How much is 1 tola gold in Pakistan?

24K gold per tola

• 24K gold per tola: PKR 478,000 as of 15 May 2026 (Hamariweb, Pakistani financial aggregator).
• UrduPoint reports PKR 477,992 per tola for the same date (UrduPoint, Karachi Sarafa-linked data).
• LivePriceOfGold lists a higher figure of PKR 489,319 per tola, reflecting a live bid/ask spread (LivePriceOfGold, international market tracker).

22K gold per tola

• 22K per tola is derived from the 24K rate by subtracting the 2-karat discount. Hamariweb gives PKR 438,279 (Hamariweb).
• FOREX.pk, a Pakistani currency and bullion site, also shows a comparable 22K per-tola figure.

21K gold per tola

• 21K per tola is PKR 418,244 according to UrduPoint (UrduPoint).
• 150Currency reports PKR 439,668 per tola for 21K, a higher figure likely due to a different conversion method (150Currency, international gold price site).

The implication: One tola of gold in Pakistan costs anywhere between PKR 418,000 and PKR 489,000 depending on the karat and source you trust. The safest reference for local retail is the Karachi Sarafa Association rate, which UrduPoint and Hamariweb both claim to reflect.

What is the rate of 24K gold in Pakistan?

24K gold per 10 grams

• 24K per 10 grams: PKR 409,808 from Hamariweb (Hamariweb).
• UrduPoint lists PKR 409,810 per 10 grams, essentially identical (UrduPoint).
• GoldPriceZ gives PKR 421,298.50 per 10 grams, again reflecting a different data source (GoldPriceZ, global gold price aggregator).

24K gold per gram

• Per gram: PKR 40,981 (Hamariweb) or PKR 42,130 (GoldPriceZ).
• LivePriceOfGold shows PKR 41,951.97 per gram with a bid/ask spread (LivePriceOfGold).

What this means: The 10-gram benchmark is the most widely quoted weight for daily tracking in Pakistan. The spread between sources is roughly 2.5%, a normal margin caused by timing and the difference between wholesale and retail pricing.

How much is 22 carat gold today?

22K gold per tola

• 22K per tola: PKR 438,279 (Hamariweb).
• FOREX.pk lists a similar derived rate (FOREX.pk).

22K gold per 10 grams

• 22K per 10 grams is approximately PKR 375,000 (using the 24K rate of PKR 409,808 minus the ~8.33% karat discount).
• This calculation matches the typical pricing pattern at Pakistani gold shops.

The pattern: 22K gold trades at roughly 91.7% of the 24K rate because its purity is 91.7% (917 fineness) according to industry standards (GoldPriceZ purity table). In Pakistan, 22K is the most popular karat for jewelry, so its per-tola rate is the one most buyers actually pay.

What is the live gold rate in Pakistan per tola 12 gram?

Clarifying the tola-to-gram conversion

• One tola equals 11.664 grams, not 12 grams — a common source of confusion.
• Therefore, a “per tola” rate for 12 grams does not exist. To get the rate for 12 grams, multiply the per-gram rate by 12.
• Using Hamariweb’s 24K per gram (PKR 40,981), 12 grams would cost PKR 491,772.

The catch: Many buyers mistakenly use 12 grams as a benchmark. The actual tola weight (11.664g) means that if you ask for “one tola” expecting 12 grams, you’ll pay less than you might think. Always confirm whether the quoted weight is a tola or 10 grams.

What is the gold rate in Pakistan for 21K today?

21K gold per tola

• 21K per tola: PKR 418,244 (UrduPoint) to PKR 439,668 (150Currency).
• The higher 150Currency figure suggests a different base rate or markup.

21K gold per 10 grams

• 21K per 10 grams: PKR 358,585 (UrduPoint).

The trade-off: 21K gold (87.5% purity) is lighter in colour and slightly less expensive than 22K. It’s commonly used in contemporary Pakistani jewelry designs that require lower weight while maintaining a solid gold look. For buyers, the per-tola difference between 21K and 22K is roughly PKR 20,000 — a meaningful saving on a large set.

The catch: Because 21K is less standard than 22K, some jewelers may apply a larger markup on 21K pieces. Always compare the per-gram rate against the karat’s pure gold content before buying.

The following comparison table highlights the differences across karats.

Three karats, one market — here’s how they stack up against each other on 15 May 2026.

*22K per 10g and per gram are approximate derived values.

The pattern: 22K and 21K rates are derived from the 24K base using purity ratios, so any change in the 24K price immediately affects all lower karats.

The purity table clarifies the gold content and typical uses.

The implication: Knowing the fineness helps buyers verify they are paying for the actual gold content, not just the karat label.

Confirmed facts vs. open questions

Confirmed facts

• Current 24K gold rate per tola is PKR 478,000 (Hamariweb) to PKR 477,992 (UrduPoint).
• Current 24K gold rate per 10 grams is PKR 409,808 (Hamariweb/UrduPoint).
• International spot gold is at $4,662.98 per ounce (LivePriceOfGold).
• One tola equals 11.664 grams.

What remains unclear

• Exact 22K and 21K rates differ across sources because they are derived, not directly quoted by all platforms.
• Whether rates include GST or other local taxes is not consistently noted.
• Future price direction is speculative and depends on US dollar strength, inflation, and geopolitical events.
• There is no single official government source for gold rates in Pakistan.

What this means: While the 24K rate is reliably sourced, lower karat rates may vary, so buyers should always confirm with a local jeweler or the Karachi Sarafa Association.

“The current rate for 24K gold per tola is PKR 478,000, according to our live feed,” states the Hamariweb gold rate page.

“Pakistan gold rates are updated regularly and provided according to the Karachi Sarafa Association,” notes UrduPoint’s data description.

For the average Pakistani gold buyer, the choice isn’t just between 22K and 24K — it’s between paying today’s rate and waiting. With a spread of up to 2.5% across sources and a small recent dip, the window for purchasing 24K at PKR 478,000 per tola may be narrow. For investors, the implication is clear: monitor the Karachi Sarafa rate daily, and for jewelry, lock in 22K at PKR 438,000 per tola before any upward correction driven by international spot gains.
