On the other hand, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has approved a reduction of electricity starifers by RS1 per year. Kilowatt-time for all consumers in Pakistan.
This movement, part of a wider relief package, is aimed at facilitating the financial burden of consumers, potentially saving up to RS100 billion. The relief is financed through a tax on gas used by captivity works.
This decision follows Pakistan’s recent staff level agreement with the IMF and locks access to an additional $ 1 billion during the extended fund facility (EFF).
