LAHORE: The Punjab Revenue Authority (PRA) has imposed fines on several hotels, restaurants, and other businesses across Lahore and other cities for failing to issue sales tax invoices and for not utilizing the Electronic Invoice Monitoring System (E-IMS).
According to a PRA spokesperson, inspection teams conducted visits in Lahore, Gujranwala, and Multan, verifying invoices and checking E-IMS compliance. Multiple establishments were fined and issued warning notices for violations of sales tax and E-IMS regulations.
The spokesperson added that PRA is continuing its province-wide tax awareness campaign to promote compliance with invoicing requirements and E-IMS usage.
Meanwhile, a meeting was held at the PRA Commissioner’s Office in Multan with representatives of the Marriage Halls and Marquees Association. Officials briefed participants on E-IMS implementation, timely tax payments, and registration of new businesses. The association pledged cooperation but highlighted challenges faced due to reduced business activity following recent floods.
