Gold Prices in Pakistan Plummet: Essential Price Updates for August 15, 2025
KARACHI, August 15, 2025 – Gold rates in Pakistan today captured the attention of investors and buyers as prices took a noticeable dip, driven by global market trends and local economic factors. If you’re eyeing the gold prices today or considering an investment in this timeless asset, here’s the must-know breakdown of the 24K gold price for August 15, 2025.
The All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewelers Association reported that 24-karat Gold Prices per tola was priced at Rs. 357,100, down Rs. 1,000 from the previous day’s Rs. 358,100. Similarly, 10 grams of 24K gold traded at Rs. 306,155, a decrease of Rs. 858, while 22-karat gold per 10 grams stood at Rs. 280,652. However, some sources, such as economy.pk and goldrates1.pk, cited a higher rate of Rs. 362,000 per tola for 24K gold, pointing to potential inconsistencies in local market reporting.
Silver prices remained unchanged, with a tola at Rs. 4,072 and 10 grams at Rs. 3,491. Internationally, gold fell by $10 to $3,344 per ounce, while silver held steady at $38.39, per the Sarafa Association.
What’s behind this plummet? The gold rate in Pakistan is closely tied to international bullion markets, where prices have fluctuated between $3,250 and $3,450 recently. Global factors like easing inflation concerns, shifts in U.S. interest rates, and currency strength are key drivers. Locally, the Pakistani rupee’s volatility and seasonal demand for gold jewelry—particularly during wedding seasons—can spark price swings. Today’s decline may reflect a global market correction or reduced local demand following recent highs, such as the Rs. 362,700 peak on August 8.
Gold remains a powerful asset in Pakistan, serving as both a cultural staple for jewelry and a hedge against economic uncertainty. Yet, the variation in reported prices across cities like Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar raises questions about market transparency. Are local dealers fully aligned with global trends, or are regional margins creating discrepancies? This inconsistency could affect buyer confidence, making it crucial to cross-check rates with trusted sources like the Sarafa Association.
For investors, today’s dip could be a golden opportunity to buy, especially with global uncertainties keeping gold’s safe-haven appeal strong. Keep a close watch on currency fluctuations and international trends to time your purchases.
