Gold Price Trend in Pakistan: Last 10 Days

Gold Rate in Pakistani Cities Today
Sarafa associations publish one benchmark rate for the whole country, so the base price is the same in every major city.
- Gold rate in Karachi: Rs. 421,000 per tola (24K). Saddar is the main reference market.
- Gold rate in Lahore: Rs. 421,000 per tola (24K). Rang Mahal and the Sarafa Bazaar set the pace.
- Gold rate in Islamabad / Rawalpindi: Rs. 421,000 per tola (24K).
- Gold rate in Peshawar: Rs. 421,000 per tola (24K). Peshawar’s sarafa traders follow the same national benchmark.
- Gold rate in Quetta, Faisalabad, Multan, Hyderabad and Sialkot: the same benchmark applies.
The price you actually pay at the shop can still differ. Jewellers add making charges (mazdoori), wastage and their own margin, and these vary by city, design and shop.
24K vs 22K vs 21K Gold: Which Should You Buy?
- 24K gold (99.9% pure): Best for bars, biscuits and coins, where you pay for the gold itself. It is too soft for most jewellery.
- 22K gold (about 91.6% pure): The most popular choice for bridal jewellery in Pakistan. It balances purity and durability.
- 21K gold (87.5% pure): Common in everyday jewellery and widely sold in Pakistani markets. It is cheaper than 22K and fairly hard-wearing.
- 18K gold: Often used for diamond and modern designs.
How to Calculate the Price of Your Gold
Basic formula:
Price = (weight in tolas × rate per tola) + making charges
Example: For 2 tolas of 22K jewellery at Rs. 386,027 per tola:
2 × 386,027 = Rs. 772,054, before making charges and any deductions.
Factors That Affect Gold Prices in Pakistan
- International gold price: Local rates follow the global price per ounce.
- USD to PKR exchange rate: A weaker rupee pushes local gold prices up, even if global prices stay flat.
- Demand during wedding and festive seasons: Strong buying supports prices.
- Interest rate expectations and the US dollar: Expected rate cuts and a weaker dollar generally lift gold.
- Geopolitical uncertainty: Gold is a “safe haven” asset, so investors buy it in uncertain times.
- Local market conditions: Premiums and sarafa association pricing add small daily differences.
Tips for Buying Gold in Pakistan
- Check the same-day rate from a reliable source before you shop.
- Ask for a written invoice that shows weight, purity (karat), rate and making charges.
- Compare making charges across two or three jewellers.
- Check the buy-back policy. Most shops deduct a percentage when you sell jewellery back.
- For investment, bars and coins carry lower making charges than ornaments.
- Don’t assume today’s rise or fall predicts tomorrow’s. Gold can swing by thousands of rupees in a day.
