HMRC collects Income Tax from individuals through both PAYE and Self-Assessment.

HMRC publish statistics about tax receipts in the monthly statistical bulletin, found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-receipts-for-the-uk. This separates Income Tax received through PAYE and through Self-Assessment.

HMRC also publish statistics about total income, total tax liability and total income from non-PAYE sources, broken down by sex, in the Survey of Personal Incomes, found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/personal-incomes-tables-31-to-311-316-and-317-for-the-tax-year-2019-to-2020/personal-incomes-statistics-2019-to-2020-commentary-for-tables-31-to-311-316-and-317#table-33--distribution-of-total-income-before-and-after-tax-by-gender-tax-year-2019-to-2020.
