PITB made this announcement on Twitter.

We have come a long way in e-Stamping — Until December 31, 2020 total revenue collection using e-Stamping System has exceeded PKR 201 billion. The number of transactions are over 10.9 million and 8.1 million e-stamps have been issued.

E-stamping ensures streamlining property and business transaction in Punjab. It is to minimize the fraud and fake stamp-papers purchase and sale. PITB has also developed a mobile app for auditors so they can easily verify e-Stamp paper and Challan-32-A. Name of the buyer, seller and the person through whom stamps are being purchased are entered into the system along with their CNIC numbers. PITB has also built a central database for the e-Stamping system which has made the verification process easier for citizens.

PITB in collaboration with other stakeholders has launched a number of apps to facilitate the people of Punjab. Just recently, PITB has introduced a “Rasta App” to help you drive in thick fog. Similarly, to facilitate the teachers, PITB and SED collectively launched the Online Retirement system. All these projects are playing a key role in making the country digital.
