I guess its your lucky day becasue I'm online & have some free time today.
I'm the guy jis ne dasht tou dasht darya bhi na chorai years back to find the answer to the ever elusive question of salary of an FSP officer while posted inside and outside the country. So brace yourself, my child, for the answer that you seek is a bit complicated.

OK enough of the theatrics. Here we go:
1. Officer serving in Pakistan:
BPS: 17
Current Basic: 30,340 (This is figure that the finance ministry will announce this July taking into account the raise announce by Ishaq Dar last month. You're getting this latest updated figure because, as I said before, its your lucky day
)
Conveyance allowance: 5,000
Medical Allowance (15% of 2008 basic): 1,478
Adhoc Relief-2016 (10% of Running basic): 3,034
Adhoc Relief-2017 (10% of Running basic): 3,034
Special Allowance (20% of Current Basic to the Employees working in the Federal Ministries/Divisions):6,068
House Rent (45% of 2008 basic pay): 4,433
Total Gross Salary: 53,386
Deduction of GP Fund: 2,240
Deduction of Benevolent Fund: 195
Deduction of Group Insurance: 182
Deduction of Income Tax: 1002.63
Total Net Salary (Take Home): 49,766
2. Officer serving abroad:
In addition to the above Rs. 49,766, the officer also gets a foreign allowance and an entertainment allowance which depends on the city of the country in which he/she is serving in. Foreign allowance keeps changing for all these countries depending upon the cost of living in any particular city. I'll give you two examples:
A)
Duty Station: London
Foreign Allowance: $2,281
Entertainment Allowance: $291
Total FA + EA = $2572
Total Salary: (2572 * 104.80) + 49766 = Rs. 319,312
B)
Duty Station: Geneva
Foreign Allowance: $2,737
Entertainment Allowance: $349
Total FA + EA = $3,086
Total Salary: (3086* 104.80) + 49766 = Rs. 373,179
Disclaimer: The figures used for Foreign allowance and Entertainment allowance are from 2011. They should be about 10-20% higher now due to increase in cost of living in these countries.
Entertainment allowance cannot be used for personal expenses. Its for expenses related to job like parties, refreshments etc and one has to account for it with receipts to the Auditor general of Pakistan.
There are some more details as well which I'm not going into at the moment.
