Gold prices in Karachi eased slightly on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, with 24-karat gold trading at Rs453,300 per tola (Rs388,640 per 10 grams) — a modest Rs1,400 pullback from Monday’s Rs454,700 per tola, according to live rate trackers tracking Karachi’s daily bullion market. The dip mirrors a small cooling in international gold prices overnight, after the metal spent much of September trading in a choppy range near record territory.
Today’s rate was confirmed by two independently updating live-rate trackers — UrduPoint and GoldUpdate.pk — both showing the identical Rs453,300/tola figure on their September 22 pages, giving the reading a high degree of confidence. A handful of other sites were still displaying Monday’s cached rate of roughly Rs454,700-454,800/tola, and one outlier site quoted Rs462,200/tola dated a day old; both were excluded as stale rather than treated as today’s genuine market move.
| Metal / Purity | Rate per Tola | Rate per 10 Grams |
|---|---|---|
| 24K Gold | Rs 453,300 | Rs 388,640 |
| 22K Gold | Rs 415,525 | Rs 356,253 |
| 21K Gold | Rs 396,638 | Rs 340,060 |
| 18K Gold | Rs 339,975 | Rs 291,480 |
| Silver | Rs 6,929 | Rs 5,941 |
| International Gold | ~$4,340 – $4,348 per ounce | |
Internationally, gold was little changed to mildly softer, hovering in the $4,340-$4,348 per ounce range, according to Kitco and TradingEconomics pricing data — both trackers agreed the move was small, under one percent, even if they differed slightly on the exact direction. The metal remains well below the roughly $5,600/oz record high it touched in January 2026, and has been trading choppily through September as markets weigh shifting Federal Reserve rate-path expectations following the central bank’s September 16 decision. Softer producer-price data out of the US earlier in the month had pushed the odds of a further near-term rate hike down to roughly a third, a dynamic that tends to support gold since lower rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding a non-yielding asset — but the metal has struggled to sustain a firm break higher, leaving it to drift within a narrow band.
The Pakistani rupee held broadly steady against the US dollar in interbank trading, at roughly Rs277 to the dollar, so today’s small domestic dip tracked the international pullback almost one-for-one rather than reflecting any currency move. Silver, meanwhile, was quoted at Rs6,929 per tola (Rs5,941 per 10 grams) — pricing for the metal has been noisier than gold this week, with several trackers showing figures 3-5% apart, so today’s reading leans on the most recently updated same-day source available.
