Karachi, December 30, 2025 – Gold prices in Pakistan witnessed a historic single-day decline on Tuesday, falling by Rs10,700 per tola amid a continuous downward trend in the local bullion market. This sharp drop marks the largest fall in gold rates in Pakistan in recent times.
According to the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewelers Association (APSGJA), the price of 24-karat gold per tola slipped to Rs459,462 from the previous day’s closing of Rs470,162. This decline comes shortly after gold prices had peaked at Rs475,662 per tola on December 27, 2025, signaling heightened volatility in the domestic market. Similarly, 24-karat gold per 10 grams decreased by Rs9,174, ending at Rs393,914 compared to the prior day’s Rs403,088.
Market analysts attributed this sharp fall in gold prices to ongoing weakness in international gold markets. Globally, gold dropped by $107 per ounce, closing at $4,371 from $4,478, as geopolitical tensions and trade disputes created uncertainty among investors. Experts explained that fluctuations in the international market, combined with currency dynamics in Pakistan, are directly influencing local bullion rates.
The recent slump has prompted investors and traders in Pakistan to closely monitor both domestic and global economic indicators. With market sentiment remaining cautious, the APSGJA and bullion experts advise buyers and sellers to track daily price movements before making significant transactions.
As the gold market continues to react to international trends, analysts expect further volatility in Pakistan’s gold prices in the coming days, making it essential for investors to stay informed about global economic developments.
