Amreli Steels Limited has officially gone live on the Federal Board of Revenue’s (FBR) digital invoicing system through its integration with the Haball platform, marking a notable milestone in Pakistan’s push for corporate digitization and tax compliance.
The development reflects growing adoption of e-invoicing by large corporations in Pakistan as the government advances its digital compliance agenda. By moving invoicing processes onto a centralized platform, companies can ensure real-time reporting, enhanced transparency, and streamlined financial operations that reduce the risks of discrepancies and manual errors.
For Amreli Steels, one of Pakistan’s leading steel manufacturers, this integration underscores its commitment to embracing innovation in compliance and operations. The company’s transition to the FBR-mandated digital invoicing framework not only ensures regulatory alignment but also demonstrates leadership in the industrial sector by setting an example for other large-scale enterprises.
The integration was made possible through Haball, a fintech firm specializing in enterprise digitization and payment automation. Haball’s platform is designed to provide corporations with digital solutions that enhance operational efficiency and ensure compliance with evolving tax frameworks. The collaboration between Amreli Steels and Haball highlights the crucial role of fintech companies in bridging the gap between regulatory requirements and corporate adoption of technology.
Teams from both organizations played a pivotal role in bringing the project to fruition. From Amreli Steels, key contributors included Salman Ali Khan, Kaleem Shaikh, Umair Anees, M-Sarib Ansari, Abdul Rehman, and Ali Asgher. On Haball’s side, Saqib Bashir, Farrukh Iftikhar, Muhammad Ali Khan, Burhan Khanzada, and Muddassir Ali Rana spearheaded the integration, ensuring seamless alignment with FBR’s digital invoicing architecture.
Industry observers note that the implementation of digital invoicing in Pakistan is a critical step toward broadening the country’s tax net and improving transparency within corporate transactions. For businesses, adopting digital invoicing reduces administrative burdens, facilitates better record-keeping, and minimizes compliance risks. For the state, it creates a robust system of oversight, enabling accurate tax collection and reducing avenues for underreporting.
The FBR has been gradually enforcing digital invoicing requirements for large enterprises as part of its long-term strategy to modernize Pakistan’s tax regime. With companies like Amreli Steels now live on the system, momentum is expected to build across other sectors, encouraging more firms to digitize their compliance frameworks.
Haball’s involvement in this transition is especially significant as it reflects how Pakistan’s fintech ecosystem is increasingly driving digital adoption across industries. By offering platforms that combine automation, compliance, and data-driven insights, fintech firms like Haball are positioning themselves as essential partners in the digital transformation of Pakistan’s economy.
This development also sends a clear signal to the wider business community that regulatory digitization is no longer optional but an integral part of operating in today’s corporate landscape. Firms that adapt early stand to gain by reducing inefficiencies and aligning themselves with global best practices in governance and financial reporting.
As more organizations integrate into FBR’s digital invoicing system, Pakistan’s corporate ecosystem is likely to become more transparent, compliant, and resilient. For Amreli Steels, the move represents not just a technological upgrade, but a step toward a smarter and more connected future in line with the country’s evolving regulatory framework.
