Talk:Economy of Pakistan

message: This hateful Indian guy Adamgerber80 (talk) from India is attacking Pakistan by covertly inserting biased information from fake India news media into all our Pakistan related pages. A very simple look at his edit history shows he is continuously editing all available Pakistan pages to make Pakistan look bad...all with a biased slant towards supporting India. And then he tries to block other Pakistani editors from putting in new information. We cannot accept Adamgerber80 (talk) putting biased information from fake India sources and secretly inserted this fake pro-India information into all of our Pakistan related pages. Pakistan will never be defeated by India! Unacceptable! Pakistan is the greatest! 58.92.227.183 (talk) 09:07, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

message: Please rectify the Pakistan GDP value. As per the Dawn article which you have provided as a reference, pakistan GDP is 47.709 trillion rupees, meaning 47,709 billion rupees which as per current conversion rate of 1 US = 155 rupees is 307.8 billion US Dollars not 294 billion dollars which wikipedia has mistakenly mentioned here as pakistan GDP. Kindly correct this.
Please Rectify Pakistan's GDP
Pakistan's GDP was 284 billion dollar in 2020 as per IMF and its not only growth rate which determines GDP. The increasing value of rupee against the dollar also increased it.  Dawn article has been mentioned there  as a reference document with  but if you do not accept the facts & figures mentioned in that article then why Dawn is there as a reference?. When people are outlining that mentioned GDP of pakistan is not as per Dawn article statistics, you say IMF says something else.
Then why you dont put IMF reference document there instead of Dawn.
Atleast provide that reference document with GDP which is acceptable to you!!!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:9880:1BF7:FF8D:7820:39E4:39F2:A152 (talk) 00:35, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Nominal GDP in US $ is calculated by dividing the (GDP at current prices in PKR) by 30th June ( last day of a fiscal year) average exchange rates of USD/PKR. Average exchange rate is the average of buying and selling rate of USD.  For fiscal year 2021, this should be 47,709.325  / 157.3104 = 303.281 Billion USD. There are no official documents which describe Pakistan's GDP in US $ except "Pakistan's External Debt and Liabilities - Outstanding" . Here in this document you can see that GDP in USD is calculated by the aforementioned method. Dawn article's 296 Billion $ figure was given by Mininstry of Finance back in May 2021 and was the estimated figure based on their future exchange rate predictions. Now the Dawn article is of no importance as we have the official figures required to calculate the GDP in USD. Mohammad Adnon Khan (talk) 14:17, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  You are showing Pakistan economy as 435 billion but according to world bank and IMF it’s not even 300 billion. Please correct it.👍😊 

message: Hello, currently there is a disagreement between myself and Hercules298. He is insisting on adding a 435 billion GDP figure which is sourced from a Dawn article, specifically from this paragraph in the article.  
Quote: "Dr Rashid Amjad, former vice-chancellor of the Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE) and a member of the government’s economic advisory group, sounded optimistic and talked of a spike in investment while advising one and all to avoid paying heed to speculations of the naysayer.
“Rebasing was long overdue and though new sectors, like IT and food delivery, have been added, it still underestimates the real size of the national economy which to my mind is at least 25-30pc larger."
His rationale is that the current nominal GDP of Pak is listed at 347 billion and a 1.25 multiplication of that figure is 435 billion dollars. This certainly constitutes WP: Original Research as a 435 billion figure is not explicitly said in the article nor is it mentioned in any other source/article/report. The Jan 2022 Pakistan Government Report lists a nominal GDP of 347 billion which is based of 2015 basic price, which is the only thing that should be listed in the article for nominal GDP.
Moreover, other "economy of countries" wikipedia pages only include data that is sourced through accredited economical and financial instiutuions like the World Bank, the IMF, or government reports and not off a quote in some article. Examples like Economy of China, India, Japan, the USA etc. IIBxtrerII (talk) 09:28, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
