Tax Dispute Resolution

FBR's tax audit and enforcement activity has intensified significantly in recent years, with the number of audit notices issued under Section 177 increasing year over year. Receiving a tax demand or amended assessment can be a stressful experience, but with proper representation, a significant percentage of additional tax demands are successfully challenged and reduced or eliminated on appeal.N Our tax dispute resolution practice covers the complete lifecycle of a tax controversy: analyzing the FBR notice to determine the legal basis and factual accuracy of the additional demand, preparing comprehensive responses with supporting documentation, representing you before the Commissioner Appeals (first tier), filing appeals before the Appellate Tribunal Inland Revenue (ATIR), and pursuing matters before the High Court where necessary.N We also handle: requests for rectification of mistakes under Section 221, applications for revision under Section 122A, advance ruling applications to resolve potential disputes proactively, and negotiations for settlement under Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provisions under Section 134A. Our approach prioritizes resolving disputes at the earliest possible stage to minimize legal costs and uncertainty.N For complex multi-year disputes involving large amounts, we work with our corporate tax strategy team to structure comprehensive settlement proposals that address the underlying issues while protecting your interests.
