Gold Rate Today in Karachi — Live Gold Price per Gram
Karachi is Pakistan's biggest gold market, and the Sarafa Bazaar in Saddar is where the city's tola rate for sona (سونا) is made. Being the country's main port, Karachi effectively sets the landed cost of imported gold, and the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems & Jewellers Association rate that dealers here follow moves the national price. Everything is quoted per tola (11.664 grams) in Pakistani Rupees (Rs).
The table below takes the live international spot price, applies the current USD-PKR rate, and breaks it down per gram, per tola and per karat so you can compare against the Saddar bazaar rate before mazdoori (making charges). Jewellery is usually 22k or 21k; 24k is bought as tola bars for saving.
Because the rupee has been volatile, the Karachi tola rate can jump even when international spot is flat, and the local rate typically carries a small premium over pure parity for import and dealer margins.
