The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has presented significant demands to Pakistani authorities during recent meetings, calling for an end to the subsidized gas supply to fertilizer factories and advocating for tax reforms across various sectors of the economy.
Sources reveal that the IMF delegation stressed the need to halt the provision of cheap gas to fertilizer plants, citing concerns over its detrimental impact on Pakistan’s fiscal health. Additionally, they emphasized the importance of documenting the real estate sector and integrating it into the tax system to boost revenue collection and enhance transparency.
Discussions between the IMF delegation and Pakistani officials, including the Energy Minister, Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), and representatives from the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), were held in Islamabad to address these pressing economic issues.
IMF officials highlighted the stability of commodity prices in the global market but expressed apprehension over the rising inflation rates in Pakistan. They underscored the urgency of implementing effective economic policies to tackle these challenges head-on.
