    According to a press statement, the FBR would replace the Active Taxpayer list of 2018 with the list of 2019, and those who did not file returns in tax year 2019 would be removed from the list.

    Meanwhile, the FBR spokesperson said the number of tax filers has risen by 45 percent this year, as compared to previous year.
