A six-year climb, decoded.
The chart tracks the 24-karat gold rate per tola over roughly the last six years. The steep rise reflects two forces in the same direction: a rising international gold price and a weaker rupee. For a Pakistani saver, gold has behaved like a hedge against both global uncertainty and local currency depreciation.
How gold pricing works in Pakistan
Gold trades globally in US dollars per troy ounce (31.1035 g) of pure 24-karat gold. Pakistan quotes gold in rupees per tola (11.6638 g), and also per 10 grams and per gram. Because two variables drive the rupee price - the global gold price and the exchange rate - Pakistani gold can rise even when international gold is flat, simply because the rupee weakened. Purity matters: 22K ≈ 91.7% of 24K, 21K ≈ 87.5%, 18K ≈ 75%. The daily reference is published by the Sarafa associations; the shop price also adds making charges.
Is gold a good investment?
Gold's strength is holding value when the rupee and other assets wobble - over recent years it has broadly kept pace with, and at times beaten, inflation. Its weakness is that it produces no income: a tola pays nothing while you hold it, and the price can stall or fall for long stretches, with real storage costs. A balanced approach treats gold as a 10-20% diversifier, not a core holding. For a structured allocation, use the investment comparison tool or read the full gold investment guide.
Zakat on gold: if your gold - alone or with cash and other zakatable wealth - exceeds the nisab and is held for one lunar year, zakat is 2.5% of its market value. Work it out with the zakat calculator.
