1. Global Gold Prices (International Market Impact)

Pakistan’s gold rates are directly linked with:

• International bullion market
• Ounce price movement
• Global demand for gold
• Central bank gold reserves

Whenever global prices rise, Pakistan’s gold rate increases too.

2. USD to PKR Exchange Rate

Gold is traded internationally in US dollars. Therefore:

• If the dollar strengthens, gold prices in Pakistan increase.
• If the rupee gains, gold prices drop.

The exchange rate plays a major role in daily fluctuations.

3. Local Market Demand

Wedding season, festival season, and investor behavior affect:

• Gold jewellery demand
• Gold bar buying
• Gold saving schemes

High local demand pushes the price up.

4. Inflation & Economic Uncertainty

In times of:

• Inflation
• Political instability
• Economic crisis

People shift their money into gold, increasing its demand — and price.

5. Government Import Policies

Gold imports in Pakistan are sensitive because:

• Duties and taxes affect final price
• Restricted imports reduce supply
• Limited supply increases the price

Gold Price Trends in Pakistan (Recent Months Overview)

Here is how gold behaved during the previous months:
