Gold Prices Slip in Pakistan After Record High, Per Tola Rate Falls by Rs2,000 in 2026
Gold prices in Pakistan saw a sharp correction after reaching historic levels, with the price falling by Rs2,000 per tola, offering brief relief to buyers and investors in 2026. The decline was confirmed by the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association, following strong volatility in recent days.
After touching a peak of Rs398,800 per tola, gold is now trading at around Rs396,800, while the price of 10 grams dropped by nearly Rs1,700. The correction comes after continuous gains that had pushed local rates to record highs within a short period.

The local drop mirrors movements in the international gold market, where prices eased by $20 per ounce. Analysts link the change to global market adjustments, shifting investor sentiment, and currency dynamics, particularly the USD to PKR exchange rate.
Market observers say the decline may be temporary, as gold remains sensitive to global economic uncertainty, inflation trends, and geopolitical developments. For jewelry buyers, the dip offers a short buying window, while investors are advised to stay cautious amid ongoing price swings.
Despite the correction, gold continues to be viewed as a safe-haven asset in Pakistan, especially during periods of economic instability.
