Industries in Pakistan
Pakistan has been an agrarian economy since its independence. In 1947, agriculture contributed more than 62% towards the GDP whereas contribution of manufacturing sector towards GDP was only 7%. Pakistan inherited only 5% of the large scale industrial facilities from British India. At that time Pakistan hardly had any industrial base and was without any institutional, financial or energy resources. Besides, basic infrastructural facilities, technical skills and other pre-requisites for development were also lacking. Since then the industrial sector in Pakistan has flourished manifolds and Pakistan is now being considered as one of the rapidly growing economies of the region. Industries in Pakistan are divided into two main sectors namely manufacturing sector and services sector.

Manufacturing Sector
Automobile Industry
The automotive industry rightly prides itself on being recognized as the ―mother of all industries.‖ In its folds it carries many different kinds of vehicles to provide mobility to people and goods. While they may appear to be simple machines,

    Rpps in Pakistan

    This paper therefore intends to explore reasons for Pakistan to increase its power generation capacity through various new measures and incentives to private and foreign investors. The negative fallout of power shortages resulted in closure of industries, low production capabilities leading to unemployment and price escalation. This put a lot of pressure on the new government which was forced to take short term measures for filling in the power gap till its mid-term and long term power generation plans came on ground. The “Vision 2020 Program” of the government was initiated to address the power shortfall over the medium and long term with a view to add around 20,000 MW into…

    Effect of Rising Oil Prices on Trade Balance of Pakistan

    Although other forms of energy (hydro, natural gas, coal etc) are also in use in Pakistan but still imported oil energy covers a major portion. So therefore any change in international crude oil prices cause to affect all the sectors of the Pakistan economy including the welfare of the society. WTI and Brent are considered the key benchmark for international crude oil prices. Since 2001 oil prices are showing an upward trend & reached all time high level in July 2008 to the value of $148 per barrel.…

    Trade Pattern of Pakistan

    The nature of foreign trade gives a fairly good indication of pattern and nature of economies. As this sector has proved itself as a driving force in the development, we can distinguish developing countries from developed ones based upon their volume of trade. Pakistan emerged on the map of the world on August 14, 1947. In the beginning, it was a poor and agricultural based economy but now the conditions are different and Pakistan is on the track of development. According to the most recent statistics, Pakistan's GDP is US$161.99 billion and the share of Pakistan in international trade0.22%, hence Pakistan is considered a small country in international market. In the early years, potential of available resources could not be exploited in a better way, which later on, proved a major factor for slowing down the pace of development. That sluggish development resulted in small exportable surpluses, which delayed the stage of quantum development in Pakistan. In 1950-51 Pakistan exported products worth of 1343 million rupees whereas during the decade of 1950s, exports decreased by 43.18%. However, in the decade of development under Ayub Khan's regime, industry was established and nature of production changed, so did that of trade. In 1960-61exports were recorded as Rs.763 million, showing a declining trend earlier on but shortly regained the momentum and during the decade…

    Economic reforms in Pakistan

    There is a widely shared consensus about the nature of reforms that Pakistan should embark upon. This consists of two components – stabilization and long term structural reforms. Under the first component the economy has to be stabilized with the help of fiscal consolidation, widening of tax net and mobilization of domestic resources, cutting down the losses of state owned corporations, curtailing wasteful development expenditure and assigning priority to removing supply-side bottlenecks such as energy and infrastructure, keeping inflation under control and maintaining exchange rate stability. The second component requires governance reforms in the structure, processes and human resource policies of the Federal , Provincial and Local governments, taxation and tariff reforms, removing microeconomic distortions such as issuing selective Statutory Regulatory Orders (SROs) for specific firms, liberalizing and deregulating goods and factor markets, strengthening regulatory architecture, promoting market competitive forces and building human capital particularly in science and technology.…

    Importance: They produce flat steel products including billets, slabs, hot rolled coils , cold rolled coils, galvanized sheets/coins/formed sections and corrugated sheets. They are vital to the supply of high quality and cost effective steel products to the domestic market. Pakistan Steel’s constant efforts in continuous improvement and quality management have resulted in accreditation in ISO 9001, 14001, 17025, SA 8000 and OHSAS 18001.Problems: The withering ship-breaking industry, a source of scrap at Gadani, is costing the national economy much more than lost taxes as hundreds of steel rerolling and re-melting mills owe their very existence to the ship-breaking industry. These steel reinforcement bars are in turn consumed by the construction industry in the country. But there remains a dearth of quality steel products being manufactured locally. The per capita consumption of steel in Pakistan is 38 kg per annum as opposed to a global average of 198 kg per annum. This demonstrates the immense potential that Pakistan has to first become self sufficient in steel production and then focus on exporting quality steel products to the world on a similar model to that utilised by China and India and as a result increase its per capital consumption of steel which is a good indicator of meaningful infrastructural development.…

    Economic Condition of Pakistan

    For the past few years Pakistan has been following the technique of assessment of domestic oil value against the international oil value on a fortnight basis. About 85% of the oil required for domestic uses in Pakistan is imported. Back in the year 2004 various subsidies were given by the government on the oil price as an attempt to protect the citizens from the prospective record fuel costs. It was also an attempt to curb the rate of inflation prevalent in the country. Financing these subsidies, which by the way are considered a birthright by the population of these countries, is a major burden for an emerging economy. For instance according to the estimate of various prominent economists and analysts, that subsidy was costing Pakistan a whooping 14.5 billion rupees per month. This amounted to around $232 million per month. Not surprisingly as a result the Pakistani government was under major financial stress. Although it has to be acknowledged that recent increases in the industry's cost of production were largely due to rise in "other" input costs. Industry is paying more for oil and other imported raw materials and capital goods in line with rising international prices and utilities and transportation costs, and wage costs have risen due to the rise in minimum wages.…

    Karachi is the largest city of Pakistan with an estimated population of around 20 million and has the largest informal sector as well as the largest number of home-based workers.

All national and international surveys, reports, and analyses confirm that Karachi is the mainstay of the Pakistani economy.…
