  I.    Yes, Mr. Ali, Mr. Bilal, and Mr. Charlie qualify as associates. Mr. Ali and Mr. Bilal are
        associates because they are brothers and have a written agreement to make joint
        business decisions. Mr. Ali and Mr. Charlie are also associates because Mr. Charlie has
        significant influence over Mr. Ali's business decisions. Therefore, all three individuals are
        associates.
 II.    Yes, Mr. R and Mr. S qualify as associates. As brothers, they are relatives, and according
        to the definition, an individual and their relative are treated as associates. Additionally,
        Mr. R and Mr. S have a written agreement to make joint business decisions, which further
        supports the conclusion that they are associates. The transactions between Company P
        and Company Q at a discounted price also indicate a close relationship between the two
        companies and their CEOs.
(b)
(i) Short term resident individual: As Mr. Khan is a resident individual solely by reason of the
employment and his presence in Pakistan for not more than three years, he is treated as short term
resident individual. Consequently, his foreign source income (rental income) shall be exempt from tax
provided that foreign source income shall not be brought into Pakistan. However, he remitted 30% of
the amount to his bank account in Pakistan so 30% of his rental income shall be taxable while the
remaining i.e. 70% shall be exempt from tax.
(ii) Returning expatriates: As Ahmad is citizen of Pakistan and he was not a resident person in any of the
four preceding tax years i.e. from tax year 2021 to tax year 2024, he is treated as a returning expatriate
for tax year 2025 and his dividend income (foreign source income) shall be exempt from tax. In this case,
there is no implication of amount remitted to Pakistan.
(iii) Foreign source salary income of a resident person: Foreign source salary of Andleeb shall be exempt
from tax if she paid foreign income tax in respect of her salary. In this case, there is no implication of
amount remitted to Pakistan.

resident company. Such a company cannot be treated as non-resident merely on the basis that the control
and management of the affairs of the company were situated abroad. Therefore, APL is a resident
company.
