There are high chances of Ramadan Moon Sighting in Pakistan and seeing the moon of Ramadan on Wednesday 22nd March corresponding to 29th Shaban in different parts of Pakistan.
Renowned Astronomical Scientist and former Chairman of University of Karachi Astrophysics and Planetary Science Department Professor Dr. Shahid Qureshi said that this year the moon of Ramadan will be born on March 21 at 11:13 PM. And the next day on the evening of March 22 when the sunset in Karachi will be at 6:43 PM.
He said that the crescent will remain on the horizon for 47 minutes and sunset will be at 7:30. Remember that at the time of sunset, the age of the crescent will be 19 hours and 30 minutes, during which the crescent will be 10 degrees above the horizon and about 0.9 percent of the moon will be illuminated, while the distance of the moon from the earth will be only 3 lakh 82 thousand kilometers.
According to Dr. Shahid Qureshi, in the light of these data, it will be easy to see the crescent through binoculars from the southern regions of the country, including Karachi and Gwadar, on the evening of March 22. However, seeing such a crescent with the naked eye will be a challenge.
He said that if the first fast is observed on March 23, there is no possibility of seeing the Eid moon on the evening of Ramadan 29. However, if the first fast is observed on March 24, then on the evening of Ramadan 29, the Eid moon will be very clear, bright and thick.

iPhone 14 Pro And Pro Max PTA Taxes Increased Again
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has once again increased the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max taxes again. This is actually surprising as the taxes on these phones have increased manifold in recent months. Due to this, the overall price of the phone has increased significantly. Of course, the iPhone is a luxury brand in the smartphone market, and in countries like Pakistan, you have to pay a hefty tax to use it with SIM coverage.
However, such a high price makes it a symbol of luxury and status. This is because only the rich section of the society can afford it, which creates a social divide in the society. Even if you can save enough money to buy an iPhone, you will still have to pay a hefty PTA tax. Here are the newly updated PTA taxes on iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max PTA Tax In Pakistan
Devices
PTA Taxes on Passport (PKR)
PTA Taxes on CNIC (PKR)
iPhone 14 Pro
158,630/-
187,143/-
iPhone 14 Pro Max
158,630/-
187,143/-
Taxes were increased again for a period of only 25 days. In recent months, PTA taxes on imported mobile phones have increased dramatically. Depreciation of rupee and limited reserves of State Bank can be blamed for this increase in taxes. Thus, the current goal of the government is to curb imports to maintain economic stability.
This is a good step for retailers who import phones in bulk but we would not consider it appropriate for a common consumer who imports phones only for personal use. Also, if you have any queries related to these taxes or if you want to know the PTA tax for any other smartphone, you can use our PTA tax calculator.
