Pakistan Agrees to Raise Agricultural Tax to 45% Following IMF Request

Pakistan has committed to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to amend its laws to increase the agricultural income tax rate to 45% in at least three provinces. However, the Sindh government has stipulated that it will only proceed with its approval after the Punjab government has legislated and implemented these changes first.

During discussions, the IMF sought detailed briefings from the provincial governments on their readiness to comply with the mandate to raise the agricultural income tax rate.

According to sources, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has conditioned its approval on the sequential passage of this legislation by Punjab and then by Balochistan. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa assembly will approve the law only after it has been ratified by the Sindh assembly, which is waiting for Punjab to act.

Additionally, the IMF has instructed Pakistan to provide details on the financial obligations associated with maintaining idle capacity at all power plants over the next five years. The IMF has also expressed opposition to the expansion of solar energy initiatives within the country.

Expectations are set for the IMF to release a statement after a five-day negotiation period, which begins on November 11 and ends on November 15, 2024.
