Gold prices Pakistan today per tola for 24-karat metal stand at Rs409,736 after Saturday’s cut of Rs10,800, according to the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association. Ten grams of the same purity are listed at Rs351,282, a reduction of Rs9,259. Overseas, the metal retreated by $108 and was quoted at $3,872 an ounce, the association said.
Local board rates and silver
Those figures are the association’s published board for the day and are the reference many jewellers use when quoting customers. Silver moved lower as well, easing by Rs142 on the tola to a listed rate of Rs5,388. Together, the Saturday board points to a broad soft session for precious metals rather than a move limited to a single purity or weight.
Shoppers comparing tickets will see the tola and the 10-gram line both reset lower in the same session. Gold prices Pakistan today therefore open a cheaper window for anyone buying freshly priced stock, while sellers who marked inventory at earlier levels may need to adjust.
Why the metal is under pressure
The association tied the local reset to a steep retreat in global bullion. That slide unfolded during a wider risk-off mood in which technology shares fell on doubts that heavy artificial-intelligence spending will deliver enough profit. Gold, usually treated as a haven, has still faced selling amid market swings, uncertainty around the conflict involving Iran, high energy costs, volatile tech equities and worries about growing public debt.
Independent metals trader Tai Wong summed up the mood bluntly: “The sky is falling.” He said earnings once underpinned the AI-led equity rally, but that support now looks weaker. Commerzbank analysts argued that the tech-stock plunge may have forced sales of haven holdings such as gold, including through margin calls, though they still expect precious metals to recover later.
Path from the January peak
From a January high of $5,595 an ounce, gold is about 30 per cent lower, with Asian demand described as subdued. Analysts noted that when the ounce price slips under $4,000, purchases by central banks often pick up. Silver, platinum and palladium also posted heavy losses; unlike gold, they draw less backing from official-sector buying and haven flows. Wong said a long, steady slide in those metals was worrying because it offered little sign of a swift rebound.
For readers tracking gold prices Pakistan today, the near-term signal is the association’s Saturday board: a large tola cut, a matching 10-gram cut, softer silver, and an ounce price that has moved well below last winter’s peak while global markets remain unsettled.
