PTCL is the first telecommunication industry of Pakistan. In order to understand how PTCL Corporation was developed, one need to look before partition since telecommunication services were introduced in the subcontinent by British through bringing post and telegram services. During the independence era Pakistan had only 14000 telegraph and telephone but with the passage of time and increasing needs of organizations and people for communication telegraph and telecommunication department were separated. Also separate department of post services and telephone and telegraph were developed in 1991. Pakistan Telecommunication ordinance which not only led to the transformation of telegraph and telecommunication department into Telecommunication Corporation of Pakistan but also allowed potential new entrants to enter the telecommunication sector of economy. Afterward government took an initiative to bring foreign investment in telecommunication sector by privatization of Telecommunication Corporation in 1991. Although PTCL was privatized but still it was enjoying monopoly in the telecommunication sector therefore on the basis of Telecommunication Corporation monopoly in Pakistan, Pakistan Telecommunication Corporation was developed and listed on Stock Exchange in 1996 under the ordinance of “Pakistan Telecommunication Reorganization Act 1996” (Shah, Rashid, Ullah & Ahmed, 2009).
