Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves were $XXXX b in January 2025. Those of India in June 2025 were $ XXXXXX b. 

Pakistan’s lower debt to GDP ratio compared to India means nothing. 

India can service its debt but Pakistan needs an IMF bailout and rescheduling of debt by China or financial doles by some Gulf countries.

Incidentally, Singapore’s debt to GDP ratio is 173%, US 124%, France 113%, UK 95.9%, Italy 135%, Spain 102%, China 88.3%, Japan 237%, whereas for many poor, economically stagnant or war torn countries like Afghanistan it is 8%, Armenia 50.3%, Bangladesh XXXX% etc. Madagascar 38.8%, Mauritania  XXXX% etc.
