Pakistan GNI per Capita (1962–2025)

Overview

Pakistan's gni per capita stood at $1,481 in 2025, a rise of +$51 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $1,481 by 2025. Pakistan ranked 174th globally.

Pakistan's Gross National Income (GNI) per capita has experienced a moderate growth trajectory over the past six decades. At its all-time peak in 2018, the country's GNI per capita reached 1,560.00, a significant increase from its all-time trough of 90.00 in 1962. Despite recent fluctuations, the country's GNI per capita has maintained a steady upward trend, currently standing at 1,481.00 as of 2025, placing it at 174th globally. This growth pattern is comparable to that of Guinea, which boasts a similar GNI per capita of 1,554.00, with Pakistan's ranking closely trailing behind. The country's progress in this regard has been steady, albeit slow, over the years. However, a sustained economic growth, coupled with a significant improvement in human development indices, would be crucial in propelling Pakistan's GNI per capita towards more inclusive and sustainable growth, thereby altering its trajectory to one of accelerated development.
