Karachi, November 13, 2025 – In a dramatic turn for bullion investors, gold prices in Pakistan soared by a massive Rs8,300 per tola on Thursday, tracking a sharp rally in global markets.

According to the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewelers Association (APSGJA), the price of 24-karat gold jumped to Rs443,062 per tola, up from the previous day’s Rs434,762. The surge marks one of the biggest single-day increases in recent weeks, pushing prices closer to their record high of Rs456,900 per tola set on October 17, 2025.

Similarly, the price of 24-karat gold per 10 grams surged by Rs7,116, reaching Rs379,854, compared to Rs372,738 a day earlier.

Market analysts say the latest surge reflects growing investor anxiety amid geopolitical tensions, global trade uncertainties, and fluctuating oil prices that have driven investors toward safe-haven assets like gold.

“The rally in international bullion prices has once again fueled demand in Pakistan’s local markets,” said traders, noting that the country’s gold rates are directly linked to global price trends and the Pakistani rupee’s performance against the U.S. dollar.

In the international market, gold prices jumped by $83 per ounce, climbing to $4,207 from the previous close of $4,124, marking a strong rebound driven by expectations of economic slowdowns and possible interest rate cuts.

With global uncertainty showing no signs of easing, experts predict further volatility in coming days, as investors continue to hedge against inflation and currency pressures by turning to gold.
