Silver pricing and purity in Pakistan
Live silver rate per tola vs per gram
Most Pakistani boards quote chandi per tola. Convert to grams when buying smaller pieces: one tola is conventionally treated like gold’s tola unit in local trade. Our table lists per tola, 10 gram, gram, and ounce so you can match how your dealer prices the metal.
Fine silver (999) versus sterling (925)
Fine silver (999) is about 99.9% pure and trades closest to international benchmarks per gram. Sterling (925) is 92.5% silver with alloys for hardness. Effective rupee value per gram differs—confirm the stamp on your invoice.
Karachi as the reference market
Wholesale silver prices are commonly referenced from Karachi Sarafa Market. Other cities follow within hours; local spreads still apply at retail counters.
Before you buy or sell
Compare our live bidding and asking snapshot before visiting a dealer. Coins and bars usually track spot more transparently than decorative pieces with high labour content. Factor storage and tarnish into any large holding.
