Islamabad:Pakistan's listed corporate sector is experiencing significant earnings momentum, with corporate profits increasing by twenty-five percent during the first nine months of this calendar year.
According to Radio Pakistan, figures shared by Advisor to the Finance Minister Khurram Schehzad on the social media platform X indicate that this is the strongest nine-month growth since 2023.
Khurram Schehzad noted that targeted tax relief for businesses and exporters in the budget, alongside improving macroeconomic stability, easing financing pressures, and ongoing fiscal, energy, and business reforms, are contributing to a more supportive environment for enterprise and investment.
He emphasized that the next phase of Pakistan's economic progress should focus on translating stronger corporate earnings into greater productive investment, industrial expansion, job creation, and sustainable, private-sector-led growth.
