Gold prices in the local Pakistani market opened on a stable note this Saturday, mirroring the quiet sentiment reported in the international bullion market.
According to data released by the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA), the domestic rates have remained unchanged from yesterday’s closing figures, continuing the trend seen over the last 24 hours.
| Item | Purity/Unit | Rate (PKR/USD) | Change (PKR/USD) |
| Gold | Tola (24 Kt) | Rs 438,862 | (0) |
| Gold | 10 Grams (24 Kt) | Rs 376,253 | (0) |
| Gold | 10 Grams (22 Kt) | Rs 344,911 | (0) |
| International Gold | Per Ounce ($) | $4,165 | (0) |
| Silver | Tola (24 Kt) | Rs 5,642 | (0) |
| Silver | 10 Grams (24 Kt) | Rs 4,837 | (0) |
| International Silver | Per Ounce ($) | $53.70 | (0) |
The stability in the local market comes despite a slight uptick in the international spot price, which is hovering near $4,165 per ounce.
This divergence suggests that the initial quiet trading session is still absorbing the recent movement in the global market.
Change Expected Later Today
Market analysts indicate that the current stable pricing is likely to be revised later today on Saturday, specifically after 1:00 PM (PKT), as more significant data from the international bullion markets and currency fluctuations are factored into the local closing rates.
Buyers and sellers are advised to check for the official afternoon update from the APGJSA.
