Gold and Dollar Rates in Pakistan Today - Friday 30 October 2026

Here are today's fresh gold and US dollar rates in Pakistan, checked at about 10:00 AM PKT on Friday 30 October 2026. Gold eased further overnight while the rupee held almost perfectly flat. As always, sarafa, bank and dealer rates differ from one another, so this post gives you a sourced range, not a single blended figure.

Gold Rate Today: 24K Gold Rs 414,003 - Rs 423,500 per Tola

The 24-karat gold price in Pakistan is trading between Rs 414,003 and Rs 423,500 per tola this morning. The floor comes from the live spot-derived trackers: sarafa.pk's live stream showed Rs 414,003 (down 1.28 percent, with a 24-hour high of Rs 420,169), and TECHi's spot-derived local estimate put 24K at Rs 414,065 at 9:13 AM PKT. The Rawalpindi-Islamabad sarafa benchmark from PakGold sits in the middle of the range at Rs 415,587 (buying) to Rs 416,787 (selling), sarafa-confirmed at 12:54 AM and updated at 6:31 AM. Goldify's spot-derived quote stood at Rs 415,000 per tola, calculated from international spot gold at $3,998.60 per ounce with the rupee at 276.76 per dollar. At the top of the range, the open-market quote checked by gold.org.pk was Rs 421,000 at 7:07 AM, while an Islamabad dealer (goldsilverstudio.pk, F-7 Markaz counter, updated last evening) was dealing 24K at Rs 421,000 buying and Rs 423,500 selling.

What Moved Since Yesterday

Gold has softened further. Yesterday morning's published range was Rs 420,448 - Rs 426,419 per tola; today's range of Rs 414,003 - Rs 423,500 sits roughly Rs 4,000 - Rs 6,000 lower, about a 1.3 percent drop. International spot gold fell to around $3,999 - $4,014 per ounce, down from $4,039 - $4,063.50 at yesterday morning's check, and PakGold's Rawalpindi-Islamabad benchmark slipped from Rs 420,448 (sarafa-confirmed yesterday morning) to Rs 415,587 - Rs 416,787 today.
