Earlier on June 12, Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb presented federal budget with a total outlay of Rs18.9 trillion.
Pakistan’s budget for the upcoming year aims for a modest 3.6 per cent GDP growth, and sets an ambitious Rs13tr tax collection target, raising taxes on salaried classes and removing tax exemptions for the rest.
Aurangzeb, during the budget presentation, said that the goal was to widen the tax base to avoid burdening existing tax payers.
This year’s budget, like last year’s, is widely considered to be crafted to align with the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) requirements to secure another bailout, this time “larger and longer”.
