Sindh Revenue Board

Karachi, April 9, 2026 — The Sindh Revenue Board (SRB) has announced the winner of a 1300cc car as part of its third computerized prize ballot draw, aimed at promoting tax compliance through verified Point of Sale (POS) invoices.

The prize draw, held on April 9, 2026, in Karachi, included a total of 76 prizes ranging from a 1300cc car to motorcycles, televisions, refrigerators, tablets, mobile phones, smart watches, and cash rewards. The event was attended by tax consultants, advisors, and media representatives, ensuring transparency in the selection process.

A total of 90,937 verified invoices were included in the third draw, marking a significant increase compared to 3,260 and 8,734 invoices in the first and second draws, respectively. SRB officials highlighted that the growing participation reflects increasing public engagement with the initiative.

SRB Chairman Dr. Wasif Ali Memon presented a detailed briefing on the prize scheme, emphasizing its role in strengthening transparency and encouraging tax compliance among consumers and businesses.

The authority has integrated POS systems of retail businesses, including restaurants and service providers, with its computerized platform. This system allows real-time reporting of invoices and enables customers to verify the authenticity of their receipts by scanning QR codes or entering invoice details through the SRB mobile application or official website.

Invoices that are successfully verified are automatically entered into the computerized prize draw, offering consumers a direct incentive to demand proper billing.

Officials stated that the initiative not only helps verify tax payments but also contributes to increasing overall tax revenue. By encouraging customers to request and verify POS invoices, SRB aims to create a culture of transparency and accountability in retail transactions.

With the success of the program, SRB expects broader adoption of POS-integrated invoicing, ultimately supporting tax growth and improving compliance across Sindh’s retail sector.
