Business

Money moves fast in Pakistan, and the Business desk at The Lahore Times moves with it. The Business News section tracks the numbers that shape household budgets and boardroom decisions alike: KSE-100’s daily swings, State Bank’s policy rate calls, rupee volatility, and inflation readings that determine what a family pays at Akbari Mandi. Our reporters cover Punjab’s industrial belt — textiles, pharmaceuticals, auto assembly and the small manufacturers who rarely reach national headlines — alongside federal fiscal policy, IMF programme milestones and the trade corridors linking Pakistan to China, the Gulf and Central Asia. Expect earnings analysis, commodity and energy tariff coverage, property market trends, and conversations with the economists and entrepreneurs steering the debate. Whether you are an investor reading the market close, a business owner navigating a new tax regime, or simply trying to understand why prices climbed again this month, you will find breaking news paired with the context that makes sense of it.
