During the first four months (July–October) of FY2026–27, total cumulative remittances reached $11.47 billion, reflecting a 13% increase over the $10.15 billion received during the corresponding period of FY2025–26. Monthly inflows stood at $2.86 billion in July, $2.96 billion in August, $2.76 billion in September, and $2.87 billion in October. Economists and central bank officials note that government initiatives against illegal hundi channels, enhanced cash incentives, and simplified banking services are successfully driving expatriates toward legal remittance channels, boosting foreign exchange reserves and stabilizing import payments.
