Key Highlights of the Package

The government will provide additional electricity at Rs. 22.98 per unit to both industries and farmers.
The relief will start from November 2025 and continue till October 2028, ensuring long-term stability and growth.
Currently, industries are paying Rs. 34 per unit and the agriculture sector Rs. 38 per unit, but under the new Roshan Economy Power Package, they will receive extra units at a lower cost.
The burden of this discount will not affect household consumers or any other sector.

Economic Impact and Benefits

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said the initiative is part of the government’s broader plan to revive economic growth, strengthen exports, and reduce dependence on foreign loans.

He recalled that under the previous winter package, the industrial and agricultural sectors had consumed 410 gigawatts of additional electricity, which helped accelerate industrial activity, increase exports, and generate new employment opportunities.

“When industries and agriculture move forward, the entire nation prospers,” said PM Shehbaz Sharif, emphasizing that a strong economy is the key to Pakistan’s independence from debt.

A Step Toward a Self-Reliant Economy

The new Power Relief Package 2025–2028 reflects the government’s commitment to supporting local production and making Pakistan’s exports more competitive in global markets.

Experts believe that this initiative will not only reduce the cost of doing business but also encourage new investments in the manufacturing and farming sectors, leading to sustainable economic growth in the coming years.
