Fiscal deficit drops to 0.8pc of GDP in first quarter

Regarding the administration thing, then it's just a word choice quibble because administration, singular, normally is used for the ruling party of coalition instead of simply government at large.

I made it clear what I meant with "administration", you are free to make assumptions.

The rise in revenue for customs and sales tax are directly due to the increase in imports, domestic demand due to GDP growth, and the price of oil per barrel hitting global peaks.

and rupee devaluation as well, don't you think? Since we are paying in PKR so we have to pay more for increased prices etc.?

Just a layperson here, thank you for indulging me so far.
