Gold prices in Pakistan recorded a fresh increase on March 31, 2026, following slight gains in the international bullion market. The per tola gold rate climbed to Rs475,962, reflecting renewed activity in global trading despite overall monthly pressure on the precious metal.
According to market data, the price of 10 grams of gold rose by Rs3,343, reaching Rs408,060. Silver prices also moved upward alongside gold, with the per tola rate increasing by Rs70 to settle at Rs7,524, indicating a broader rise across precious metals in local markets.
Latest Gold and Silver Rates in Pakistan
- Gold (Per Tola): Increased by Rs3,900 → Rs475,962
- Gold (10 Grams): Increased by Rs3,343 → Rs408,060
- Silver (Per Tola): Increased by Rs70 → Rs7,524
Despite the latest gains, analysts note that gold remains on track for its worst monthly performance in over 15 years. Rising global energy prices have reduced expectations that the Federal Reserve System will cut interest rates this year, which has placed downward pressure on bullion prices.
International Market Movement
In global trading, spot gold prices climbed 1.5% to $4,578.89 per ounce, while U.S. gold futures for April delivery rose 1.2% to $4,611.30, signaling renewed investor participation in the market.
Market experts said geopolitical developments also influenced price movements. Gold rebounded during early Asia-Pacific trading after Donald Trump indicated willingness to end the U.S. military campaign against Iran, triggering a risk-on sentiment across financial markets.
Monthly Decline Still Significant
Even with recent recovery, bullion prices have declined more than 13% during the month, marking the steepest drop since the Global Financial Crisis period in October 2008. Analysts attribute the sharp fall mainly to a stronger U.S. dollar and fading hopes of near-term monetary easing in the United States.
Experts suggest that gold prices in Pakistan will continue to fluctuate depending on international market trends, currency movements, and global economic developments in the coming weeks.
