Gold Tola Calculator

Estimate what gold is worth in rupees by weight and purity, using the international gold price and the current USD/PKR rate.

This is an estimate, not a market rate. Local sarafa and jewellers' prices include premiums, taxes and making charges, and can differ from the figures below. Always confirm with your jeweller before buying or selling.

Weight in grams / tola

Value = weight in grams × purity (karat ÷ 24) × price per gram of 24K gold. Making charges are an optional percentage added on top.

Gold weight units used in Pakistan

Unit	Grams	Relationship
1 tola	11.6638	12 masha
1 masha	0.9720	8 ratti
1 ratti	0.1215	1/96 tola
1 troy ounce	31.1035	About 2.67 tola (international price unit)

How this estimate is built

We take the USD price of one troy ounce of gold. We derive it from the price of PAX Gold (PAXG), a token backed by one fine troy ounce of gold, as reported by Coinpaprika.
We divide by 31.1035 to get USD per gram, then multiply by the USD/PKR mid-market rate from Exchange Rate API.
We scale by purity: 22K is 22/24 of 24K, 21K is 21/24, and so on.

Because the starting point is an international price, it follows global gold, not the local market. Domestic prices can differ because of import premiums, duties, dealer margins and day-to-day supply.

Zakat nisab reference for gold

The gold nisab is commonly taken as 7.5 tola, about 87.48 grams. At the estimate above, 7.5 tola of 24K gold is worth about Rs. 3,155,775. Scholars and institutions differ on whether to use the gold or silver nisab and how to treat jewellery and other assets, so confirm with a qualified scholar.

Why a shop's price differs from the calculator

Pakistani bullion and jewellery markets publish daily rates, but the price you pay or receive is not just the international price converted to rupees. Four things commonly separate the two.

Purity

Karat measures purity out of 24. 24K is the benchmark for bars and coins. 22K is 22/24 (about 91.7%) of that value and is the usual standard for bridal jewellery. 21K and 18K are 87.5% and 75%. The calculator multiplies the 24K price by these fractions, but a piece's real fineness depends on how it was made, so check the hallmark or have it assayed.

Making charges

Jewellers charge for labour on top of the gold content, often per gram or as a percentage. These are usually not recovered when you sell, so a piece's resale value is closer to its gold content than its purchase price.

Exchange-rate spread

This calculator converts using one mid-market USD/PKR rate. When the open-market rate differs from the interbank rate, local gold prices can follow the open-market figure, so the shop quote may be higher or lower than the estimate.

Buying versus selling

A seller's buy-back price is lower than the sell price, and used gold is often valued after melting or testing, with a deduction for impurities or wastage. Get quotes from more than one jeweller, and ask whether a quote is for the gold alone or includes making charges.
