Gold Price Per Tola in Saudi Arabia Today
The gold price per tola in Saudi Arabia today is shown live at the top of this page in SAR, for 24k first and for 22k, 21k and 18k below it. It is calculated from the same live per-gram spot rate as the rest of KaratIndex, multiplied by the exact tola weight of 11.664 grams.
One tola is exactly 11.664 grams. It is the trading unit of the sarafa bazaars of Pakistan and India, and the unit Gulf jewellers reach for when South Asian customers buy bars, biscuits and bridal sets by weight. In Saudi Arabia, per-tola quotes matter most in Riyadh, Jeddah, Mecca, and gold jewellery in Saudi Arabia carries 15% tax where it applies (investment-grade treatment differs; the country guide explains the current rules), on top of the metal rate and making charges.

How the Per-Tola Price Is Calculated
Take the live 24k price per gram in SAR and multiply by 11.664. For other karats, apply the purity first (22k is 22/24 of the 24k price, 21k is 21/24, 18k is 18/24) and then multiply by the unit weight. Shops add making charges on jewellery, but bullion priced per tola should track the figure on this page closely.
Per Tola or Per Gram: Which Should You Compare?
They are the same metal at the same rate; the unit is only a lens. Use the per-tola price when that is how your market quotes (and how you will resell), and the per-gram price when comparing against international charts. What actually changes your cost is the making charge and any premium over spot, so compare those, not the unit.
