Gold Price Pakistan Rises to Rs 423,436 per Tola on 26 October

The gold price Pakistan rate rose on Monday, 26 October 2026, ending a run of falls in the local market. The All Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association, known as APGJSA, set the closing rate for 24 karat gold at Rs 423,436 per tola.

That closing rate was Rs 1,400 higher than the previous session. On Saturday, 24 October, the same 24 karat rate had fallen by Rs 2,500 to Rs 422,036 per tola. The rise on Monday therefore reversed only part of the previous day's fall.

For buyers, the tola rate is the headline figure, but many shops also quote a 10 gram rate. The 10 gram rate for 24 karat gold rose by Rs 1,201 on Monday to Rs 363,028. On Saturday, that 10 gram rate had stood at Rs 361,827.

What the gold price Pakistan figure means

The gold price Pakistan figure quoted in this article is the APGJSA closing rate for 26 October. It is the rate used as the day's reference for 24 karat gold in the local sarafa market. Other websites may show different daily figures, but this article uses only the APGJSA closing rates given here.

The 22 karat market also moved higher on Monday. The 10 gram rate for 22 karat gold rose by Rs 1,101 to Rs 332,787. That figure matters for buyers who buy 22 karat jewellery, because it is priced on a different purity level from 24 karat gold.

In simple terms, 24 karat gold is the purest form quoted in the market, while 22 karat gold is a lower purity level used for much jewellery. The two rates therefore move in the same direction on most days, but the rupee amounts are different. A buyer should check which purity a shop is quoting before comparing two prices.

International gold and silver

International gold also rose on Monday. The international rate increased by $14 to $4,009 per ounce. The gold price Pakistan rise came on a day when the international rate also moved higher, which is the context for the day's local closing figures.

Silver also gained in the local market. The silver rate per tola rose by Rs 20 to Rs 5,878. The 10 gram silver rate rose by Rs 17 to Rs 5,039. International silver rose by $0.20 to $54 per ounce.

Silver moves are smaller in rupee terms than gold moves, because the price per tola is far lower. Even so, the day's silver figures are part of the same APGJSA closing update. Buyers who follow both metals will note that gold and silver both closed higher on Monday.

October context

Even after this rise, the gold price Pakistan rate remains below the October peak. The October peak was Rs 442,036 per tola on 10 October 2026. The 26 October closing rate of Rs 423,436 per tola is therefore below that peak, despite the Rs 1,400 rise on the day.

That context matters for readers who saw the higher October figures. A single day's rise does not by itself return the market to the peak level. The gap between the peak and the 26 October rate is the difference a reader should keep in mind when reading the day's headline.

For a household buyer, the gold price Pakistan rate matters most at the time of purchase. The rate can change from one session to the next, as shown by the fall on Saturday and the rise on Monday. Checking the latest APGJSA closing rate before a purchase is therefore more useful than relying on an older rate.

The 10 gram figures help a buyer who is not buying a full tola. A 10 gram purchase is smaller than a tola purchase, so the total amount paid will be lower.

The gold price Pakistan rate per unit is set from the same market. The 24 karat 10 gram rate on Monday was Rs 363,028, and the 22 karat 10 gram rate was Rs 332,787.

This article is not investment advice. It reports the APGJSA closing rates for 26 October 2026 and the previous session for comparison. It does not recommend buying or selling gold or silver, and it does not predict the next session's rate.

Readers should also note that the figures in this article are closing rates. They are the reference rates for the day, not a quote for a single shop. A shop's final bill can differ for reasons such as the item, its weight, and its design, so the closing rate alone is not a final bill.

In short, the gold price Pakistan market closed higher on Monday after falling on Saturday. The tola rate rose Rs 1,400 to Rs 423,436, the 24 karat 10 gram rate rose to Rs 363,028, and silver also closed higher. The market remains below its October peak, and the next session will set a fresh closing rate.
