Gold price in Pakistan today: prices drop as international indicators, rupee performance press on bullion.
KARACHI, Business Desk, Dec 2, 2025
The Pakistani gold price relaxed on Tuesday when the changes in the world bullion markets and currency movements exerted pressure on the local rates which were negative. Small but significant changes in per-tola and per-gram rates in major cities were noticed by the traders and the consumers who were tracking the daily quotes and were guided by not only international bullion trends but also the domestic currency forces.
The 24-karat gold price was calculated to be around 451,000/452000 per tola and 24K rate was at about 386000/387500 per 10 grams, according to sarafa market tallies published today. 22K and 21K rates were quoted to be lower in that proportion. These are live market feeds consisting of local bullion trackers and city sarafa associations.

The trend in the current gold price was also heavy influenced by international factors. The world gold spot gold scaled back a portion of his gains following a recent leap with stronger U.S. Treasury yields and profit selling curbing non-yielding bullion instant demand. The spot gold relaxed out of a six-week high on Tuesday and the futures recorded slight losses in a tentative macro environment. Short-term factors of bullion momentum are identified by analysts as future U.S. economic measures and interest-rate prospects.
The domestic price fluctuations were exaggerated by the performance of the Pakistani rupee and the importer hedging activity according to the local market players. The weakening of the rupee to dollar will increase the cost of imported bullion and jewelry to Pakistani consumers, a trend which in many cases is reflected in local gold price offers increasing in line with foreign transactions;
a stronger rupee will decrease the prices of local transactions compared to foreign actions. The brokers pointed to currency jitters and risk-off mood in equity and crypto markets as having recently caused investors to shift to the safe-haven assets, which under such circumstances, leads to a rapid rise in the gold price when the world begins to de-risk appetite.
Although the wider safe-haven interest, a number of local outlets registered a net decline in the rates of gold in Pakistan today than in the earlier session. Small intraday falls in certain weight measures were reported in market bulletins issued by Karachi and Lahore sarafas, a step taken by the industry sources to said that it was losing to profit-taking by retailers and the lack of physical demand as the season continued. People monitoring wedding purchases and investment prices were still seeking short-term clarity before they make huge purchases.
The main recommendations made by the analysts advising those in the market is that in the near term, the price of gold is still sensitive to three issues; signals given by monetary policy in the U.S., dollar-rupee exchange rate and the local buying physical trends (in particular jewelry just before festivals). A number of brokerage notes indicated that in case losses in the U.S. yields were stabilized, or the dollar fell, gold would rebound to historic highs; a situation that would be exaggerated in the home country by a less strong rupee. On the other hand, any obvious increase in the Treasury yields or stronger dollar would drive the prices down in Pakistani rupee.
What it implies to the buyers and small investors: buyers and small investors who are concerned with short-term purchases need to monitor international spot gold quotes as well as interbank rupee rate as such joint movement will dictate the actual price of gold in local shops. Long-term gold hedgers that consider gold a hedge against inflation can buy on downticks in the gold price, whereas jewelry holders can put off large purchases under the forecast of further losses in the near future. Market advisors also suggest that one should buy only with reputable dealers and should verify the new updates of the sarafa-market before the purchase.
To conclude, the international profit-taking, changes in the U.S. and the domestic currency can be observed as the combination of the effect of the gold price today in Pakistan. Although headline rates marginally fell on Tuesday, analysts caution that the volatility might soon reoccur in case macroeconomic indicators shift – with consumers and traders both staying on the ground on hourly updates in the sarafa markets and global bullion feeds.
