The average price of a dozen eggs in Pakistan has surged by more than Rs. 74 per dozen in the past year, according to official documents seen by ProPakistani.
Documents revealed the average cost of a dozen eggs nationwide has reached a historical high of Rs. 314.59, a significant jump from the previous year’s price of Rs. 240.80 per dozen.
The situation worsened in October, with the price of eggs per dozen surging by over Rs. 14. In some major cities like Gujranwala, Rawalpindi, and Karachi, the cost of eggs has reached an alarming Rs. 322 per dozen, according to documents.
Gujranwala stands out as the city with the most expensive eggs, where residents are shelling out an average of Rs. 322.16 per dozen. Karachi closely follows at Rs. 321.64, while Rawalpindi is not far behind at Rs. 321.34 per dozen. Quetta is also suffering from high prices, with the average cost of a dozen eggs standing at Rs. 321.7.
This sudden and significant rise in egg prices has left many families struggling to afford this essential protein source, raising concerns about food security and affordability.
No-one sells at 314.59 as paisay have been discontinued. Shopkeepers charge 320. So write realistic report.

Rs. 340 per Doz at retail shops in Karachi
I am afraid your information is not correct. The price of eggs no doubt varies from place to place but in my area in Islamabad, the eggs are being sold for Rs. 350 a dozen. Someone has to explain this phenomenon. The traders conveniently attribute the high price of everything to US Dollar rate. I wonder if hens are being fed on dollar notes. Now when the dollar is relatively down and petrol as well, I cannot understand the reason for high price of eggs. Also eggs are very much a local commodity, not the imported stuff.
It’s Rs. 350 per dozen here in Islamabad. I wonder where are the DCs and Price Controllers who can control the unjustified prices hike at retail shops.

It’s not surprising with regards to both poultry products and solar panels due to involvement of Hamza Kukri and Salman Solar; the sons of Shehbaz ‘Money-launderer’ Sharif.
