KARACHI — Gold prices in Pakistan have reached record-breaking levels, surging sharply on Wednesday as international bullion rates continued to climb and investors turned to safe-haven assets amid growing global uncertainty.
According to data from the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA), the price of gold per tola jumped by a massive Rs. 8,400 in a single day, reaching Rs. 425,178. Meanwhile, the price of 10-gram gold rose by Rs. 7,202 to Rs. 364,521.
Just a day earlier, gold had already set a new high of Rs. 416,778 per tola after gaining Rs. 1,500, marking one of the fastest price surges in recent months.
In the international market, gold traded at $4,039 per ounce, including a $20 premium, reflecting an $84 jump during the day, according to the APGJSA report.
Silver prices also moved upward, with the per tola rate increasing by Rs. 55 to Rs. 4,984.
The rally in precious metals comes as global investors seek safety in gold amid persistent economic instability and geopolitical tensions. Analysts believe that if the trend continues, local prices could soon approach the Rs. 450,000 mark per tola — setting yet another historic record.
Experts say the surge reflects both global demand and a weaker rupee, which continues to impact local bullion rates.
