PSX (Pakistan Stock Exchange) is Pakistan's sole stock exchange, home to the benchmark KSE-100 index and the Shariah-compliant KMI-30.
Real-time KSE-100 index data requires a commercial data license directly from PSX. This restriction applies to all free-tier financial data providers, including Yahoo Finance and TradingView — no dashboard or news site can legitimately display a live KSE-100 chart without that license. We show this honestly rather than displaying an inaccurate or stale number.

PSX (Pakistan Stock Exchange) is Pakistan's sole stock exchange, formed in 2016 from the merger of the Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad stock exchanges, with roots tracing back to 1947.
The KSE-100 is PSX's benchmark index, tracking the 100 largest and most liquid listed companies by free-float market capitalization. Other key indices include the KSE-All Share (every listed company) and KMI-30 (Shariah-compliant, screened for Islamic finance eligibility).
Banking, oil & gas exploration, cement, fertilizer, and power generation are among the most heavily weighted sectors on PSX, reflecting Pakistan's industrial structure.
The KSE-100 is widely used as a barometer of investor sentiment toward Pakistan's economy and is often forward-looking — rallying on rate-cut expectations or IMF program progress before economic data confirms an improvement.
Investing in PSX requires opening a brokerage account with a SECP-licensed broker and a CDC (Central Depository Company) account — individuals, mutual funds, and foreign investors (via Special Convertible Rupee Accounts) all participate.
