SECP has not published its own consolidated, up-to-date PDF of this Schedule. The text below is the last text SECP did consolidate, which already incorporates S.R.O. 1169(I)/2017 and S.R.O. 888(I)/2019. Unlike the Fourth Schedule, neither of the two further 2024 amendment notifications available at the time of writing (S.R.O. 1278(I)/2024 and S.R.O. 1511(I)/2024) touches the Fifth Schedule — both amend the Fourth Schedule only — so no further changes have been applied here. Verify against the source notifications linked below before relying on this for a filing.
