پاکستان کا عوامی قرض 76 فیصد اضافے سے 86.7 کھرب روپے تک پہنچ گیا، حکومت کا مزید 6.86 کھرب قرض کا منصوبہ

Pakistan's public debt reached Rs86.7 trillion by June 2026, marking a 76% increase since June 2022. For fiscal year 2027, the government projects gross financing needs of Rs28.65 trillion and plans to borrow an additional Rs6.86 trillion to cover the budget deficit. This includes Rs6.046 trillion domestic and Rs813 billion external borrowing, with a focus on longer-term instruments like PIBs and aiming for over $2 billion in international capital market issuances. Such substantial borrowing and rising debt levels could exert pressure on the Pakistani Rupee and potentially increase demand for gold as a hedge against economic uncertainty.
