Karachi: Car sales in Pakistan plunged by 36 per cent to 8,589 units on a month-on-month (MoM) basis in July this year, the Pakistan Automotive Manufacturers Association (PAMA) data reveals. However, on the year-on-year (YoY) basis, sales were up 60pc in July.
The decrease in car sales in July can be primarily attributed to the increase in withholding tax rates introduced in the FY25 budget.
