Gold and Dollar Rates in Pakistan Today — Friday 6 November 2026: 24K Gold Rs 421,125–435,500 per Tola, Dollar Flat at Rs 276.60–277.10
Gold eased on the Karachi sarafa board this morning, while the US dollar stayed steady against the rupee. The All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association (APSGJA) board, posted at 05:00 PKT, puts 24K gold at Rs 422,900 per tola, down Rs 1,500 (-0.35%) from yesterday's Rs 424,400. Across the main rate trackers, 24K gold trades in a range of Rs 419,000–423,581 per tola this morning.
| Karat | Per Tola (11.66 g) | Per 10 Grams | Per Gram |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24K | Rs 419,000–423,581 (board Rs 422,900) | Rs 359,230–363,158 | Rs 35,923–36,316 (board Rs 36,257) |
| 22K | Rs 384,081–388,282 (board Rs 387,700) | Rs 332,372–332,895 | Rs 33,237–33,290 |
| 21K | Rs 366,625–370,633 (board Rs 370,000) | Rs 317,253–317,764 | Rs 31,725–31,776 |
| 18K | Rs 314,250–317,686 (board Rs 317,200) | Rs 271,931–272,369 | Rs 27,193–27,237 |
Why the figures differ: the sarafa board, the rate trackers and the international spot price are three different numbers. The board is the Karachi Sarafa Bazaar's own quote; the trackers convert the London spot price at their own dollar rates; and the spot-derived price — about Rs 417,427–418,764 per tola this morning — sits below the board because the board adds a local premium of roughly Rs 2,500 per tola plus import and dealer costs. Your jeweller's final quote will differ again, because making charges are added on top.
The board gave back part of yesterday's jump. Yesterday the board closed at Rs 424,000 per tola after a Rs 2,400 rise that ended a six-day slide; today's Rs 422,900 pulls back Rs 1,500 of that gain. The international spot price is steady: the LBMA spot is $4,007.60 per troy ounce on the SarafaGold board calculation and $4,026.68 per ounce on the live spot tracker, updated 04:18 UTC. Over the last 30 days gold is down about 4.86%, trading between Rs 421,010 and Rs 442,501 per tola — well below the late-September highs near Rs 447,700.
The dollar is essentially flat. The interbank rate is Rs 276.81–276.94 per US dollar this morning (Rs 276.81 on the SBP interbank closing trackers, Rs 276.94 on the SarafaGold board, Finnhub 276.863), against Rs 276.82 yesterday — a move of about 0.05%. The open-market cash rate is around Rs 279.71, and card-network rates sit close to interbank (Visa bid Rs 276.47, ask Rs 276.93 for 27 October 2026). Over the past month the dollar has slipped about 0.1% against the rupee.
Gold: the sarafa board starts from the LBMA international spot price, converts it at the open-market dollar rate, and adds the local premium — which is why the board rate is never exactly the converted spot price. Dollar: the interbank rate is what banks trade among themselves; exchange companies buy and sell cash to the public at the open-market rate, usually Rs 1–3 higher, with their own spread. Rates move through the day, so treat this post as a morning snapshot, not a live quote.
