All Pakistan Textile Mills Association (Aptma) Patron-in-Chief Gohar Ejaz said the government had recently halved tax rebates that stood at 4-7% and thus things turned unfeasible for textile producers. Ejaz said Pakistan had only adjusted its exchange rate by letting the rupee weaken, but it won’t impact national exports. He said that the rupee had been artificially stabilised at Rs 105 per dollar for the past five years.
