Gold prices in Pakistan’s bullion market remained firm on Friday, May 01, 2026, with 24K gold recorded at Rs. 483,500 per tola. The latest rates, issued by the Pakistan Sarafa Market, indicate a stable but elevated pricing environment, reflecting continued dependence on international bullion movements and exchange rate fluctuations.
According to the updated structure, 22K gold was priced at Rs. 443,205 per tola, while 21K gold stood at Rs. 423,063 per tola. Lower purity categories also followed a consistent pattern, with 18K gold recorded at Rs. 362,625 per tola. The uniform gap between different purities highlights a balanced refining cost structure in the domestic market, with no irregular pricing distortions observed.
Per gram rates also maintained proportional alignment, as 24K gold was valued at Rs. 41,453 per gram. Market observers note that such consistency suggests controlled domestic demand adjustments rather than speculative pressure. However, overall sentiment remains cautious due to high price levels, which continue to restrict retail-level buying activity.
Analysts link the current pricing trend to fluctuations in global gold markets and slight movements in the Pakistani rupee against the US dollar. Since Pakistan depends heavily on imported bullion, even minor international changes directly influence local rates. The market is currently being described as stable, though sensitive to external economic indicators.
