Gold Price Surge In Pakistan Reaches Rs541,262 Per Tola

On February 25, 2026, gold prices in Pakistan saw a modest increase, with the price per tola rising to Rs541,262 after gaining Rs1,300 during the day. This follows a significant rise the previous day when prices had already climbed by Rs3,400 to Rs539,962. The international gold market also experienced a boost, with prices increasing by $13 to $5,185 per ounce, as it approaches the $5,200 mark. According to the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association, the price of 10 grams of gold in Pakistan rose to Rs464,044, reflecting ongoing demand for gold as a safe-haven asset amidst geopolitical tensions. Silver prices also rose, climbing by Rs268 to reach Rs9,554 per tola, indicating a strong correlation between the two precious metals in response to global market dynamics (ProPakistani). Analysts have noted that gold prices have surged over 25% in the past three months, driven by global economic uncertainty and local inflationary pressures. As one analyst stated, "The sustained demand for gold is a response to both currency depreciation and the need for a secure investment during turbulent times" (ARY News). Market sentiment remains positive, with expectations that prices may continue to rise if global uncertainties persist, further driving local demand for gold and silver as protective investments (SAMAA TV).
