Why Are Gold Prices Moving?
Several factors drive these movements:
- International bullion trends: Global gold prices often set the base for local prices.
- Exchange rate of Pakistani Rupee (PKR): When PKR weakens against USD, gold tends to cost more locally.
- Domestic demand and jewellery season: In Pakistan, weddings and festivals boost demand for 22 K and 24 K jewelry.
- Safe‑havens in uncertain times: Investors turn to gold when stocks or currency markets look unstable.

What To Keep In Mind Before You Buy or Sell
- Always check karat purity (24K vs 22K) — this affects the rate significantly.
- Confirm morning intra‑day rates with your local jeweller or sarafa market since rates change often.
- If you’re buying jewellery, factor in making charges and purity markup over the bullion rate.
- If it’s an investment, consider storage/security costs and resale liquidity.
- For sellers: timing may matter — as shown above, a few months difference in 2025 gave a large change in price.
Final Thoughts
Gold remains a strong option for many Pakistani households, both as jewellery and as an investment hedge. In 2025 we’ve already seen a jump from around Rs 356,000 per tola in July to about Rs 425,000+ in recent times. While the price may not keep rising in a straight line, if you were considering buying jewellery or bullion, it’s wise to monitor closely and decide sooner rather than later.

FAQs
Q: What is the best purity to buy 24K or 22K?
24K has the highest purity, but it’s softer and making charges may be higher. 22K is more common for jewellery and may offer better durability and resale value in local markets.
Q: Is gold a safe investment in Pakistan right now?
Gold offers a hedge against inflation and currency weakening, but like all assets, it has risks. Prices may oscillate. If you buy, do so with an understanding of the long‑term horizon and storage.
Q: Does the rate differ by city?
Generally the published “Pakistan” rate applies to major cities like Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. Small local variations may exist due to charges, taxes or local demand.
Q: How often do the rates update?
Daily. The local sarafa/gold market updates recommend checking rates each morning as international and local factors shift frequently.
