Gold rate in Karachi today
On 9 November 2026, the gold rate in Karachi is Rs 0 per tola for 24K and Rs 0 per tola for 22K, which is Rs 0 per gram. Karachi trades in Sarafa Bazaar, Bolton Market (Kharadar), and rates are published locally by the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association (APSGJA). This is the market that sets the national benchmark.
The Karachi market
Karachi is not just another city rate — it is the rate. The Sarafa Bazaar around Bolton Market and Kharadar is where the daily Pakistani gold price is set, and the figure the APSGJA announces from Karachi is the number every other city board copies within the hour.
That is a consequence of trade geography. Gold enters Pakistan overwhelmingly through Karachi, so importers, wholesalers and the largest bullion dealers all sit within a few streets of each other. Price discovery happens where the metal lands, and everything upcountry is that price plus the cost of moving it.
Karachi's own retail market is unusually wide. Kharadar and Bolton Market quote close to the board because they are wholesale-adjacent, while Tariq Road, Gulshan and Clifton showrooms carry higher making charges for the same 22K metal.
Buying in Karachi
In Karachi the metal price is rarely the negotiation — making charges (banwai) are. Ask for the rate, the karat, the weight and the making charge as four separate numbers before anything is weighed, and ask whether the making charge is per tola or a percentage.

Karachi carries the Karachi benchmark because no verified local quote is held for this board; shop quotes typically run Rs 100–500 per tola above it. Silver is quoted per tola and per gram from the same benchmark session.

Frequently asked questions
Why is the Karachi gold rate used as Pakistan's benchmark?
Because most imported gold clears through Karachi and the largest bullion wholesalers trade in Sarafa Bazaar around Bolton Market. The APSGJA announces the rate from there and other city associations follow it.
Where is Sarafa Bazaar in Karachi?
The main gold market is in the Kharadar and Bolton Market area of old Karachi, with large retail concentrations on Tariq Road and in Gulshan-e-Iqbal and Clifton.
Is gold cheaper in Kharadar than in Tariq Road showrooms?
The metal rate is the same board rate. Kharadar is usually cheaper overall because making charges near the wholesale market are lower than in large branded showrooms.
What time does the Karachi gold rate update?
The board is normally posted mid-morning on working days after international spot and the open-market dollar rate settle, with a revision later in the day if the rupee or spot moves sharply.
