Silver prices also witnessed an upward trend. The rate for 24-karat silver per tola increased by Rs177, bringing the new price to Rs5,422.
The local spike aligns with global market movement, where international gold prices also saw a notable jump. In the global market, gold became $79 more expensive per ounce, reaching $4,092.
Market analysts attribute the rise to heightened international demand and fluctuations in global economic indicators, which continue to influence local bullion rates.
