Pakistan’s gold market witnessed dramatic movement as prices surged to historic levels following a strong rally in the international bullion market. The sharp increase reflects growing global demand for safe-haven assets amid economic uncertainty and rising geopolitical tensions.
On Monday, the price of gold per tola remained at an unprecedented Rs550,562, marking one of the highest levels ever recorded in the country. Meanwhile, the price of 10 grams of gold jumped by Rs8,574, reaching Rs472,018, highlighting the intensity of the ongoing upward trend in precious metal markets.

Market analysts say the surge is largely linked to gains in international gold prices, currency fluctuations, and investor movement toward safer investment options. Gold traditionally performs strongly during periods of global instability, prompting investors to shift funds away from riskier assets.

Jewellers reported increased market volatility, with prices changing rapidly in response to international trading sessions. Buyers have adopted a cautious approach, while investors continue monitoring global economic indicators closely.
Silver Prices Also Jump
Silver prices also recorded a significant rise, following gold’s bullish momentum. The per tola rate of silver increased by Rs388, pushing the price to Rs9,862. The rise in silver indicates broader strength across the precious metals sector rather than a gold-only rally.
Experts believe continued fluctuations in currency markets and global political developments could keep precious metal prices elevated in the coming days. However, they also warn that sudden corrections remain possible if international market sentiment shifts.
Traders advise consumers planning wedding or investment purchases to closely track daily rates, as rapid price swings may create both risks and opportunities in Pakistan’s gold and silver markets.
