18K Gold Price in Pakistan Today
The 18k gold price in Pakistan today is shown live at the top of this page, per gram in PKR, converted from the international spot market and refreshed on every visit. Below it you will find the same rate per tola and per troy ounce, plus a 30-day history table so you can judge whether today is a fair day to buy.
18k gold is 750 fine: three quarters gold, one quarter alloy, and the hardest-wearing of the common karats. It is the standard for diamond and gemstone settings, European and American designer jewellery, and watches, because its strength grips stones securely and resists scratches far better than 21k or 22k. In Pakistan, 18k prices are tracked most closely in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Pakistan applies no VAT to gold, so the counter price is the metal rate plus making charges only. Making charges are the one cost that varies shop to shop, so compare them on the same design before you pay.

How the 18K Rate in Pakistan Is Calculated
Every karat price starts from the 24k spot rate. The 18k gram price is the 24k price multiplied by 18/24 (750 fineness), converted into PKR at the rate Pakistan uses for gold pricing. Jewellers then add making charges per design and any applicable tax. That is why the metal rate is identical across honest shops on the same day, and why quotes differ only in the extras.
Is 18K Gold a Good Buy in Pakistan?
Choose 18k for diamond settings and daily-wear designer pieces. For pure value per gram it always trails 21k and 22k, so it is a jewellery choice, not an investment one. Whatever you buy, insist on the stamped hallmark (750 for 18k) and an itemised invoice showing weight, karat and making charges separately.
