Karachi Flour Prices Cut Amid Wheat Supply Improvements

On the directives of Sindh Chief Secretary Syed Asif Hyder Shah, Commissioner Karachi Syed Hassan Naqvi held a meeting with flour mill owners to reduce the price of flour at his office. The City administration decided to lower the ex-mill flour price from Rs 133 per kg to Rs 130 per kg.

It was also decided that once the supply of wheat from the interior of Sindh improves, the price would be further reduced to Rs 125 per kg. This decision comes as an effort to curb profiteering and hoarding in the region.
