Gold prices in Pakistan fell sharply on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, as a decline in international bullion rates pushed down prices in the local market. The price of 24-karat gold dropped by Rs3,000 per tola, bringing the latest rate to Rs437,836.
The price of 10 grams of gold also decreased by Rs2,572 to Rs375,373. The latest decline reversed the increase recorded during the previous trading session, when gold prices had risen by Rs900 per tola to reach Rs440,836 on Tuesday.
The latest movement shows how changes in the international gold market continue to affect prices for buyers and investors in Pakistan.
Latest Gold Prices in Pakistan
According to the reported market rates, one tola of gold is priced at Rs437,836, while 10 grams cost Rs375,373. Both rates recorded a significant decline compared with the previous session.
The drop may affect people planning to buy gold jewellery, invest in bullion or purchase gold for upcoming wedding events. However, the final price charged by jewellery shops can vary depending on the city, local market conditions, making charges and the purity of the gold.
Buyers should also confirm the latest rates with local jewellers before making a purchase, as prices can change with movements in the international market and currency exchange rates.
International Gold Prices Also Decline
Gold prices in the international market also moved lower on Wednesday. The price fell by $30 to $4,153 per ounce, according to the reported figures.
International bullion prices are an important factor in determining gold rates in Pakistan. Changes in global demand, investor activity, currency movements and economic uncertainty can influence the price of the precious metal.
When international prices fall, local gold rates may also decrease, although the extent of the change depends on domestic market conditions and exchange rates.
The latest decline in global prices was reflected in Pakistan’s bullion market, where gold recorded a Rs3,000 drop per tola.
Silver Prices in Pakistan Today
Silver prices also declined on Wednesday. The price of silver fell by Rs172 per tola to Rs6,360, according to the reported market rates.
Like gold, silver prices are influenced by international market movements. However, silver also has significant industrial uses, which can affect its demand and price trends.
The decline in both precious metals indicates a downward movement in the reported local bullion market rates for the day.
Gold Rates in Lahore, Karachi and Other Cities
The reported city-wise gold rates showed differences across Pakistan. Lahore’s quoted figures stood at Rs433,000 and Rs432,500, while Karachi’s reported rate was Rs433,000.
Peshawar recorded a reported figure of Rs447,500, while Pathoor’s quoted rates stood at Rs428,000 and Rs426,000.
These city-wise figures do not fully match the national benchmark rate of Rs437,836 per tola. The differences may reflect separate market quotations or reporting inconsistencies. Buyers should verify the applicable rate with a reliable local bullion dealer before relying on these figures.
What Buyers Should Know
Gold prices can change daily, making it important for buyers to check updated rates before purchasing jewellery or bullion. People planning to buy gold should compare local quotations and ask about additional jewellery-making charges.
Investors should also remember that a single day’s decline does not necessarily indicate a long-term downward trend. Future prices will depend on international bullion movements, exchange rates and broader market conditions.
For Wednesday, October 14, the reported national rate places gold at Rs437,836 per tola, down Rs3,000 from the previous session.
