Islamabad, January 18, 2026 – The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) is set to decide on revised property valuation tables for District Islamabad by the end of January 2026, following objections raised by real estate stakeholders over discrepancies in assessed values.
The FBR had revised property valuation tables across Pakistan on October 29, 2024, excluding Islamabad due to a pending complaint before the Federal Tax Ombudsman (FTO). Later, the tax authority notified SRO 2392(I)/2025 on December 8, 2025, introducing updated fair market values for immovable properties in the federal capital.
However, Real Estate Associations and other stakeholders approached the FBR, claiming that valuation rates in several Islamabad sectors were higher than prevailing market prices. Upon review, the FBR found merit in some of the objections and decided to re-evaluate the valuation tables for Islamabad.
As a result, SRO 2392(I)/2025 has been placed in abeyance until January 31, 2026, or until a revised notification is issued, whichever comes earlier. During this interim period, older valuation rates under SRO 1180(I)/2022 dated July 27, 2022, as amended by SRO 1610(I)/2022 dated August 25, 2022, will remain applicable.
The upcoming revision is expected to provide more accurate market-based valuations and clarity for taxpayers, property buyers, and real estate investors in Islamabad.
