Milk prices in Pakistan have risen by over 20% following the imposition of a new 18% tax on packaged milk, making it more expensive than in several developed countries. In Karachi, ultra-high temperature (UHT) milk now costs 370 rupees ($1.33) per liter, compared to $1.29 in Amsterdam, $1.23 in Paris, and $1.08 in Melbourne, as per Bloomberg data.
