Pakistan’s Gold Market Sees Another Sharp Increase
The gold price in Pakistan increased on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, with 24-karat gold gaining Rs4,300 per tola. The latest rise pushed the price of one tola of 24-karat gold to Rs441,636, according to rates shared by the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA).
The increase comes as local gold prices continue to respond to movements in the international bullion market. The latest change is important for jewellery buyers, traders and people who closely follow daily gold rates in Pakistan.
Gold Price in Pakistan Reaches Rs441,636 per Tola
The price of 24-karat gold climbed to Rs441,636 per tola on September 30. It was Rs437,336 per tola on the previous trading day, meaning the market recorded a daily increase of Rs4,300.
This latest movement has once again brought attention to the changing gold rate in Pakistan. Gold prices can change frequently because the domestic market is influenced by international gold prices and other market conditions.
For buyers planning to purchase jewellery or gold bars, checking the latest rate before making a transaction is therefore important.
24-Karat Gold Price Per 10 Grams
The price of 24-karat gold also increased on a 10-gram basis.
According to the latest APGJSA-linked figures reported by Mettis Global, 24-karat gold was priced at Rs378,631 per 10 grams, showing an increase of Rs3,686.
Meanwhile, 22-karat gold was quoted at Rs347,091 per 10 grams. The difference between 24-karat and 22-karat rates reflects the different levels of gold purity.

Silver Price Also Moves Higher
Gold was not the only precious metal to record an increase in Pakistan’s domestic market.
The price of 24-karat silver rose by Rs20 per tola to Rs6,578. On a 10-gram basis, silver increased by Rs17 to Rs5,639.
The move shows that both major precious metals recorded gains during the latest session, although the increase in silver was much smaller than the rise seen in gold.
International Gold Market Remains in Focus
International market movements also remain an important factor for investors and traders watching the gold price in Pakistan.
Mettis Global reported that spot gold was trading near $4,186 per ounce, up $1.80, or 0.04%, from the previous session. Traders were waiting for US inflation data for further clues about the Federal Reserve’s next policy decision.
US economic data can influence global financial markets because expectations about interest rates often affect the US dollar, Treasury yields and demand for precious metals.
As a result, local gold prices in Pakistan can also respond to changes in the international bullion market.
What the Latest Gold Price Means for Buyers
The latest increase means that people purchasing gold jewellery or other physical gold products will face a higher market rate than the previous session.
However, the actual amount paid for jewellery may differ from the quoted gold rate. Jewellery purchases can also include making charges and other applicable costs, depending on the seller and the type of item.
For this reason, buyers should confirm the current market rate and the complete price breakdown before purchasing gold.
Gold Market Records a Mixed Longer-Term Picture
Although gold recorded a daily increase of Rs4,300, the market table reported by Mettis Global shows that the price was Rs24,500 lower over one month. At the same time, the reported figures show a gain of Rs16,800 for the financial year to date and a decline of Rs15,326 for the calendar year to date.
This highlights why looking at only one day’s movement may not provide a complete picture of the gold market. Daily prices can rise or fall while the broader trend over a month or longer period may look different.
Gold Price in Pakistan: What to Watch Next
Market participants will continue to monitor international gold prices, US economic data and expectations surrounding Federal Reserve policy.
For local buyers, traders and jewellery businesses, changes in international bullion prices can remain an important indicator when tracking the gold price in Pakistan.
The latest data shows that 24-karat gold has moved back above Rs441,000 per tola, while silver has also recorded a modest increase.
Conclusion
The gold price in Pakistan rose by Rs4,300 per tola on September 30, taking the 24-karat rate to Rs441,636. The 24-karat price per 10 grams increased to Rs378,631, while 22-karat gold reached Rs347,091 per 10 grams. Silver also moved higher, reaching Rs6,578 per tola.
With international gold trading near $4,186 an ounce and markets awaiting US inflation data, precious-metal prices are likely to remain closely watched by traders and buyers.
