Gold Rate in Pakistan Today – 29 October 2026

| Gold Purity | Per Tola | Per 10 Grams | Per 1 Gram (approx.) |

| 24K Gold | Rs. 422,700 | Rs. 362,400 | Rs. 36,240 |

24K Gold Price Today
The 24K rate today is Rs. 422,700 per tola, or about Rs. 362,400 for 10 grams. Because 24K is the purest form of gold, it is the benchmark most people use when comparing prices, and it is the grade usually chosen for bars and biscuits rather than everyday jewellery.
If you plan to buy a bar or coin, check the weight, purity certificate and the final price in writing before you hand over any money.
22K and 21K Gold Rate Today
The 22K rate is Rs. 387,578 per tola and 21K is Rs. 369,961 per tola. Both grades have other metals mixed in, which makes the gold harder and better suited to rings, bangles and necklaces that are worn often. 22K and 21K are the two grades most commonly sold as jewellery in Pakistani markets.
Two pieces with the same weight can still carry different prices once design, craftsmanship and the jeweller’s making charges are included. That is why asking for an itemised bill matters.
How Gold Prices Moved in the Last Two Weeks
Gold rarely moves in a straight line. After holding near Rs. 429,500 per tola on 20 and 21 October, the 24K rate slipped to Rs. 419,000 by 26 October, then recovered to Rs. 422,700 by 28 October and was unchanged on 29 October.
| Date | 24K Gold Rate per Tola |
|---|---|
| 20 October 2026 | Rs. 429,500 |
| 21 October 2026 | Rs. 429,500 |
| 22 October 2026 | Rs. 426,500 |
| 23 October 2026 | Rs. 423,500 |
| 26 October 2026 | Rs. 419,000 |
| 27 October 2026 | Rs. 419,500 |
| 28 October 2026 | Rs. 422,700 |
| 29 October 2026 | Rs. 422,700 |
Over this stretch the rate is down Rs. 6,800 from its 20 October level but up Rs. 3,700 from the 26 October low. Past movement says nothing certain about tomorrow, and figures can differ slightly depending on the source and the time of day they were reported.
Gold Rate in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and Other Cities
Pakistan’s cities generally follow one benchmark sarafa rate, so the reference price in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, Quetta and Dera Ismail Khan is usually very close. What changes from shop to shop is the final bill: local competition, the jeweller’s profit margin, design complexity and making charges all play a part.
Before buying, ask for the per-tola or per-gram rate being applied and for the making charges to be stated separately. When selling old jewellery, ask how purity will be tested and how the payout is calculated, including any deduction for alloy or wastage.
Why Does the Gold Price Change in Pakistan?
1. International gold market
Gold is priced globally in US dollars, so shifts in international demand, investor sentiment and interest-rate expectations feed through to Pakistan. You can follow the global benchmark on the World Gold Council’s gold price data page.
2. Dollar to rupee exchange rate
A weaker rupee pushes the local price up even when global gold is flat, and a stronger rupee does the opposite. Our daily USD to PKR rate page helps you see this link, and the State Bank of Pakistan publishes official figures at sbp.org.pk.
3. Local demand
Wedding seasons and festivals lift demand for jewellery, which can affect the premiums dealers charge. Supply conditions in the local market also play a role.
4. Economic uncertainty
Many households turn to gold to protect savings when inflation or uncertainty rises. Inflation data is published by the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics. No single factor explains every move, and gold can fall as well as rise.
Tola, Gram and Masha: Quick Conversion Guide
Gold in Pakistan is sold by the tola, so converting units helps you compare quotes properly.
| Unit | Weight in Grams (approx.) |
|---|---|
| 1 Tola | 11.664 g |
| Half Tola | 5.832 g |
| 1 Masha (1/12 tola) | 0.972 g |
| 1 Ratti (1/8 masha) | 0.1215 g |
Checklist Before You Buy or Sell Gold
- Check the day’s reference rate first, so you know what a fair quote looks like.
- Confirm which purity is being quoted: 24K, 22K, 21K or lower.
- Ask for the gold to be weighed in front of you.
- Get gold value, making charges and any other fees listed separately.
- Keep a receipt that shows weight, purity and the amount paid.
- If you are buying as a store of value, ask what the shop would pay to buy the item back.
Remember that jewellery usually resells for less than you paid, because making charges are generally not recovered. Bars and coins tend to lose less on resale.
Gold is often bought out of savings, so it helps to plan around your income. Government employees can estimate their revised pay with our Federal Salary Increase Calculator 2026-27, check scales on the Pay Scale 2026-27 page, and set aside a realistic amount each month using the Monthly Salary Budget Planner.
