LCCI Foresees Hard Times, Pushes for Fair Tax Reforms

ISLAMABAD — Pakistan’s economy is heading into a difficult year, with fiscal year 2025-26 expected to present serious challenges, warned Ali Imran Asif, Senior Executive Committee Member of the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI). Asif cautioned that although the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has improved tax collections, the gains are largely coming from higher taxes on existing taxpayers rather than through expansion of the tax base. With government spending continuing to rise, meeting the fiscal deficit target of 3.9% set for the year could prove difficult. He highlighted that Pakistan remains under close scrutiny from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which is monitoring adherence to fiscal discipline. Despite being a populous nation with significant resources, he noted, the country is not advancing at the pace needed for sustainable growth.
