As the market opens today, August 20, 2025, gold prices in Pakistan show a slightly bullish trend following yesterday’s mixed trading. Investors are closely monitoring international gold markets, US economic indicators, and the PKR/USD exchange rate, all of which continue to influence domestic pricing.
💰 Opening Rates
| Purity | Per Tola (11.67g) | Per 10 Grams | Per Gram |
|---|---|---|---|
| 24K | PKR 359,200 | PKR 308,020 | PKR 30,802 |
| 22K | PKR 330,200 | PKR 283,020 | PKR 28,302 |
Compared to yesterday’s closing, 24K gold has increased by approximately PKR 700 per tola, while 22K gold has gained around PKR 1,200 per tola.
🌍 Global Market Influence
International gold opened at around $3,345 per ounce today. The slight increase reflects ongoing safe-haven demand amid geopolitical uncertainties and speculation about potential US Federal Reserve policy shifts. These global trends are contributing to today’s upward movement in domestic gold prices.
💱 Currency Exchange Impact
The Pakistani Rupee remains stable against the US Dollar, opening at PKR 282.80 in the inter-bank market. This currency stability helps contain the impact of international price movements on local gold rates.
📌 Market Outlook
Traders and buyers should watch market trends carefully throughout the day, as gold prices can fluctuate based on international signals, PKR movement, and local demand. Planning trades or purchases strategically can help maximize returns.
