Aurangzeb to present amended Finance Bill 2025 for NA Approval

Pakistan Finance Bill 2025

Islamabad, June 26, 2025 – Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue, Muhammad Aurangzeb, is set to present the amended Finance Bill, 2025 before the National Assembly today for final approval, marking a crucial step in the government’s fiscal agenda for the upcoming year.

According to the Order of the Day issued by the National Assembly Secretariat, the session is scheduled to commence at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, June 26. Aurangzeb will formally move that the revised Finance Bill, 2025—which incorporates amendments proposed by parliamentary committees—be taken into consideration immediately.

The initial budget for the fiscal year 2025–26 was presented by Aurangzeb on June 10. Since then, the Finance Bill has undergone a series of deliberations and reviews by the Standing Committees of both the National Assembly and the Senate. These reviews led to multiple recommendations aimed at fine-tuning the government’s fiscal policies, tax measures, and revenue targets in light of feedback from stakeholders, lawmakers, and industry groups.

The amended Finance Bill, 2025 now reflects these revisions, and its passage will authorize the federal government to implement its financial proposals from July 1, 2025. Once approved, the bill becomes legally binding and will lay the foundation for executing revenue collection targets, tax reforms, and development expenditure for the new fiscal year.

Aurangzeb, who has been leading the government’s economic team during a critical period, is expected to defend the revised proposals during the parliamentary debate, emphasizing the importance of fiscal consolidation, inflation control, and economic growth. The Finance Ministry believes that the changes made to the Finance Bill, 2025 are essential for achieving macroeconomic stability and maintaining investor confidence.

This will be the final step in the legislative process for the budget, after which implementation will begin. As the nation closely watches, all eyes are on Aurangzeb and the government’s ability to navigate political consensus and deliver on its economic promises through the Finance Bill, 2025.
