Revenue litigation and advisory at these chambers is drawn from long service as Legal Advisor to the Income Tax Department Rawalpindi, FBR, and Customs — assessments, appeals, and related civil proceedings. Advocate Shahina Akbar, ASC, practices from 628 Street 42, Phase 2, Bahria Town, Rawalpindi 46220, serving clients across Bahria Town, Rawalpindi, and Islamabad.
Income Tax Department and FBR
From 2002 to December 2016 she served as Legal Advisor to the Income Tax Department, Rawalpindi, appearing in District Courts, High Court, Supreme Court, and the Federal Service Tribunal. She was also instructed as panel counsel for FBR (2005–December 2016) and Customs (2002–2016). From 2008–2010 she was Legal Advisor to Company Zone Islamabad (now LTU). That combination of departmental advisory work and appellate appearances shapes how assessments and related civil proceedings are reviewed at intake.
Related institutional counsel
Additional appointments include Legal Advisor to First Women Bank Ltd (1998–present), panel counsel to the National Highway Authority (2000–present), Legal Advisor to FGEHF since 2002, and Legal Advisor to the Abandoned Properties Organization (2005–November 2018). These roles sit alongside enrolment as Advocate Supreme Court since 2 April 2011 (District Courts November 1997; High Court December 1999; University of the Punjab LL.B. 1995).
Also instructed as panel counsel for OGDCL (2001–2005) and Zarai Taraqiati Bank Ltd (2004). Chambers do not publish case results or promise outcomes; every revenue instruction begins with a conflict check and a careful reading of the assessment or order under challenge.
