In its daily wrap, KTrade Securities said sentiment remained upbeat as the index added 476 points, with investors showing confidence in Pakistan’s long-term economic outlook despite the debt-to-GDP ratio climbing to 73.2% in FY25.
Total trading volumes eased slightly to 1.07 billion shares, compared to 1.13 billion a day earlier, with traded value at Rs55.2 billion. K-Electric led the volume chart, recording 169.6 million shares and closing at Rs5.75, up 13 paisa.
