Gold Prices in Pakistan (December 2025)
Gold remains one of the most trusted investment assets in Pakistan, frequently tracked by investors, buyers, and households. In 2025, gold prices in Pakistan have experienced volatility as global and local economic factors influence rates, with record highs reported in recent months.
In this article, we’ll explain how gold prices work in Pakistan, what factors affect them, and present a 30 day price overview for major cities, including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and more.
Understanding Gold Prices in Pakistan
Gold prices are typically quoted in PKR per tola (1 tola ≈ 11.66 grams) and per 10 grams.
The actual market rates can differ slightly between cities due to local supply and demand, transportation costs, and the respective Sarafa Bazaar association pricing.
Prices usually reflect the 24-karat gold rate, which is the purest form sold on the local market.
What Affects Gold Prices?
Gold prices in Pakistan are influenced by:
- Global gold rates and international market trends
- US Dollar to PKR exchange rate
- Inflation and interest rates
- Investor demand for safe-haven assets
- Local market supply and demand
- Import duties and taxes
Because gold is priced in dollars internationally, changes in the exchange rate also directly influence local gold prices.
