From 2020 to 2025, gold didn’t just rise in Pakistan. It redefined safety.

In early 2020, gold traded near Rs. 88,000 per tola. Fast forward to 2025, and prices touched Rs. 350,000–360,000 per tola. That’s nearly a 4x increase in five years.

This wasn’t hype. It was survival economics.

First came COVID-19. Then inflation surged. By 2023, prices of daily essentials jumped at record speed. At the same time, the Pakistani rupee kept falling. Each dip in the rupee quietly pushed gold higher.

Gold did what cash couldn’t.

While bank savings lost value and property slowed under high interest rates, gold stayed liquid, portable, and trusted. Investors didn’t need complex strategies. They just needed protection.

Global forces helped, too. Wars, recession fears, and massive central-bank gold buying pushed international prices higher. When global gold rose, and the rupee weakened together, Pakistan saw a double boost.

By early 2025, gold briefly crossed Rs. 357,000 per tola, shocking even long-time traders. Yet demand didn’t collapse. People adjusted. Smaller purchases replaced heavy jewellery. Bars and coins became popular.

What made this cycle different?

Gold wasn’t treated as luxury. It became a financial shield.

Families used it to protect savings. Overseas Pakistanis used it to hedge currency risk. Even cautious investors saw gold outperform stocks, real estate, and fixed income during the most unstable years.

The lesson from 2020–2025 is simple:

When confidence breaks, gold doesn’t panic.
It waits, and quietly grows.

Understanding Gold Measurements and Price Fluctuations

Do you want to know about gold measurements and why its price has changed? Let’s break it down!

How Many Grams in a Tola of Gold?

In Pakistan, one ton of gold is equivalent to 11.667 grams. This traditional measurement is used in South Asia to buy or sell gold.

For instance, if you have 10 tola and want to convert it to grams.

In other words, how many grams are in 10 tolas of gold? The answer you get by multiplying 10 tolas by 11.667 (that one tola has 11.667) equals 116.67 grams.

On the other hand, if you have 70 grams of gold and want to convert it to tolas, you can do so by dividing 70 grams by 11.667, which equals approximately six tolas.

How Many Tolas in an Ounce of Gold?

One ounce of gold is equal to 2.43 tolas. This conversion is essential when comparing global gold prices with local measurements.

How Many Grams in an Ounce of Gold?

One ounce of gold is 28.35081 grams. This is the international standard for measuring and trading gold worldwide.

What Causes Gold Price Fluctuations?

Gold is more valued for Two Key Reasons:

  • Investors seek out gold for its potential to grow in value over time.
  • Jewellers prize gold. So, its beauty, durability, and versatility create stunning pieces. Several factors can influence gold prices. Here are some key drivers:
  • Interest Rates: Higher interest rates can make gold less appealing, while lower rates may boost attractiveness.
  • Monetary Policy: Central bank decisions can impact gold demand.
  • Geopolitics: Global tensions can drive people toward gold as a safe-haven asset.
  • Currency Markets: A stronger U.S. Dollar may reduce gold prices, while a weaker dollar boosts gold’s value
  • Inflation/Deflation: Inflation boosts demand for gold, while deflation can have the opposite effect.
  • Investment & Jewellery Demand: Strong demand for gold as an investment or for jewellery, especially in countries like Pakistan, can drive up prices.

Gold is traded in U.S. dollars, so shifts in the U.S. Dollar Index significantly determine daily gold prices. Foreign investors may find gold pricier as the dollar value increases, causing the price to drop. A weakening dollar usually boosts gold prices.

Interest Rates Matter: When interest rates rise, holding gold can seem less attractive since it doesn’t generate income like bonds or dividends. However, when rates fall, gold can shine as a safe store of value.

Understanding these factors will help you grasp the movements in gold prices and make informed decisions about buying or selling.
