Gold Prices Fall by Rs5,900 Per Tola in Pakistan Amid Global Decline
Date: July 25, 2025
Gold rates in Pakistan saw a sharp decline on Friday, mirroring the dip in global markets. According to the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA), the price of gold per tola fell by Rs5,900, bringing the new rate to Rs359,000.
This sharp drop follows a recent spike on Thursday, when gold prices had climbed to Rs364,900 per tola after a rise of Rs3,700. The recent price correction reflects pressure from the global market, where gold has also seen a decline in value.
Impact on 10-Gram Gold Prices
Alongside the per tola price, the cost of 10 grams of gold also decreased by Rs5,058, resulting in a new price of Rs307,784. This fluctuation continues the week’s volatility in the local gold market, largely influenced by international trends.
Global Market Influence
The international gold rate has also witnessed a notable decline. As reported by APGJSA, the global price has fallen to $3,363 per ounce, with a $20 premium. This represents a $61 drop from previous rates. Experts attribute this decline to stronger economic indicators from the U.S. and expectations of potential interest rate hikes.
Silver Prices Also Decline
Silver rates also recorded a decline on Friday alongside the drop in gold prices. The price of silver per tola decreased by Rs24, bringing it down to Rs4,057. This trend aligns with a general cooling in the precious metals market.
Market Sentiment
Traders and jewelers reported a decline in customer activity, as many buyers are waiting to see if prices will decrease further. Some perceive this as an opportune moment to invest in gold, while others remain cautious due to the unpredictable nature of international financial markets.
Conclusion
The recent decline in gold and silver prices in Pakistan highlights ongoing volatility in the global market. With the local economy closely linked to international trends, buyers and investors are encouraged to stay informed and exercise caution. Should the global market stabilize, local prices may rebound in the coming days, but for now, the market remains under pressure.
