Association of persons (AOP) taxation: Definition and principles of taxation


AOP definition: Section 2(6) and Section 80(2) (a): includes:
a firm;
a Hindu Undivided Family (HUF);
any artificial judicial person; and
any body of persons formed under a foreign law.
But does not include a company.
Section 2 (32): member in relation to an association of persons, includes a partner in
a firm.
Common examples of AOP: Partnership firm and Joint venture.
Section 84: An association of persons shall be a resident association of persons for a
tax year if the control and management of the affairs of the association is situated
wholly or partly in Pakistan at any time in the year.

Section 92 (1) : AOP is distinct and separate from its members. Hence it is liable to tax
separately from its members.
Section 92 (1): Based on the principle that an income can not be taxed twice, the share
of member (after tax income as clarified by FBR) received from AOP is exempt in the
hands of member.

Calculation of tax liability of a member of an AOP and exceptions


An individual as a member of an AOP (Section 88): However such share of member is
included in income of the member for determination of tax rate i.e. for rate purposes.
Calculation of tax liability of members:
[Tax liability (including share from AOP) Taxable income (including share from AOP)]
X
Taxable income (Without share from AOP)
EXCEPTIONS:
Company as a member of AOP [Proviso to Section 92 (1)]: If a company or companies is /
are member(s) of AOP then the share of such company(ies) shall be excluded from AOPs
total income. Share of company or companies shall be taxed separately at the rate applicable
to respective companies according to their share.
FTR income of AOP: If an AOP has any income that falls under Final Tax Regime (FTR) then
members share from such income shall not be added in the taxable income of the member.
Section 4(4) read with Section 169(2) clearly states that income falling under FTR is not to be
included in any taxable income. Hence FTR income of AOP shall not be included in divisible
income.
Income of joint owners (Section 66): Where any property is owned by two or more persons
and their respective shares are definite and ascertainable then such persons shall not be
assessed as an association of persons in respect of the property. The share of each person in
the income from the property for a tax year shall be taken into account in the computation of
the persons taxable income for that year. Hence AOP cannot generate rental income
except when share of members not identifiable and its covered under income from business.
