According to a report on Wednesday, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has updated its forecast for Pakistan’s GDP growth rate during the current fiscal year from 2.5% to 2%. Given that population growth was 2.6%, it shows that per capita income in dollars is bound to decrease. Pakistanis’ income would not rise in terms of dollars if the real GDP growth rate remains at 2%. The IMF’s World Economic Outlook (WEO) report stated that Pakistan’s growth rate for the current fiscal year, FY24, was expected to be 2% of GDP. Additionally, 3.5% GDP growth is anticipated for the upcoming fiscal year, FY25.
