ستھرا پنجاب تجارتی ٹیرف اور بزنس ویسٹ چارجز
Commercial Suthra Punjab tariffs are designed around how much waste a business typically generates. Small shops pay a modest fee, while large malls and factories that generate heavy waste pay more. Rural businesses are charged slightly lower rates than urban ones.
کاروباری اداروں کے لیے فیس اس بات پر منحصر ہے کہ وہ روزانہ کتنا کوڑا پیدا کرتے ہیں۔ چھوٹی دکانوں پر کم چارجز اور بڑی فیکٹریوں، ہوٹلز اور شاپنگ مالز پر نسبتاً زیادہ فیس رکھی گئی ہے۔
