Karachi, July 30, 2024 – Gold prices in Pakistan experienced a notable decline on Tuesday, mirroring a downward trend observed in the international market.

Concurrently, the cost of gold per 10-gram dropped by Rs344, settling at Rs216,306.
This decline follows a global trend where the price of gold decreased by $2 per ounce, closing at $2,388. The international market’s movement has influenced local gold prices, reflecting a broader trend of falling gold values.
In contrast, silver prices in Pakistan remained stable. The per tola silver price held steady at Rs2,860, while the 10-gram silver price was unchanged at Rs2,451.98. This stability in silver prices comes despite fluctuations in gold values.
