Karachi, September 8, 2025 – The price of gold soared to an unprecedented level on Monday, touching Rs384,000 per Tola in the domestic bullion markets of Pakistan.
This marks the highest-ever price recorded for the precious metal in the country, reflecting both global and local market pressures.
According to market reports, the rate of 24-karat gold per Tola jumped by Rs6,100 from the last closing of Rs377,900. Likewise, the price of 24-karat gold per 10 grams climbed by Rs5,230 to settle at Rs329,219, compared with the previous day’s closing of Rs323,988.
Bullion traders in Pakistan explained that the sharp upward movement in gold prices is largely influenced by international market trends. The global bullion market recorded a surge of $61 per ounce, taking gold to a record $3,613 compared with the earlier closing of $3,552. Analysts pointed out that ongoing geopolitical tensions, uncertainty in major economies, and tariff-related disputes have increased demand for gold as a safe-haven asset.
In Pakistan, dealers noted that demand from investors and jewelers has remained steady, even at elevated levels, as people seek protection against inflation and currency volatility. Experts believe that unless stability returns to the international financial landscape, gold prices in Pakistan may continue to follow the global upward trend.
