grocery prices in Pakistan in Indian rupee

[Imran Khan]

I have no idea about Unilever's market share in Pakistan. It is possible some of their products are sold through a different company, but the only company for which they have reported results for the last several quarers last had 3 month sales of around 6 bn.

what i said based on my point of views sir i have no idea if they have sub companies .

Thanks for the graphic. That shows that the % of households having bikes in IND and PAK are almost same (47%, 43%). I wouldnt dispute anyone who says that India and Pak have similar sized middle class

You have to be careful interpreting the graph. Malaysia and China have much higher numbers on that graph , but a much higher proportion of their population is middle class than India's. In India, many households own multiple cars and also bikes . Bikes are just more convenient in tight traffic and also a hobby for many. I suspect the % of population using a bike as primary vehicle is higher in Pakistan ( and China and Malaysia is lower than India).

Since the prices are mentioned in INR, let me translate the salary into INR too.


So as per you the lowest Labor salary in pakistan is Rs. 2,284 INR per month. (7,740 PKR)

The LOWEST Labor salary in India is Rs. 10,000 INR. (Rs. 33,888 PKR)

This is approximately 4 TIMES the money pakistani Labor makes.

In addition Indians get 5 kg Wheat, 1 Kg Dal (Pulses) FREE EVERY MONTH PER HEAD. For a family of 4, that would be 20 kg Wheat and 4 Kg Dal.

Sugar is available for Rs. 13.50 INR for upto 3 kg for such people. Same with other essentials like oil etc.

The LOWEST Labour charge PER DAY is as per MGNREGA (Govt. scheme) and it is Rs. 240 per day.
This is for the LOWEST class of labour i.e. shifting sand/carrying bricks etc.

This works out to be INR 7,200 per Month (Rs. 24,400 PKR). THIS is the BARE MINIMUM income in India.

The average cost of Labour in normal market is Rs. 500 Per day.

The HIGHEST salary you mentioned was Rs. 31,000 PKR per month (Rs. 9,147 INR) for "multinational companies workers".

This is below the LOWEST salary in India ie. Rs. 10,000/12,000 for security guard/watch man etc.

AVERAGE salary of Workers in India is Rs. 25,600 per month (Rs. 86,900 PKR). Average Bonus is ₹4,428 (additional) per month.

This is approximately 9 to 10 times the income of pakistani factory worker.


And finally JFYI, the BELOW POVERTY LINE income is 165 USD per month or Rs. 13,500 INR ie. Rs. 46,000 PKR.

So in reality even your Policemen are quite literally BELOW the Poverty Line.

Lol sums are wrong . I pay basic mazdoor 3000 pkr a day .

The Unilever pak website doesn't show the total yearly sales revenue, but the profit on the yearly sales so as to evade government taxes, and show the profit at the minimum.

Look for third party articles, news.
Just as I quoted of nestle.

FMCG companies post robust earnings

Manufacturers have frequently reduced per-unit weight while jacking up prices of their goods.

The link in my post is from Unilever's own Pakistan website. It clearly says the total quarterly revenue ( not profit) is 6.807 billion PKR. I have also provided the corresponding link for Unilever India and that figure is 145 billion. If you disagree with the data on Unilever's website about their own sales ( or revenue) can you provide a source that gives a different number, instead of making up a fact that Unilver and Nestle sales are comparable.

Unilever Pakistan ; Kamran Yousaf Mirza (Chairman) Amir R. Paracha (Chief Executive Officer & Executive Director) · Home and personal Care Food and beverages.
Products: Home and personal Care; Food and beverages

Check this very old 2015 figure.

Revenue: Rs. 69976 million (US$310 million) (2015)
Net income: Rs. 7766 million (US$34 million) (2015)


So you quoted the net profit and not the sales revenue, some companies don't show the actual sales revenue but just the profit and to avoid the taxes it is shown less.

Depends on many factors.

1. Taxation- I dont know what is the tax structure on Pakistan. In India I believe it is a GST of 28%.
2. Scale drives down costs. India has a much larger market and there is a vibrant auto components industry which drives down costs.

That's right

You have to be careful interpreting the graph. Malaysia and China have much higher numbers on that graph , but a much higher proportion of their population is middle class than India's. In India, many households own multiple cars and also bikes . Bikes are just more convenient in tight traffic and also a hobby for many. I suspect the % of population using a bike as primary vehicle is higher in Pakistan ( and China and Malaysia is lower than India).

That's right, check the car sales figures of China, it is about 9 times that of India with a similar population size.

Pak auto sector is very small compared to India, it was picking up in the last 3 years but now the sales dropped.

Bike sales figures at 2.4 million looks good, per year.

 

[Paji]

So you quoted the net profit and not the sales revenue,

You keep repeating that even though the link I shared clearly says otherwise. Sales revenue is reported as 6.807 bn and net profit as 1.47 bn.

India also has entry level cars at around that price only, but I am a little surprised that Pakistan also imposes very high taxes on cars just like India, because on petrol tax in Pakistan has been much less than in India.

Check the dawn link and other data I shared in earlier posts, when nestle pak sales in 9 months is 122 billion rs many years ago, your data is incorrect.

Unilever sales is less than nestle pak but certainly not what you quoted.

Check the dawn link. So you agree with the nestle figure but not Unilever.

Okay . If you think Unilever Pakistan is committing fraud and massively under-reporting its sales in audited financial results uploaded on its website and the Pakistani regulators are doing nothing about it, it is pointless to have any further discussion. All the best.
