KARACHI, April 23, 2026 — Silver prices in Pakistan edged higher on Thursday, with the precious metal trading at Rs. 8,162 per tola in major Sarafa markets, supported by firm international cues and steady domestic demand.
According to market updates from Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad bullion exchanges, silver gained ground after international spot prices held near $78 per troy ounce. The local currency’s relative stability against the US dollar helped contain volatility in rupee-denominated rates.

Rates for pure 999-fine silver remained broadly uniform across major cities, with minor variations of Rs. 20-40 per tola observed in Peshawar and Quetta due to regional logistics and demand patterns
Market Drivers Behind the Move
Analysts cite three key factors supporting today’s uptick:
- Global Industrial Demand: Silver’s critical role in solar panels, EV components, and electronics continues to underpin long-term demand fundamentals.
- Safe-Haven Flows: Ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have kept precious metals in focus among regional investors.
- Local Investment Interest: Retail buyers are accumulating silver as an affordable inflation hedge, with prices still well below gold’s Rs. 495,500 per tola

Traders expect silver to consolidate between Rs. 8,100–8,300 per tola in the coming sessions, pending fresh cues from US economic data and PKR-USD movements. Physical demand ahead of the South Asian wedding season could provide additional support.
“Silver remains an attractive option for middle-income savers seeking tangible assets,” said a Lahore-based bullion dealer. “But buyers should verify purity and compare dealer premiums before transacting.”
Tips for Buyers
- Always request hallmark certification (999 fineness) for purity assurance
- Compare rates across at least three dealers to secure fair pricing
- Store physical holdings securely; bank lockers are recommended for larger quantities
- Track international silver prices via trusted portals like FOREX.pk for broader market context

Jewelry purchases will carry additional making charges (typically 10–25%) plus applicable taxes, so investment-focused buyers are generally advised to opt for bars or coins with lower premiums
