April 15, 2026 (MLN):  The Government of Pakistan raised a combined Rs116.4bn in face value through its latest Government of Pakistan Hybrid Sukuk (GHS) auction conducted via the PSX Auction System, falling short of the aggregate pre-auction target of Rs200bn.

Total bids received across both instruments reached Rs290.3bn in face value, with investor appetite diverging sharply between the two tenors on offer. Both instruments will be issued and settled on April 16, 2026.
