How much will a iphone 12 pro max 256gb (us version) pta approved sell for?

[crossfirex]

Anyone having idea that if i was using only physical sim of my iPhone for 60days and it is blocked now then can I use esim for another 60days ? Or the PTA knows what is the second IMEI of the set as well which they have blocked
In order to check the tax amount i did input both IMEIs but didn’t paid the tax and later deleted the application. So I hope they didn’t kept the record of second IMEI with them because whenever i try to check tax they take around 2 days for Dual sim verification by OEM before the system can tell me how much is the tax
So any ideas should i buy jazz esim for another 2 months for rs500/- or it will be waste of money if the esim IMEI is also blocked??

Got the esim it’s working means dual sim phone both imeis dont get blocked after 60days unless u are using both sim slots

Yes, another seller on Instagram also stated that iPhones are about to get expensive as well due increased duties.

[crossfirex]

So I think I should pay the tax of my iPhone instead of further waiting
I think u people are right because just checked tax on Redmi note 10 pro on CNIC and it came out to be rs 16401 which was no slab previously
I think they have already increased tax duty
What u guys say? It’s presently giving 40392/-

Edit: i just checked tax on an iPhone x which was coming 40392/- till Tuesday and its now coming 46277/-

This is poor show by the government just earning money from the easiest possible way as the mobile networks are already digital and the easiest way to catch and tease people if they dont pay such tax. I would request government that before imposing such tax they should have ensured that Apple and Samsung set up a plant in Pakistan. Apple is not like some small company like xiaomi vivo oppo and doesn’t care whether Pakistanis buy their mobile or not. So its only the end user that would suffer and fill the pockets of government. And no company other than Apple provides secure phones so there is no alternate as well!!!
