As the International Monetary Fund (IMF) assessment mission prepares to arrive in Islamabad on September 25, officials have confirmed that Pakistan has already met the majority of the 51 requirements associated with the $7 billion loan program.
Official documents state that Pakistan has successfully complied with a number of significant IMF conditions. These include the termination of tax exemptions, the six-monthly adjustment of gas pricing, and the unconditional distribution of monies to Kafalat program beneficiaries.
The government also made sure that the 2025–2026 budget, which reflected the larger budgetary adjustments agreed upon under the loan package, was approved in accordance with IMF criteria.
