SN009·Cotton spinners purchasing from cotton ginners

Sector-specific
Sale type
Cotton Ginners

Submit this string verbatim. FBR compares the sale type literally — a normalised, retyped, or re-cased variant is rejected even when everything else on the line is correct.

What it covers

Purchases from registered cotton ginners under the textile sector's specific treatment, which involves withholding at source rather than ordinary charging.

Who needs to test this

Taxpayers registered in the textile sector.

Payload notes

  • Sales tax withheld at source must be either zero or exactly equal to the sales tax — no other value is accepted.
  • The buyer must be registered. Unregistered buyers are not permitted on this sale type at all.

Common pitfalls

  • The withholding rule is unusually strict: a partial withholding amount fails even though it might be commercially sensible.
