Pakistan’s bullion market recorded a second consecutive session of gains on Saturday, as gold prices continued to climb across all categories, building on Friday’s strong rebound and pushing domestic rates further away from the multi-month lows recorded earlier in the week as global markets maintained their positive momentum.
According to the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association, the price of 24-karat gold per tola rose by Rs. 4,370, settling at Rs. 444,336.

Similarly, the rate of 24-karat gold per 10 grams climbed by Rs. 3,933, closing at Rs. 379,880, while 22-karat gold per 10 grams also advanced by Rs. 3,570 to settle at Rs. 348,493.
Gold rates in Pakistan on Saturday, June 13, 2026:
- Gold, 24K per tola: Rs. 444,336 (+4,370)
- Gold, 24K per 10 grams: Rs. 379,880 (+3,933)
- Gold, 22K per 10 grams: Rs. 348,493 (+3,570)
Meanwhile, international gold prices also continued their upward momentum, rising by $43.70 to settle at $4,219 per ounce as global markets extended Friday’s recovery and buying interest remained firm.
The continued strength in global bullion markets was swiftly reflected in domestic prices, as investors maintained their buying activity and confidence continued to return following the brutal sell-off of the preceding week.
With momentum firmly on the side of buyers for a second straight session, gold prices advanced steadily across all categories throughout Saturday’s trading.
Recovery Gains Momentum as Prices Post Back-to-Back Gains
Saturday’s advance follows Friday’s strong rebound of Rs. 7,250 per tola, which had snapped a devastating run of consecutive losses and delivered the most significant single-session recovery in several weeks.

Together, the two sessions have now added Rs. 11,620 per tola back to domestic gold prices, a meaningful recovery, though still only a partial retracement of the losses incurred earlier in the week.
The scale of the preceding correction had been extraordinary. Wednesday had seen gold collapse by Rs. 12,627 per tola, Thursday had extended losses by a further Rs. 9,720 per tola, and before that, Saturday June 6 and Monday June 8 had added further sharp declines.
The cumulative damage over that stretch had pushed domestic gold prices to their lowest levels in many months, making the back-to-back recovery sessions over Friday and Saturday all the more encouraging.
Closing In on the Key Rs. 450,000 Mark
At Rs. 444,336 per tola, domestic gold prices are now within striking distance of the key Rs. 450,000 mark, the level that was breached so decisively during Wednesday’s collapse and which represents the first major psychological hurdle for any sustained recovery.

Whether buyers have the momentum to push through that level in the coming sessions will be a crucial test for the market.
Prices nonetheless remain well below the record highs recorded earlier in the year. With international gold now trading at $4,219 per ounce following Saturday’s gains, market analysts will be watching closely whether this two-session recovery can develop into a more sustained uptrend or whether selling pressure returns as prices approach key resistance levels.
Market watchers will be monitoring global developments carefully heading into next week to assess whether the current recovery has genuine legs or whether it remains vulnerable to a fresh reversal.
With global economic uncertainty continuing to shape investor sentiment, gold remains a closely watched and highly sensitive asset in both domestic and international markets.
