The excise department collected Rs4 billion under the head of FBR taxation. 

Excise Director Bilal Azam said that increase in tax collection was due to facilities provided to the people. 

“The department was able to collect more taxes due to door-to-door registration, online token tax and token tax collection during road checking,” he added.
