No Tax Fair, No Problem! bKash Simplifies Online Tax Payment

The long lines under the blazing heat, the sweaty crowd, and the hours spent standing in a cramped space. These are some of the many things Parvez Islam dreads when the due date for the income tax payment rolls around. When he got to know that the tax payment fair will not be held this year due to COVID-19, Parvez was relieved. He was now free from having to endure the stressful payment process this year. However, this just conjured a new headache for him since he still has to complete his payment somehow.

He was losing sleep over the matter before thinking to consult his colleague regarding it. Without a moment of hesitation, his colleague suggested that he use bKash’s online income tax payment system. “I noticed you already use bKash for your Credit Card Payments and Mobile Recharge. They have simplified online tax payment as well!”, he said enthusiastically.

Parvez was pleasantly surprised to know that bKash has a dedicated income tax payment system that allows users like him to complete their payment right from the bKash app. It is a simple and straightforward procedure that requires nothing but the taxpayer’s TIN for verification. 

Moreover, with the bKash App, a taxpayer can even skip the procedure of registering online. All they have to do is sign in as a guest user and fill in the necessary details where prompted, making it extremely convenient. With that said, registered users will also experience the same seamless procedure when paying their income tax.

Upon clicking on the Tax Payment option from the App’s home screen, you will be redirected to the NBR website portal for income tax payment. Once you enter your TIN to verify and can confirm the necessary details, select the payment option, upon which you are prompted to choose the suitable payment type and enter the designated tax amount. After you ensure that your personal and payment details are correct, choose to “Pay with bKash”, leading you to a secured payment gateway. Enter your bKash account number; type in the verification code sent to that number, and finally, your account 5-digit PIN Code to confirm the transaction. Once the payment is completed you will receive a payment confirmation along with an e-challan that needs to be submitted with tax files. You can preserve the challan for future reference. It is that simple!

Parvez could not even believe it took him a mere 5 minutes to pay his income tax and felt like a huge weight had just lifted off of his shoulders.
