Gold prices per tola in Pakistan 29 April 2026

Latest Update: Gold price per tola drops by Rs 2500 in Pakistan on 29 April 2026.

Why Did Gold Prices Drop by Rs. 2,500 Today?

The shift to Rs. 478,000 for 24K gold is driven by two primary factors:

• International Bullion Trends: Global gold prices have faced consistent downward pressure over the last 48 hours, forcing local Sarafa associations to align the domestic price floor with international benchmarks.
• Market Correction Phase: After touching record highs recently, the market is undergoing a "correction." This cooling-off period, supported by a stable currency exchange, has allowed prices to drop significantly from the previous day's closing.

Investment Strategy: Is it the Right Time to Buy?

With gold now at Rs. 478,000, the market is providing one of the most accessible entry points we've seen in recent weeks. If you are buying 22K jewelry, it is a great time to visit your jeweler, but always remember to double-check "making charges" to ensure your total cost remains within budget.

Tip: Always demand a Solder-free Purity Certificate for your 24K bars. This ensures your asset retains its 100% resale value, regardless of daily market volatility.
