Karachi, November 4, 2025 – The Saudi Riyal (SAR) continued to maintain stability against the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) in the open currency market on Tuesday, reflecting steady demand from importers, travelers, and remittance channels.
As of 9:05 AM (Pakistan Standard Time), the buying rate of one Saudi Riyal stood at Rs 74.97, while the selling rate was recorded at Rs 75.60, according to the latest updates from open market dealers.
These exchange rates are subject to fluctuation throughout the day depending on foreign currency demand, market liquidity, and international economic trends. The rates also vary slightly between exchange companies and banks depending on transaction volumes and availability of foreign currency.
In practical terms, the buying rate represents the amount a money exchanger or bank offers when purchasing Saudi Riyals from customers, whereas the selling rate reflects the price at which they sell Riyals back to buyers.
The SAR to PKR parity is determined entirely by open market dynamics — primarily influenced by remittance inflows from Pakistani expatriates in Saudi Arabia, demand for Riyals during the Umrah and Hajj seasons, and the overall performance of the Rupee in the international market.
Experts say the current stability in the Riyal-Rupee exchange rate indicates balanced foreign exchange reserves and steady remittance flows. However, short-term volatility may still occur if global oil prices, trade imbalances, or geopolitical factors impact Pakistan’s currency outlook.
