ISLAMABAD — Gold prices in Islamabad remained elevated on Sunday, February 8, 2026, with 24-karat gold trading at Rs518,500 per tola, according to rates issued by the Islamabad Jewelers Association. The update reflects continued volatility in the local bullion market amid fluctuations in international gold prices and ongoing currency pressures.
The latest prices are closely watched by investors, jewellers, and consumers, as gold remains a key hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty in Pakistan. Movements in global markets are quickly mirrored locally, making domestic gold rates highly sensitive and rarely stable for extended periods.

Jewellers say the volatility has affected both retail buying and investment decisions, particularly as consumers weigh purchases ahead of seasonal demand for gold jewellery and savings instruments.
