SRB announces 75 prizes in second POS invoices draw

Sindh Revenue Board

Karachi, August 13, 2025 – The Sindh Revenue Board (SRB) has announced a total of 75 prizes in its second prize ballot draw for Point of Sale (POS) invoices.

The computerized draw included 50 cash prizes, aimed at encouraging greater participation from customers who request and verify their POS-integrated receipts.

According to the SRB statement, the POS invoicing system was launched to integrate the billing mechanisms of restaurants, beauty parlors, and gyms with the SRB’s central computerized network. This integration enables real-time reporting of invoices and allows customers to verify each transaction by scanning the QR code or checking the SRB invoice number through the ‘eSRB’ mobile app or the SRB website.

The public campaign promoting the POS system has generated significant interest, with a growing number of customers verifying their invoices to qualify for the prize scheme. SRB officials highlighted that the initiative not only ensures transparency but also helps combat potential tax evasion in the service sector.

To incentivize participation, SRB introduced a computerized balloting system that rewards customers whose verified invoices are selected. By linking the verification process with attractive prizes, the SRB aims to make it standard practice for customers to request POS-integrated invoices from service providers.

Authorities believe that the combination of transparency, customer engagement, and the chance to win prizes will strengthen tax compliance. In the long term, the initiative is expected to boost provincial revenue, while also assuring customers that their tax contributions—clearly recorded on verified invoices—are deposited directly into the government treasury.
