Karachi, November 7, 2025 — The exchange rate of the Saudi Riyal (SAR) against the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) remained relatively stable in the open market on Friday, reflecting a steady trend in the foreign exchange market.
As of 9:00 AM Pakistan Standard Time (PST), the buying rate of one Saudi Riyal stood at Rs 74.97, while the selling rate was recorded at Rs 75.59. These rates are provided by local exchange companies and may fluctuate throughout the day depending on market demand and supply conditions.
The buying rate represents the amount that exchange companies or banks offer when purchasing Saudi Riyals from customers, whereas the selling rate is the price at which they sell Saudi Riyals to customers.
Currency traders note that fluctuations in the SAR to PKR exchange rate are largely driven by global oil prices, remittance inflows, and foreign exchange reserves in Pakistan. The Saudi Riyal holds particular importance in Pakistan’s currency market due to the large number of Pakistani expatriates working in Saudi Arabia, whose remittances contribute significantly to the national economy.
Financial analysts predict that the SAR-PKR parity may continue to show minor adjustments in the coming days, depending on economic stability, import payments, and international market movements.
For the most accurate and updated rates, citizens and traders are advised to check with authorized exchange companies or banks before making currency transactions.
