Budget 2025-26 Brings Positive Reforms for Corporate & Real Estate Sectors in Pakistan
The recently announced Federal Budget 2025-26 has brought a wave of optimism for Pakistan’s corporate and real estate sectors. Designed to revive economic growth and attract both local and foreign investment, the new reforms have been widely welcomed by business leaders, developers, and investors across the country — especially in key markets such as Rawalpindi and Islamabad, where real estate has been showing steady resilience despite global challenges.
One of the most significant highlights of this year’s budget is the reduction in withholding tax on property transactions, a long-awaited measure that directly lowers the cost of buying and selling real estate. The Federal Excise Duty (FED) on property transfers has also been abolished, making property ownership more accessible and encouraging genuine buyers to re-enter the market. These fiscal incentives are expected to boost the overall demand for residential and commercial units — particularly in organized and high-value societies such as Bahria Town, DHA, and other premium zones of the twin cities.
For developers and corporate entities, the budget offers multiple reliefs aimed at easing the cost of doing business. Reduced taxation, incentives for construction-related industries, and the government’s renewed focus on affordable housing and infrastructure development point to a broader commitment to stabilize the economy. With a lower financial burden on developers, 2025-26 could become a defining year for sustainable construction growth and private-sector-led urban development.
The introduction of mortgage and housing finance support schemes underlines another positive shift. Access to structured financing not only empowers middle-income buyers but also enhances liquidity in the real estate ecosystem. For investors, this means improved market activity, higher rental yields, and better capital appreciation potential — especially in emerging localities such as Phase 7 and Phase 8 of Bahria Town Rawalpindi, where Sultan’s Group of Companies continues to deliver value-driven, designer residential projects.
Experts believe that these budgetary incentives will not only generate new business opportunities but also foster greater transparency and formalization in the property market. With the government’s commitment to digitization — including online verification systems for housing schemes and land records — the environment for investors is expected to become safer and more reliable.
At Sultan’s Group of Companies, we view these reforms as a strong step forward in Pakistan’s economic revival. The reduction in taxes, coupled with a focus on infrastructure and corporate support, will strengthen investor confidence and stimulate both domestic and overseas Pakistani investments. As a leader in real estate development, construction, and property management, we remain committed to creating projects that reflect modern design, premium quality, and long-term investment value.
The Budget 2025-26 is more than just a policy document — it’s a signal of renewed trust in Pakistan’s growth potential. For smart investors and future homeowners, the time to act is now.
