Gold prices in Pakistan continued their sharp upward trend mid-week, reflecting strong gains in international markets and increasing pressure on buyers across the local bullion sector.
According to rates issued by the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA), the price of gold per tola surged by Rs3,700 in a single day, reaching an impressive Rs543,262 in local markets.
The price of 10 grams of gold also recorded a significant increase of Rs3,172, climbing to Rs465,759. Market analysts say the rapid rise highlights sustained bullish momentum driven primarily by global economic uncertainty and rising international demand for safe-haven assets.

The latest increase follows another major jump a day earlier, when gold prices rose by Rs6,200 per tola to settle at Rs539,562, signaling strong upward momentum in bullion markets.
Internationally, gold prices climbed by $37 per ounce to reach $5,205, including a $20 premium. Analysts attribute the rally to geopolitical tensions, currency fluctuations, and investors shifting toward gold as a safe investment during uncertain economic conditions.
With consecutive increases recorded this week, traders warn that continued global volatility could keep local gold prices elevated, making jewellery purchases more expensive while benefiting investors holding physical gold assets.
