Hafsa Abdul Qayoom by Hafsa Abdul Qayoom

ONLINE

Federal government’s new fiscal Year 23 will be presented in Parliament today.

Finance Minister Miftah Ismail will present the budget in the National Assembly today. In the context of the domestic and international scenario, the focus has been on financial stability, deficit reduction, increase in exports and production of alternative local products for imports, ease of trade and investment, and promotion of agriculture.

IMF proposal

The IMF has proposed a fiscal deficit of Rs. 370.7 billion in the federal budget for the next financial year 2022-23, which is equivalent to 4.9 % of the country’s GDP. The budget proposes to set a target of a 5 percent economic growth rate (GDP) and a development budget of Rs. 2184 billion.

What will be the budget of Sindh province?

According to the budget document, Sindh’s development budget has been proposed to be Rs 355.38 billion.

Budget of Punjab Province

The budget of Punjab for the next financial year will be more than Rs. 2700 billion in which it is proposed to allocate Rs. 1700 billion for non-development and current expenditure and Rs. 650 billion for the development budget.

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa budget

According to the budget document, the development budget of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is proposed to be 299.96 billion.

Budget of Balochistan

According to the budget document, the development budget of Balochistan is proposed to be Rs. 143.53 billion. Balochistan is the main target of the development budget.

Budget of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan

Around 96.48 billion has been earmarked for Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan.

Salary of government employees

In the budget negotiations with the IMF, Pakistan agreed to increase the salaries and pensions of government employees. It is expected the budget presented today is expected to increase the salaries and pensions of government employees by 10 to 15 percent.

Final approval of proposals to increase the salaries and pensions of government employees will be sought from the federal cabinet later.

The largest amount of Rs 4400 billion has been allocated for repayment of loans and interest while the provinces are estimated to transfer Rs 4200 billion, Rs 1523 billion for defense, Rs 800 billion for development budget, and Rs 580 billion for grants and subsidies. I propose to keep Rs 580 billion and Rs 550 billion for pension.

Budget and education

According to the budget document, apart from the plans of the Higher Education Commission, laptops will be provided to the talented students under the Prime Minister’s Merit-Based Laptop Scheme.

In addition, another scheme will be introduced, under which students of higher education institutions will be able to buy laptops in easy installments, while 250 vocational training institutes will be set up in collaboration with the provinces, while in collaboration with the provinces. 250 mini sports stadiums will also be built.

Economic Challenges

Inflation in the country has skyrocketed in the last few months, due to which the majority of the people are very worried, so the biggest challenge for the government at the moment is to control inflation.

The budget document does not come up with any meaningful suggestions regarding education, which is a big challenge.

The IMF is calling for a tax revenue target of Rs 7,255 billion, which would require the government to raise tax rates and impose additional taxes. There is a big challenge.

Pakistan is currently facing a growing trade and current account deficit and this is due to the huge pressure on the country’s foreign exchange reserves and the value of the dollar against the rupee is rising to the highest level of 200 rupees. Has arrived Pakistan’s trade deficit in the first ten months is about forty billion dollars, while the current account deficit in the first nine months is more than thirteen billion dollars.

Experts say that the trade and current account deficit has become a major problem for the country’s external payments which, if left unchecked, will create huge problems for the country on the external front. This will also be a big challenge for the government.
