Earlier, Pakistan has significantly failed to meet the International Monetary Fund's (IMF) requirement to collect Rs10 billion from traders under a new scheme in the first quarter of the fiscal year, managing to collect only 0.001% of the target.
This shortfall of 99.99% is an unusual miss for an IMF condition, reflecting poorly on Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's government and raising concerns about the sustainability of the new $7 billion IMF deal.
The IMF had set a target of Rs10 billion for net tax revenues collected by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) from retailers under the Tajir Dost scheme for the July-September quarter, but actual collections were reportedly under Rs1 million.
