Karachi, October 4, 2025 – The price of gold in Pakistan closed near record levels on Saturday, reflecting strong demand and global market volatility. In the local bullion markets, the 24-karat per tola price of gold jumped by Rs2,100, closing at Rs409,878 compared to the previous day’s Rs407,778.
Earlier this week, on October 1, 2025, gold in Pakistan touched an all-time high of Rs410,278 per tola, setting a new milestone in the country’s bullion trade.
Similarly, the 24-karat per 10-gram rate increased by Rs1,801, settling at Rs351,404 against the earlier Rs349,603. Traders and analysts believe that persistent uncertainty in international financial markets and ongoing geopolitical tensions are the main factors behind the elevated levels of gold prices in Pakistan.
On the international front, gold witnessed a notable surge as well, gaining $21 per ounce to close at $3,886 compared to the previous day’s $3,865. Analysts attributed this upward trend to concerns over global trade disputes, currency market fluctuations, and rising energy costs that have spurred investors to seek safe-haven assets.
Market observers also highlighted that any changes in U.S. monetary policy, inflation outlook, or regional conflicts could keep gold prices volatile in the coming weeks. In this environment, investors in Pakistan continue to view bullion as a secure hedge against economic uncertainty, pushing demand higher in the domestic market.
