What will be the next port call/stop after Malaysia ? Remember Type54AP Taimor is accompanying the submarine on its way back home. In other words, two heavy naval assets are coming home.

from Malaysia, I think next stop might be Sri Lanka ...IN must be keeping a tap on both the assets.
 
If they wanted to be hidden they wouldn't be making these port calls at all.
I know just for security purposes for the asset especially sub. It will turn out to be one huge headache for IN in nearby future.
 
Are there any plans for purchasing submarine tenders?. They would be very useful for offshore maintenance and replenishment and could accompany subs in deployments to and from china or international excercises

Wouldn't submarine tenders give away location of a submarine?

They’re supposed to resupply and replenish submarines in safe harbors or places without proper facilities. In wartime they would only meet up with subs far away from threat environment. While indeed possible to potentially track them to another sub, with adequate measures they should be hard to track and intercept
 
indeed, submarine rescue vehicle would be more important than a submarine tender. With 11+ subs these might be useful/prudent to have.
Something like this would be best tested and integrated upon from a dedicated sub tender but i agree its a necessity
Okay! I take back my words.

I just looked up some information. The cost of this submarine rescue ship is astonishing, completely beyond the affordability of the Pakistan Navy..........
