ISLAMABAD: The FBR has notified a revised payment structure for the chairpersons and members of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committees (ADRC), setting one-time remuneration based on the value of tax liability under dispute.
According to SRO 2076(I)/2025 issued on Thursday, the chairperson of the ADR Committee will receive a lump sum payment of Rs 500,000 in cases where the disputed tax liability exceeds Rs 50 million. For cases involving tax liabilities up to Rs 50 million, the chairperson will be entitled to Rs 300,000.
Similarly, members of the committee (other than the chief commissioner Inland Revenue) will be paid Rs 250,000 per case involving tax liabilities above Rs 50 million, and Rs 150,000 for cases up to Rs 50 million.
This revision is part of ongoing efforts to streamline the functioning of ADRCs and enhance efficiency in handling tax dispute resolution. The FBR has recently sought stakeholder input on broader reforms in the ADRC appointment and operational framework.
The amended rules further specify that the chairperson and members may also claim travel and daily allowances at rates equivalent to BPS-22 and BPS-21 federal government officers respectively.
