CPI Inflation Update: Pakistan (November 2025) 🇵🇰
Fresh data from the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) shows a mild cooling in annual inflation, though price pressures continue to weigh on households.
🔍 Key Highlights
Modest Decline: Year-on-year inflation dipped slightly to 6.1%, down from 6.2% in October, remaining within the government’s target range.
Monthly Growth Slows: CPI rose only 0.4% month-on-month, a sharp slowdown from the 1.8% surge recorded in October.
Housing & Utilities Heating Up: While food inflation eased, costs in Housing, Water, Electricity, Gas & Other Fuels accelerated (5.3% vs. 4.2% in October), adding strain to household budgets.
Policy Outlook: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) is expected to stay cautious. Despite rates easing from earlier highs, steady—though reduced—inflation may keep monetary policy tight for now.
