Gold falls Rs3,000 per tola in Pakistan as global prices decline
Gold in Pakistan fell Rs3,000 per tola to Rs438,636 on Thursday, tracking a $30 decline in the international rate to $4,161 an ounce, according to the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association.

Gold prices in Pakistan declined on Thursday in line with losses in the international market, with the price per tola reaching Rs438,636 after a fall of Rs3,000 during the day, according to rates shared by the All-Pakistan Gems and Jewellers Sarafa Association (APGJSA).

The association said 10-gram gold was sold at Rs376,059, a decline of Rs2,572 on the day.

The move partly unwinds the previous session's gain. On Wednesday, the gold price per tola reached Rs441,636 after a gain of Rs4,300 during the day. Local bullion rates track movements in the international market, where the rate of gold declined by $30 to reach $4,161 per ounce.

Meanwhile, the price of silver also decreased by Rs50 to reach Rs6,528 per tola, according to the association's rates.
