    In an effort to enhance tax revenues and broaden the tax base, the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has made a bold decision aimed at non-filers. As part of this initiative, the FBR intends to implement a significant increase in withholding tax, raising it from 2.5 percent to a substantial 90 percent for non-compliant individuals. For instance, sources familiar with the matter indicate that if a non-filer tops up their mobile phone with Rs100, Rs90 will be deducted and remitted to the tax authority. Additionally, continued non-compliance will result in additional penalties, with a 90 percent tax imposed on each new SIM card purchase by non-filers. This tax will also be applicable to subsequent recharges and usage of calling and mobile data plans. The FBR has recently released lists identifying over 500,000 non-filers, directing the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) and telecom companies to block their SIM cards. Presently, approximately 11,500 SIM cards have been blocked, with further restrictions anticipated in the days ahead. Telecom companies have until May 15 to block SIM cards belonging to all identified non-filers. This action follows the FBR's identification of millions of potential taxpayers who have failed to meet their tax obligations. #news #Pakistan #Tax #Nonfilers #Mobilerecharge #PTA #fbr

    Palestinian Muslims marked a tense and sombre last Friday of Ramadan in Jerusalem as Israeli police controlling the entrance to the Al-Aqsa mosque – the third holiest site in Islam – attacked worshippers. Some 120,000 people descended on the shrine, which dominates the Old City, officials said, with grand mufti Muhammad Ahmad Hussein urging the faithful to brave the heavy police presence because of the war in Gaza. Adli al-Agha, 53, from Jerusalem, told AFP that many people “had to flee dawn prayers” after Israeli police deployed a mini-drone spraying tear gas to disperse people chanting “Glory to God”. “In our soul and our blood, we sacrifice for you Al-Aqsa,” worshippers declared, according to Agha. Police said they arrested eight people for inciting terrorism. Yasser Basha, from Tulkarem in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, said police were restricting entrance to the mosque to the old and the very young. Only men over 55 and women over 50 were being allowed inside, he said. “If it wasn’t for the war, things would have been much easier,” he added. #news #pakistan #gaza #palestine #israel #war #jerusalem #police #worshippers #people

    Users with big followings will receive a free subscription to X, formerly Twitter – and the platform’s famous blue check, the company said in another policy U-turn. Before Musk, the blue check mark was used as a verification system for major accounts including celebrities, institutions and journalists. But Musk saw the system as unfair to regular users and overhauled the blue checks so that they went only to paying subscribers, which meant thousands of holders were stripped of the feature. Late Wednesday, some users were surprised and even angry to find the blue tick reinstated. A message from the platform explained that they were given free subscriptions because they were an “influential member” of X. The site added that it “reserves the right to cancel the complimentary subscription in its sole discretion.” #news #pakistan #X #twitter #users #elonmusk #policy #subscribers #right #cancel

    Facebook and Instagram giant Meta on Friday said it will begin labeling AI-generated media beginning in May, as it tries to reassure users and governments over the risks of deepfakes. The social media juggernaut added that it will no longer remove manipulated images and audio that don’t otherwise break its rules, relying instead on labeling and contextualization, so as to not infringe on freedom of speech. The changes come as a response to criticism from the tech giant’s oversight board, which independently reviews Meta’s content moderation decisions. The board in February requested that Meta urgently overhaul its approach to manipulated media given the huge advances in AI and the ease of manipulating media into highly convincing deepfakes. The board’s warning came amid fears of rampant misuse of artificial intelligence-powered applications for disinformation on platforms in a pivotal election year not only in the United States but worldwide. Meta’s new “Made with AI” labels will identify content created or altered with AI, including video, audio, and images. Additionally, a more prominent label will be used for content deemed at high risk of misleading the public. “We agree that providing transparency and additional context is now the better way to address this content,” Monika Bickert, Meta’s Vice President of Content Policy, said in a blog post. “The labels will cover a broader range of content in addition to the manipulated content that the Oversight Board recommended labeling,” she added. #news #pakistan #meta #AI #content #labels #range #warning #elections #vote

    Tesla has made a significant shift in its strategy, announcing the cancellation of its long-awaited affordable electric car, a move that has left investors and consumers stunned. The decision, revealed by three reliable sources familiar with the matter and corroborated by company messages obtained by Reuters, marks a departure from Tesla’s earlier mission of bringing affordable electric vehicles to the masses. The automaker, instead, will pivot its resources towards the development of self-driving robotaxis, utilizing the same small-vehicle platform, according to insiders. This strategic redirection signifies a significant deviation from Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s previous commitments and vision outlined in the company’s initial “master plan” in 2006. #news #pakistan #tesla #elonmusk #AI #robot #taxi #vision #company #ev
