The Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) yesterday unveiled the export data for the July-September period of fiscal year 2024-25 and officially acknowledged that there was a $3.16 billion export data mismatch in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year.
The slowing growth of exports and slump in remittances is not good news. It is rather concerning as the latest data of the two major indicators shows that the pressure on the economy is likely to increase unless there is any rebound in inflows in the coming months.
