Gold and silver prices in Pakistan experienced a decline on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, following a fall in the international bullion market. The All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association (APSGJA) reported the latest rates.
The price of 24-karat gold per tola fell by Rs1,500, dropping from Rs532,062 to Rs530,562. Similarly, the price of 10 grams of 24-karat gold decreased by Rs1,286, reaching Rs454,871. In the global market, gold prices fell by $15 to $5,082 per ounce, contributing to the local prices decrease.
Silver prices also recorded a decline. The rate of 24-karat silver per tola fell by Rs212, reaching Rs11,640. Analysts attributed the prices decrease to a combination of global market trends and cautious investor sentiment.
Market experts said gold remains a safe-haven asset despite the prices decrease. Its intrinsic value, limited supply, and independence from government policies continue to attract investors during periods of economic instability.
Geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, and market volatility often push investors toward gold and silver, reinforcing their status as stable investments. Analysts noted that even as prices decrease, demand for bullion remains strong due to ongoing uncertainty in global markets.
Gold has historically served as a hedge against inflation and currency depreciation. Its ornamental value aside, gold provides financial security during economic stress, and silver complements it as a widely traded precious metal.
With global economic and political instability expected to continue, analysts predict that gold and silver prices may stabilize soon, although short-term fluctuations could lead to further prices decrease in local markets.
Investors and traders are advised to monitor international trends closely, as movements in global bullion prices directly impact Pakistan’s domestic gold and silver markets.
