KARACHI – On Wednesday, August 13, 2025, Pakistan’s bullion market opened with largely stable gold and silver prices, reflecting only marginal changes from the previous day’s close.
The official rates, issued at 9:00 AM Pakistan Standard Time (PST), continue to serve as a benchmark for investors, jewelers, and traders nationwide.
In the local market, 24 Karat gold was valued at Rs 358,300 per tola, while 10 grams of 24 Karat gold stood at Rs 307,184. For those opting for 22 Karat purity, the rate was Rs 281,595 per 10 grams. On the international stage, gold retained its position as a preferred safe-haven asset, trading at $3,356 per ounce amid persistent global economic uncertainties.
Similarly, silver prices in Pakistan remained steady, supported by both industrial usage and investment demand. A tola of 24 Karat silver was available at Rs 4,013, while 10 grams were priced at Rs 3,440. In global markets, silver traded at $37.80 per ounce, benefiting from its applications in manufacturing, renewable energy systems, and as a hedge against inflation.
Market analysts note that fluctuations in gold and silver prices are closely tied to inflation data, currency exchange volatility, central bank policies, and geopolitical tensions. While minor regional price variations may occur due to dealer commissions, these official figures provide a reliable reference point for anyone looking to buy, sell, or invest in precious metals in Pakistan.
