November 8, 2018 (MLN): Pakistan Credit rating Agency (PACRA) has maintained the debt instrument ratings of Pakistan Mobile Communications Limited, ‘AA’ for long term, with a ‘positive’ outlook.

As per an official press release on the matter, the ratings incorporate robust business profile of the company, represented by a leading market share of approximately 37% in the country's cellular subscribers (approximately 56 million).
