EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
01. GROWTH AND INVESTMENT
Pakistans economy has shown great resilience
against internal and external shocks of very high
intensity and grew robustly at 5.8 percent in 200708, as against 6.8 percent last year and this years
target of 7.2 percent. The Commodity Producing
Sector (CPS) registered a growth of 3.2 percent in
2007-08 as against 6.0 percent last year owing
mainly to the lackluster performance of agriculture
and manufacturing. While agriculture grew by 1.5
percent, the manufacturing sector posted a modest
growth of 5.4 percent in 2007-08. The large scale
manufacturing (LSM) sector witnessed a modest
growth of 4.8 percent, down from 8.6 percent last
year. The manufacturing sector has been hard hit
by political instability, frequent eruptions of
incidents detrimental to law and order and the
acute energy shortages. In unison with increasing
prices for fuel and energy, all these factors have
caused slower growth in LSM. Growth in the small
scale manufacturing sub-sector moderated to 7.5
percent in 2007-08 from 8.1 percent during 200607.

Chapter 02
AGRICULTURE
Notwithstanding its declining share in GDP,
agriculture is still the single largest sector,
contributing 21 percent to GDP and employing 44
percent of the workforce. More than two-thirds of
Pakistans population lives in rural areas and their
livelihood continues to revolve around agriculture
and allied activities. Like in other developing
countries, poverty in Pakistan is largely a rural
phenomenon;
therefore,
development
of
agriculture will be a principal vehicle for
alleviating rural poverty. Empirical evidence
suggests that higher growth in agriculture on a
sustained basis had a lasting impact on poverty
1
reduction in Asia in the 1970s and the 1980s . In
later decades the impact of agriculture on poverty
reduction became weaker as the Asian countries in
general, and South Asia in particular, began to
witness productivity gains stagnanting on account
of structural issues, including limited investment in
research and extension services. The recent global
food crises, while creating difficulties for net food
importing countries, is equally providing
opportunities for developing countries like
Pakistan to get their acts together and benefit from
the current situation by giving more serious
attention to agriculture.
For Pakistan, the notion of food security should
move beyond a relatively static focus on food
availability.
Higher
agricultural
growth,
particularly emanating from the crop sector, will
provide food security by increasing supply,
stabilizing prices, and raising incomes of poorfarm households. To benefit from the current
global food crises, Pakistan needs to change its
policy-orientation from the current practice of

Agriculture
During the current fiscal year (2007-08), the
availability of water for Kharif 2007 (for the crops
such as rice, sugarcane and cotton) has been 5.5
percent more than the normal supplies and 12.2
percent more than last years Kharif (see Table
2.2). The water availability during Rabi season (for
major crop such as wheat), as on end-March 2008
was, however, estimated at 27.9 MAF, which was
23.4 percent less than the normal availability, and
10.5 percent less than last years Rabi, adversely
affecting the wheat crop, production of which has
decreased by 6.6 percent over the last year.
I. Crop Situation
There are two principal crop seasons in Pakistan,
namely the "Kharif", the sowing season of which
begins in April-June and harvesting during

a) Major Crops:
i) Cotton:
Pakistans economy is mainly dependent on cotton
and textile sector. It is, however, realized that
under the WTO post - quota scenario a larger crop
would pay the real dividends only when its quality
matches the spinners demand at home and abroad.
All the stakeholders are, therefore, being motivated
to play their due role in transforming the cotton
pricing and marketing system from subjective
assessment to objective valuation of seed cotton
and lint through adoption of cotton standardization
and grading mechanism already developed and
introduced by the government.
World cotton production is estimated at 118.8
million bales in 2007-08 - 3 percent lower than last

b) Minor Crops
i) Oilseeds
The major oilseed crops include cottonseed,
rapeseed/mustard, sunflower and canola etc. These
crops are grouped in two categories viz.
conventional and non-conventional oilseed crops.
Rapeseed-mustard, groundnut and sesame are
conventional crops and are being grown in the
country for a long period. Sunflower, soybean and
safflower are non-conventional crops. There are
also some oilseed crops, which are mainly used for
industrial purposes, such as linseed and castor. The
main source of local edible oil production is
cottonseed and sunflower.

ii) Other Minor Crops:
The production of all the crops increased except
potato which declined by 3.8 percent. The
production of all the pulses i.e. mung, masoor and
mash increased by 28.4 percent, 13.8 percent and
8.8 percent, respectively. The production of
chillies and onion increased by 96.1 percent and
13.8 percent, respectively. The foremost reason for
this increase of chillies crop this year is due to
decrease in production by 43.4 percent and in area
by 32.4 percent last year. Area and production of
minor crops are given in Table 2.10.
Improved Seed:
It is generally accepted that high quality seed is the
most effective input for improving productivity.
Seed is an important component in agriculture
productivity system. Seed has the unique position
among various agricultural inputs because the
effectiveness of all other inputs mainly depends on
the potential of seeds. Seed is a high technology
product and is an innovation most readily adapted.
Improving access to good quality seed is a critical
requirement for sustainable agricultural growth and
food security. Effective use of improved seed can
result in higher agricultural production and
increase net incomes of farming families, which
has a positive impact on rural poverty Hence,
availability of quality seed of improved varieties is
essential to yield the targets specified by the
government for a particular year
The Federal Seed Certification and Registration
Department (FSC&RD) is an attached department
of Ministry of Food, Agriculture & Livestock
(MINFAL) and is engaged in providing seed
certification coverage to public and private sector
seed companies of Pakistan alongwith seed quality
control services through its 30 seed testing

Under the White Revolution Scheme, two Strategic
Partnership Agreements have been executed
between ZTBL and M/S Nestle Pakistan Limited
and M/s Pakistan Dairy Development Company.
Under this participatory approach, dairy sector
would be modernized with a view to increase milk
supply, mitigate poverty and improve the living
standard of the rural population. The Bank has
earmarked funds to the tune of Rs. 5,000 million
for financing of 50,000 animals (buffaloes and
imported cows) during the five years period (20072011).
M/s. Nestle Pakistan would help to select and
identify good clients for the Bank to improve
quality breed of foreign and local dairy animals.
Technical guidance would be provided to the
farmers through Nestle Veterinary Doctors. The
Company would purchase milk through its network

and make weekly payment of milk sale to the Bank
for the adjustment of loan. M/s Pakistan Dairy
Development Company will also help the Bank in
the selection of clients and processing of loan
cases. Initially the scheme will be for
modernization of 5000 farms during 5 years period
involving Rs 700 million. Under the scheme 1000
farms would be covered on yearly basis. There
would be maximum loan limit of Rs 1 million per
borrower/party.
b) Sairab Pakistan Scheme
Water plays vital role in improving per acre yield.
Increase in water supply being a key input is
required to raise cropping intensity and enhance
the income of the farmers. Since inception, ZTBL
has financed over 144,478 tube wells by disbursing
over Rs 14,713 million. For raising irrigated area
to accelerate the economic growth and to facilitate
the farmers, ZTBL will also provide loans to
farmers for installation of tubewells/turbines.
c) Red Meat Financing Scheme
In line with the policy of Government for
accelerated development of livestock sector, the
bank has announced a Red Meat Financing
Scheme for fattening/rearing of sheep/goat. This
scheme will address the credit need of livestock
farmers especially the small farmers. Initially the
scheme is implemented in Multan, Faisalabad,
Dera Ghazi Khan, Dera Ismail Khan, Bhakkar,
Nawabshah, Dadu, Sukkur, Peshawar, Lasbella,
Loralai and Khuzdar Districts branches having
good potential and repayment culture. The loans
are advanced @ Rs 5000/- per Sheep/Goat, RS
3500/- for Teddy Goat and Rs 1200/- per Kid
(Sheep/Goat). Rearing expenses are borne by the
borrowers from their own resources.
III. Forestry
Forests are an essential part of our economy
through their significant role in land conservation,
regulation of flow of water for irrigation and power
generation, reduction of sedimentation in water
channels and reservoirs and maintenance of
ecological balance. Forestry is also essential for
maintaining a sustained supply of wood and wood

V. Fisheries
The share of fisheries in GDP, though small, but it
does contribute to the foreign exchange earnings
through export besides providing proteins to the
populace. The nutritional value of fish is very high,
with a protein content, low cholesterol content and
many useful dietary supplements. Government of
Pakistan is taking a number of steps to improve

Amendments in labour laws and factories act to make them ILO and W.T.O compliant.
A Campaign for the production of contamination free cotton was launched with amendment in Cotton Control
Act, 1966. As a result the foreign matter in cotton has been reduced from 60gm per bale to 5 gm per bale.
Sales Tax on the import and local supply of major inputs/raw materials utilized in the manufacturing regime of
textile industry, has been zero rated.
Import duty on raw material, sub-components and components used in the local manufacturing of textile plants
and machinery for export sector has been reduced to zero%.
Turn over tax has been reduced to 1% on retailers of specified textile fabrics and articles of apparel including
readymade garments or fashion wear. The 15% Sales Tax levied earlier on retailer has been reduced to 2%.
Both these taxes will be final tax liability.
Custom Duty, Sales Tax and withholding tax on raw materials for the manufacture of textile has been zero rated
at the import stage to do away with the duty drawback/refund claims under the revised and simplified DTRE
Scheme.
R&D support has been given to Garment Exports at 6%, Dyed/Printed & White, Home Textile at 3% &
dyed/printed home textile at 5% of the FOB value.
MINTEX has launched studies by International consultants M/s. Gherzi to conduct a study based on assessment
of the cost of production in competing countries and the subsidies being provided by their respective
Governments in order to enable us to develop a strategy to enhance competitiveness of the Industry in Pakistan.
In order to meet the shortage of raw cotton, import of raw cotton was allowed from Wagah Border.

c. Towel Industry
a. Hosiery Industry
There are about 12,000 knitting machines
spread all over the country. The capacity
utilization is approx 70 percent. Besides
locally manufactured machinery, liberal
import of machinery under different modes
is also being made and the capacity based
on exports is being developed. This sector
has tremendous export potential. However,
the sub-sector remained under pressure
from its competitors during the year under
review and recorded a decline of 8.0
percent in exports as against last year amid
tough competition emerging from the
newly-inducted members to the European
Union (EU) belonging to the former East
European bloc.
b. Readymade Garment Industry
The Garment Industry provides highest
value addition in Textile Sector. This
industry is distributed in small, medium
and large scale units most of them having
50 machines and below; however, large
units are now coming up in the organized
sector of the industry. The industry enjoys
the facilities of duty free import of
machinery and income tax exemption.
During the year under review the sector
recorded a healthy growth in exports
d. Canvas
Canvas exports can be subdivided into five
categories i.e. tarpaulins, awnings & sun
blinds, tents, sails, pneumatic mattresses
and camping goods. Although all of the
different types of canvas are being
manufactured in Pakistan but it has
acquired a degree of specialization in the
manufacture of tarpaulins and canvas.
Being the highest raw cotton consuming
sector its production capacity is more than
100 million square meters. Around 60
percent of its production is exported while
40 percent is consumed locally by Armed
Forces Food Department. During (JulyMarch) 2007-08 canvas exports showed a
decline of 3.1 percent. Intense competition
from its competitors in the international
market, country-wide incidents of violence
and chaos following the assassination of
former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto as
well as prolonged Eid holidays in
December, 2007 were the main reason for

FISCAL DEVELOPMENT
I. Introduction
Fiscal year 2007-08 proved to be a difficult year
for Pakistan, with several political and economic
events transpiring unexpectedly. These events
include heightened political tensions, soaring
global oil prices, the international and domestic
food inflation phenomena, a slowdown in global
economic activity, and the troubled law and order
situation prevalent in the country. However, the
most important aspect was the non-responsive
stance on account of political expediency, that is,
not responding to the policy challenges emerging
on Pakistans economic scene during most part of
the fiscal year 2007-08. All these events have had
adverse consequences for fiscal discipline. Because
of the instability experienced at the onset of 200708, the fiscal deficit is expected to miss the target
of 4.0 percent of GDP this year by a wide margin.
The hard earned macroeconomic stability
underpinned by fiscal discipline appears to have
been evaporated. In other words, financial
indiscipline during the outgoing fiscal year has
already caused severe macroeconomic imbalances,
for which, Pakistan is likely to pay a heavy price in
terms of deceleration in growth and investment,
and the associated rise in the levels of poverty;
widening of current account deficit and the
attendant rise in public and external debt; a loss of
foreign exchange reserves and the associated
pressure on the exchange rate; and most
importantly, higher inflation and the associated rise
in interest rates.
A sound fiscal position is vital for achieving
macroeconomic stability, which is increasingly
recognized as being critical for sustained economic
growth and poverty reduction. The sooner Pakistan
improves its fiscal position by making sharp fiscal
adjustments, the lesser the price it is likely to pay
for its fiscal indiscipline. A sharp fiscal adjustment
can reduce large external current account

Note 1: The base of Pakistans GDP has been changed from 1980-81 to 1999-2000, therefore, wherever GDP appears in denominator the numbers
prior to 1999-2000 are not comparable.
Statistical discrepancy (both positive and negative) has been adjusted in arriving at overall fiscal deficit numbers.
* Include earthquake related expenditure worth 0.8 and 0.5 percent of GDP for 2005-06 and 2006-07 respectively.

V. Trends in Expenditure
The Governments plan of better fiscal
transparency
and
improving
expenditure
management is still at the forefront of policy
despite the impediments faced by the country
during this fiscal year. The total expenditure of the
government has remained more or less stable in a
narrow band of 17 to 18 percent of GDP during the
last nine years. There has been a substantial

negative 4.4 percent in the last four years (200408). During 2004-08, the depreciation of rupee
along-with higher inflation contributed to negative
incidence of real cost of borrowing. The low
implied cost of external borrowing has contributed
to overall declining trend in real cost of borrowing
during the last eight years.

X. Domestic Debt
Most developing countries have a relatively small
banking sector which limits the availability of
loanable funds. Borrowing from domestic financial
sources has several advantages including:
avoidance of exchange rate risk, lower liquidity
risk and ability to deflate debt through higher
inflation. However, excessive borrowing by the
public sector could lead to crowding out of the
private sector as well as high interest rates and
inflation. With the expansion of the financial sector
in Pakistan, the government has relied more on
borrowings from the domestic sector in recent
years, reflecting in an increase in the share of
domestic debt in total debt, standing in at 53.8
percent up to March 2008.
By end-June 2007 total domestic debt stood at Rs.
2610.2 billion which was estimated at 30 percent
of GDP. The outstanding stock of domestic debt
rose by Rs 409.9 billion and stood at Rs. 3020.1
billion by end-March 2008 or 30.3 percent of GDP.
The domestic debt has increased by 15.7 percent

the remaining Rs 50 billion was to come from nonbanking sources. The domestic and external shocks
not only increased the size of the fiscal deficit but
they also changed the composition of financing.
The borrowing requirements increased from Rs.
324 billion (the net of privatization proceeds) to
Rs. 683.4 billion (with no privatization proceeds)an increase of 111 percent. External resource
inflows were adversely affected by these shocks

Monetary Management
The Money market in Pakistan has developed
substantially since the process of liberalization of
the financial system began in the early 1990s.A
vibrant inter-bank money market not only helps to
transmit monetary policy signals but also provides
stability to financial institutions through meeting
short-term liquidity requirement with relative ease
and at competitive rates. The focus of SBPs
monetary management in FY08 was to improve the
transmission of policy rates to the retail rates by

Insurance Sector
The role of the insurance sector is significant in
promoting the stability, not just of the financial
sector, but also of the overall macroeconomic
environment as it provides protection against
uncertainty to economic agents by an equitable
transfer of risk. Life insurance companies in
particular, due to the long term nature of their
premiums, are also among the large institutional
investors for capital and money market
instruments.
The insurance sector in Pakistan consisting of life,
non-life and the sole reinsurance company
(PRCL), has seen considerable improvements since
2001 on account of rise in the demand for
insurance by corporate, households and public

CAPITAL MARKETS
Introduction
Capital markets are key elements of a modern,
market-based economic system as they serve as the
channel for flow of long term financial resources
from the savers of capital to the borrowers of
capital. Efficient capital markets are hence
essential for economic growth and prosperity. With
growing globalization of economies, the
international capital markets are also becoming
increasingly integrated. While such integration is
positive for global economic growth, the downside
risk is the contagion effect of financial crisis,
especially if its origin lies in the bigger markets.
The US sub-prime mortgage crisis, which started
in 2007 and continues to persist in 2008, is an
example of such contagion which has impacted
capital markets all across the globe. With subprime mortgage related losses already running into
several hundreds of billions of dollars, investors
risk aversion has increased sharply which has
adversely impacted the global financial markets.
Pakistans stock market has shown considerable
immunity to the recent global turbulence and has
been classified as one of the fastest growing
markets in emerging economies. Local and foreign
investors confidence in the investment
environment of Pakistan has boosted the index to
peak highs in recent years. The Pakistans
benchmarked stock market index-the Karachi
Stock Exchange- KSE-100 index has increased
from 1,521 points on June 30, 2000 to 12,130.5
points on May 30, 2008 a rise of over 10,610
points or an increase of 697.6 percent. Similarly
Aggregate Market Capitalization (AMC) has
increased from Rs 392 billion ($ 7.6 billion) on
June 30, 2000 to Rs 3,746 billion ($ 56 billion) on
May 30, 2008, showing a rise of over Rs 3,354
billion ($ 48.4 billion) or an increase of 855.6
percent. The listed capital at KSE has increased

Sector-wise Performance:
Extraordinary performance in the stock markets
during the outgoing fiscal year was driven by some
major sectors of the economy including fuel &
energy, banks and other financial institutions,
chemicals and pharmaceuticals and engineering.
Performances of some of the major trading groups
are discussed below:
Banks & Other Financial Institutions In 2007, a
total of 168 companies were listed with the KSE,
67.86 percent (114 companies) of which showed
reasonable profits amounting to Rs. 157 billion.
There are six sub groups in this group namely:
commercial banks, investment companies, leasing
companies, modarabas, mutual funds and
insurance. During the year, this group experienced
modest growth. Its market capitalization increased
by 26.5 percent but share index declined by 10.6
percent. The aggregate market capitalization stood
at Rs. 1965 billion at the end of April 2008. A
decline in the credit cycle, higher interest rates, and
cautious lending stance given the experience with
loan defaults in some sectors are primary reasons
for the slowdown. However, even though nonperforming loans may have increased, the credit
quality is still much better than other regional
countries with lower NPL ratio. Also, SBPs
regulation relating to withdrawal of forced sales
value and decreasing the time period for
classifying personal loans and consumer loans as
Loss is likely to compel banks to be careful about

The total funds mobilized during July-March 200708 in the three stock exchanges (KSE, LSE & ISE)
amounted to Rs 105.4 billion, as compared to Rs
119.2 billion in the last fiscal year. The total
turnover of shares in the three stock exchanges
during the same period was 63.2 billion, compared
to 77.4 billion shares in the last fiscal year.
National Commodity Exchange Limited:
National Commodity Exchange Limited (NCEL) is
the Pakistans first electronic commodities futures
exchange which commenced its operations in
2007. NCEL is a technology driven demutualized
on-line commodity futures exchange which
employs modern risk management techniques
based on Value-at-Risk. NCEL plans to provide
platform for market participants to trade
commodity futures and in the first phase has
started trades for three month gold future contracts.
In addition to this, NCEL has formally started rice
trading based on three-month future contracts. The
Commission has also asked it to broaden its
shareholder base by 46.82 percent as part of the
Demutualization process being conducted by
SECP.
Debt Capital Market
As compared to other emerging markets in Asia,
Pakistans debt market remains at infancy, in both
relative and absolute terms. The slow growth of the
domestic debt market can partially be attributed to
its late start. The government established an
auction-based market for T-bills in 1991, and longterm securities did not appear until 1992. The
corporate debt market followed a few years later in
1995.

requirement. Derivative market, which is an
important pillar for effective risk management,
though still in its immaturity, has taken off. At
present, interest rate swaps and forward rate
agreements are allowed in Pak rupee and other
currencies after SBPs approval. Currently five
banks have been given the status of authorized
derivative dealers by SBP. These new products
will add sophistication to the markets and attract
new investors in addition to providing hedging
tools for existing investors.
Investor Base:
One of the major risks to financial stability is the
overall lack of financial sector diversification in
the country. Of the total financial sector assets,
insurance companies and mutual funds account for
three percent and are largely sponsored by banks,
while other non-bank financial companies
accounted for two percent of the system.
Non-Banking Finance Companies, an integral part
of the financial markets, serve as an important
source of resource mobilization in Pakistans
economy through their intermediary role which
provides stability to the financial system. SECP
has enhanced the capital requirement for NBFCs
and categorized the sector into two clusters where
the first group would cover Asset Management
Companies (Mutual Funds), and second Leasing,
Investment Banking and Housing Finance Units.
Mutual Funds recorded the highest growth in
terms of assets and numbers. The total number of
mutual funds was 82 as of March 31, 2008 and net
assets of mutual funds have increased from Rs. 295
billion to Rs. 389 billion during nine months,
depicting a growth of 31.86%. Major growth was
observed in the category of income fund and equity
fund. Moreover, SBP now allows mutual funds to
invest 30 percent of their assets abroad or US$ 15
million (whichever is lower). This initiative allows
fund managers to diversify their portfolios,
ultimately mitigating risk and enhancing investor
confidence in mutual funds. SECPs stringent
standards in terms of mandatory rating, weekly
reporting of assets and liabilities, and independent
safeguard for investors in the form of a trustee
structure, are proved to be an added advantage.

speculation and systemic risk. These reforms have
yielded dividends in the form of improvement in
key financial performance and soundness
indicators.
Regulatory Reforms:
The reforms on the regulatory side include
regulations governing Cash-Settled Futures (CSF)
contracts, amendments in stock exchange listing,
streamlining of the arbitration procedure and
avoiding of any possible conflict of interest during
the proceedings. New Risk Management
Regulations for ISE have been approved. These
regulations encompass VAR based margining
system, new netting regime, imposition of position
limits, mark-to-market loss collection regime,
imposition of special margins and valuation of
securities (haircuts regime).
Developmental Activities:
CFS Mk II, launched in April 2008, allow direct
provision of finance in the equity market by
institutions in the capacity of authorized financiers
by committing a minimum amount for a period of
at least 90 days. The Commission actively
developed a Financial Institutions Margining
System, which is a mechanism enabling collection
of margins directly with National Clearing
Company of Pakistan Limited (NCCPL) from nonmember institutions dealing through a member of
the exchange. A shorter T+2 settlement cycle for
trades on stock exchange, introduced in August
2007, facilitated to reduce the overall settlement
risk in the market and brought the domestic
markets at par with various international
jurisdictions.
To enhance transparency and
effective monitoring of capital markets, the
Commission initiated measures for compulsory
reporting of all off-market transactions at the stock
exchanges and automated the process of handling
corporate actions in CFS transactions. The
Commission has taken steps to enhance NCCPLs
paid-up capital to Rs. 300 million and reduce stock
exchanges share holding to 30% of the overall
paid-up capital. SECP has acquired a surveillance

Chapter 07
INFLATION
7.1 Introduction
Inflation is a key indicator of a country and
provides important insight on the state of the
economy and the sound macroeconomic policies
that govern it. A stable inflation not only gives a
nurturing environment for economic growth, but
also uplifts the poor and fixed income citizens who
are the most vulnerable in society. Over the last
decade, with a few exceptions, inflation around the
world had been at a retreat. However, with buoyant
global growth, along with higher population
growth, rapid industrialization and urbanization in
emerging markets, and strong per capita income
growth, inflation has started veering its ugly head
in many parts of the world, including Pakistan. In
the midst of soaring demand for essential
commodities, food inflation has emerged as the
main contributor to recent global inflationary
pressures.
There is a general consensus that the era of cheap
food is over. Soaring food prices over the last year
have helped propel inflation all around the world,
sparking protests and even riots in some countries.
The high price of food in the global arena as well
as short-sighted policy responses threatens to push
millions into poverty. Rising food prices have
pushed up overall inflation not only in Pakistan,
but across the region, particularly during 2007 and
mid-2008. This is worrisome given that food price
inflation is the most regressive of all taxes, hurting
the poor and fixed income groups the most.
Additionally, this explosion in international food
prices is a threat to macroeconomic stability
through inflation, the rising fiscal cost of food
subsidies, and the negative impact on the exchange
rate for net food/energy importing countries like
Pakistan.
For a developing country like Pakistan, inflation
needs to be stabilized in order to ensure sustainable

Rapid growth in emerging economies, importantly China and India, has resulted in increased demand for
wheat, thus pushing its prices up.
The number of wheat farmers switching to other crops such as maize and corn is growing due to increase in
the preference for bio-fuel.
Two years of drought in Australia has cut the global wheat stock to a level not seen since the 1970s.
Continued larger exports of wheat from the United States led to a depletion of wheat stocks to a 60 years
low, creating panic.
Rice
A ban from major exporters like Vietnam, India, Egypt and Cambodia to ensure domestic availability
aggravated supply concerns.
Increase in rice demand as its consumption in Asia, Middle East and West Africa is rising due to higher per
capita income.
Short supplies due to reduction in acreage, rising cost of fuel and poor crop due to water shortages, has
resulted in current global rice stocks to be at their lowest levels since 1976.
Edible Oil
Expected lower rapeseed production in China because of bad weather and lowering of input tariff by the
Indian government has put pressure on vegetable oil prices in the global market.
US, EU and Russia have been showing high consumption of soybean oil for industrial use, pushing up its
rice in the international market.
Increasing palm oil prices are also being supported by protectionist policies in major exporting countries
like Indonesia and Malaysia, where palm oil is politically sensitive as it is a staple product.

Further analysis of Table 7.7 reveals that the
poorest quintile spends nearly 24 percent of their
food expenditure on wheat alone while the richest
quintile only about 10 percent. The record high
wheat prices witnessed over the past year have had
serious consequences for the lowest two quintiles
because of the high share they dedicate to wheat
and wheat-flour. Similarly, other essential food
items for an average Pakistani household such as
pulses, rice, vegetables, milk, beef and sugar show
a similar trend. Prices of these crucial commodities
fluctuated throughout the year. For instance, wheat
prices in July 2007 were Rs. 12.43 per kg and by
May 2008, they had risen to Rs. 19.08 per kg, an
increase of 53.5 percent. Rice (Irri-6) prices also
had a big jump, from Rs. 22.42 per kg at the
beginning of the fiscal year to Rs. 46.41 per kg by
May 2008, a massive 107 percent increase. The

* As per policy of Government of Iran, wheat and wheat flour are not sold in the open market

and sell it through fair price shops/ USCs
outlets if the prices start rising again.
d) The government also provides sugar at reduced
rates to the consumer. TCP imported sugar is
being sold at subsidized rates to USC which
then sells it at the governments fixed rate to
the consumer. The government then picks up
the price differential between the cost and sale
price of sugar. In this manner, a huge amount
of subsidy is being paid to both TCP and USC.
e) The Government provided relief on the sale of
Atta, pulses and edible oil at reduced rate
through Utility Stores Corporation (USC). The
USC also provides selected food items at
subsidized rates during the month of Ramadan
every year. The government provided a
subsidy for the market price differential on the
basis of sales turn-over under these packages
to USC.
f) Imports have been liberalized to improve the
supply situation of essential commodities. The
government has also allowed duty free imports
of wheat and other essential consumer items
with a view to augment their supplies and
reduce their prices.
g) The Government is providing all pulses and
other essential edibles at Utility Stores
Corporation at cheaper rates than those found
on the open market.
h) To ensure competition and fair play in the
market, the Monopoly Control Authority
(MCA) has been converted into Competition
Commission of Pakistan (CCP) by granting it
valuable powers to prevent non-competitive
behaviour in the market.
7.5 Future outlook of Inflation
The government is likely to miss the inflation
target for 2007-08 of 6.5% and end the year with
average inflation rate of over 11.0%. The
government has taken several measures this fiscal
year to contain the rapid rise in inflation for next
year. Monetary tightening by the SBP will likely
continue into next year as the central bank will try

Chapter 08
EXPORTS :
Overall exports recorded a growth of 10.2 percent
during the first ten months (July- April) of the
current fiscal year against a growth of 3.6 percent
in the same period last year. In absolute terms,
exports have increased from $ 13847.3 million to $
15255.5 million. (See Table 8.1)
However,

The analysis of exports and imports and trade balance is based on trade
data released by Federal Bureau of Statistics (FBS) on custom basis. The
State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) prepares balance of payments for the country
and uses exports, imports and trade gap numbers on actual payment basis.
Therefore, the trade numbers will differ with each other.

Composition of Exports
Pakistans export composition has changed
significantly since early 1990s as it moved from
primary and semi manufactured exports to
manufactured exports (See Table 8.5). However,
during the last three years the export composition
has observed no change with both primary and
semi manufactured exports contributing 11
percent, while a major bulk of contribution
coming from manufactured goods, that is, 78
percent. The composition of Pakistans export
reflects that it doesnt rely heavily on primary
commodities for foreign exchange earnings. What

Workers Remittances
As in the previous year, workers remittances
registered commendable growth during Jul-Apr
FY08, growing by 19.5 percent on top of 22.7
percent growth in the corresponding period of last
year. Remittances routed through exchange
companies contributed 60.2 percent in the overall
remittances growth. As a result, foreign exchange
companies share in overall remittances increased to
23.8 percent during Jul-April FY08 from 16.7
percent for same period last year [See Table 8.16].
Part of strong growth in remittances is probably a
consequence of rising costs of living at home
which is eroding purchasing power of remittances.
