How Is the Gold Rate Decided in Pakistan?
Pakistan has no gold mine production of its own — the rate follows the international gold price (London / LBMA spot market) converted into rupees at the current US dollar rate. The All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association announces the daily rate based on the Karachi Sarafa Bazaar, and the same benchmark is followed in Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and every other city. Jewellers add their own making charges on top, which is why the final jewellery price differs from shop to shop.
Which Karat Should You Buy?
24K is the purest gold (99.9%) and is mostly bought as bars, coins and biscuits for investment. 22K (91.6%) is the standard for jewellery in Pakistan because it is stronger. 21K (87.5%) and 18K (75%) are mixed with other metals for durability and are used in modern and stone-studded designs.
Tips Before Buying Gold
Always check the daily rate before visiting a jeweller. Ask for the purity stamp (hallmark) on the item, get the weight checked on a certified scale in front of you, and remember that making charges are separate from the gold rate — they depend on the design and can be negotiated. Keep the receipt safe; it is needed if you ever sell the gold back.
