The demand was made by Finance Minister Ishaq Dar while chairing a meeting of a committee to examine trade with India.
Dar said it should be ensured that all concessions are on a reciprocal basis and the Pakistani industry's concerns should be taken care of in future arrangements, according to a statement from the Finance Ministry.
He emphasised there should be "meaningful market access" and a level playing field for Pakistan's exports to India.
Commerce Secretary Qasim Muhammad Niaz told the committee that all stakeholders have been taken into confidence on normalising trade ties with India. He said the concerns of Pakistani industry will be addressed in the process.

Bilateral trade is currently worth about USD 2 billion a year, with the balance in India's favour. Pakistan has already missed its own deadline of December 2012 for giving India Most Favoured Nation-status.
