All Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Association (APGJA) says price of one tola of 24-karat gold climbed to Rs424,236 after the latest increase
KARACHI: (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News-July 18th, 2026) The gold prices in Pakistan continued their upward trajectory on Saturday, with the price of one tola increasing by Rs2,400, driven by a fresh rally in the international bullion market.
All Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Association (APGJA) said that the price of one tola of 24-karat gold climbed to Rs424,236 after the latest increase.
The rise reflects the continued volatility in global precious metals markets, where stronger international prices have pushed domestic rates higher.
The association also reported a significant increase in the price of 10 grams of 24-karat gold, which gained Rs2,057 to settle at Rs363,713 across the country.
Market analysts said local gold prices generally move in line with international trends, while fluctuations in the Pakistani rupee against the US Dollar can also influence domestic bullion rates. The latest increase comes as investors around the world continue to monitor global economic developments, inflation trends and central bank policies, all of which have a direct impact on demand for safe-haven assets such as gold.
In the international bullion market, the price of gold rose by $24 per ounce, taking it to $4,018 per ounce. The global surge was reflected almost immediately in Pakistan’s local market, resulting in a notable increase in retail gold prices.
Gold remains one of the most closely watched investment assets in Pakistan, with many buyers tracking daily price movements before making purchases for investment, savings or jewellery. Traders expect prices to remain sensitive to developments in international markets in the coming days.
With the latest increase, gold has reached one of its highest levels in recent weeks, adding to the cost of jewellery and investment-grade bullion. Dealers say future price movements will largely depend on international market performance, Currency fluctuations and investor sentiment, which continue to shape the direction of gold prices both globally and in Pakistan.
