Pakistan IT export receipts stand at over $400mn in July 2026

Business Recorder reported that receipts from telecommunications, computer and information services rose by roughly 18 per cent year on year to $417 million in July 2026. The State Bank of Pakistan data released on Tuesday put the July 2025 figure at $354 million, an increase of $63 million. Pakistan's overall services exports reached $927 million in the month, up about 27 per cent from $728 million a year earlier.

On a full-year basis, exports in this category reached $4.6 billion in FY2025-26, against $3.814 billion in FY2024-25, growth of roughly 21 per cent. The sector stayed the biggest single contributor among services exports in that year, which totalled $10.02 billion. Smaller shares came from transport, which earned $916 million, travel with $1.116 billion and other business services totalling $2.155 billion.

Industry voices quoted in the report expect growth to keep rising. Dr Noman Said, CEO of SI Global Solutions, pointed to consistent government policies, while Saad Shah of Hexalyze urged exporters to pursue high-value projects in cybersecurity, machine learning and AI-driven automation. The Uraan programme sets a $10 billion export target for FY2028-29, which Dr Said described as demanding but attainable.
