PTA Confirms Mobile Tariffs Up 22% Annually, Rejects Monthly Hike Claims

The PTA confirmed an average annual tariff increase of 12-22% by major mobile operators from June 2025 to June 2026, translating to a 1-2% monthly rise. The authority regulates tariffs for SMP operators like Jazz and intervenes if consumer interests are adversely affected. While contributing to general inflation, this sectoral price adjustment is unlikely to directly trigger significant movements in gold or USD/PKR rates.
