Pakistan trades gold on one national bullion benchmark — the Rawalpindi–Islamabad Sarafa rate — so the per-tola price is the same in every city on this page. As of 16 Oct 2026 that benchmark is Rs 429,417 per tola for 24K and Rs 393,632 for 22K.
What actually differs between cities is the making charge (banwai), the dealer spread, and which karats and designs local shops keep in stock. Each city page below carries today's live benchmark plus what to check in that particular market before you buy.

Frequently asked questions
Is the gold rate different in different cities of Pakistan?
No — all Pakistani cities price from the same Rawalpindi–Islamabad Sarafa benchmark, Rs 429,417 per tola for 24K as of 16 Oct 2026. Shop-to-shop differences come from making charges and dealer spreads, not from a separate city rate.
Which city has the cheapest gold in Pakistan?
The metal costs the same everywhere. Where you can save is on labour: cities with a lot of workshop competition often quote lower making charges, and buying plain rawa or TT-bar instead of a worked set avoids most of that cost entirely.
Why do jewellers in my city quote more than the rate shown here?
The rate on this site is the bullion benchmark for pure metal. A shop quote adds making charges, purity certification and its own margin, and jewellery is usually 22K or 21K rather than 24K, so ask for the metal price and the labour as separate lines.
