Gold prices in Pakistan surged on Thursday, with the per tola rate gaining Rs3,600 in a session that mirrored broader international market strength.
The jump marks a continuation of the upward momentum that has seen local prices climb sharply over the past two days, reversing a recent slide that had seen prices fall by Rs5,200 per tola earlier in the week.
The local premium is tracking global gains, as international benchmarks have rallied in recent sessions.
This repricing reflects sustained buying interest in precious metals, with local dealers adjusting rates to align with the stronger global sentiment.
The move adds to a broader trend of volatility in the Pakistani gold market, where prices have swung significantly in response to international cues.
The surge follows a period of instability, with prices having fallen sharply just days prior.
The rapid reversal highlights the sensitivity of the local market to global flows and sentiment shifts.
