a three-year delayed rebuilding project the go-ahead. M&S's next task is to find new premises for a food hall and for its fashion when one of its highest turnover outlets is dismantled.
