Interest payments and uplift spending strain Pakistan's fiscal position in FY27 first quarter

سود کی ادائیگیوں اور ترقیاتی اخراجات نے مالی سال 27 کی پہلی سہ ماہی میں پاکستان کی مالی حالت دباؤ میں ڈال دی

ब्याज भुगतान और विकास खर्च ने वित्त वर्ष 27 की पहली तिमाही में पाकिस्तान की वित्तीय स्थिति पर दबाव डाला

Interest payments and uplift spending strain Pakistan's fiscal position in FY27 first quarter

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Pakistan's fiscal buffers weakened in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 despite a 90 percent cut in subsidies and tax collection above target, the finance ministry's monthly economic update says.
  • The overall fiscal surplus narrowed to 0.8 percent of GDP, or 1.198 trillion rupees, from 1.7 percent a year earlier, while the primary surplus fell to 1.6 percent from 2.3 percent, because interest payments jumped 36.6 percent and development spending surged 69.5 percent.
  • Tax revenue still beat its target and the Federal Board of Revenue's collection grew 3.6 percent in July and August, while total spending rose 20.7 percent.
  • وزارت خزانہ کی ماہانہ اقتصادی رپورٹ کے مطابق سبسڈی میں 90 فیصد کٹوتی اور ہدف سے زیادہ ٹیکس وصولی کے باوجود مالی سال 2027 کی پہلی سہ ماہی میں پاکستان کی مالی حالت کمزور ہوئی۔ مجموعی مالی سرپلس 1.7 فیصد سے گھٹ کر جی ڈی پی کا 0.8 فیصد یعنی 1.198 کھرب روپے رہ گیا، جبکہ پرائمری سرپلس 2.3 فیصد سے گھٹ کر 1.6 فیصد ہو گیا، کیونکہ سود کی ادائیگیاں 36.6 فیصد بڑھ گئیں اور ترقیاتی اخراجات 69.5 فیصد بڑھ گئے۔ ٹیکس آمدنی پھر بھی ہدف سے زیادہ رہی اور فیڈرل بورڈ آف ریونیو کی وصولی جولائی اور اگست میں 3.6 فیصد بڑھی، جبکہ مجموعی اخراجات 20.7 فیصد بڑھے۔ بیرونی محاذ پر ادائیگیوں کا توازن ایک سال پہلے 274 ملین ڈالر خسارے سے 3.1 ارب ڈالر سرپلس میں آ گیا، اور اسٹیٹ بینک کے ذخائر 16 اکتوبر تک 21.5 ارب ڈالر تھے۔ وزارت اکتوبر 2026 کے لیے مہنگائی 9.5 سے 10.5 فیصد کے درمیان رہنے کی توقع رکھتی ہے۔
  • वित्त मंत्रालय की मासिक आर्थिक रिपोर्ट के अनुसार सब्सिडी में 90 प्रतिशत कटौती और लक्ष्य से अधिक कर वसूली के बावजूद वित्त वर्ष 2027 की पहली तिमाही में पाकिस्तान की वित्तीय स्थिति कमज़ोर हुई। कुल वित्तीय अधिशेष 1.7 प्रतिशत से घटकर जीडीपी का 0.8 प्रतिशत यानी 1.198 खरब रुपये रह गया, जबकि प्राथमिक अधिशेष 2.3 प्रतिशत से घटकर 1.6 प्रतिशत हो गया, क्योंकि ब्याज भुगतान 36.6 प्रतिशत बढ़ गए और विकास खर्च 69.5 प्रतिशत बढ़ गया। कर राजस्व फिर भी लक्ष्य से अधिक रहा और संघीय राजस्व बोर्ड की वसूली जुलाई और अगस्त में 3.6 प्रतिशत बढ़ी, जबकि कुल खर्च 20.7 प्रतिशत बढ़ा। बाहरी मोर्चे पर भुगतान संतुलन एक साल पहले 274 मिलियन डॉलर घाटे से 3.1 अरब डॉलर अधिशेष में आ गया, और स्टेट बैंक के भंडार 16 अक्टूबर तक 21.5 अरब डॉलर थे। मंत्रालय अक्टूबर 2026 के लिए महँगाई 9.5 से 10.5 प्रतिशत के बीच रहने की उम्मीद रखता है।

Tax revenue still beat its target and the Federal Board of Revenue's collection grew 3.6 percent in July and August, while total spending rose 20.7 percent. On the external side, the balance of payments swung to a 3.1 billion dollar surplus from a 274 million dollar deficit a year earlier, and State Bank reserves stood at 21.5 billion dollars by October 16. The ministry expects headline inflation between 9.5 and 10.5 percent for October 2026.
