Enter the weight and karat of a piece to estimate its price at today’s gold rate. Add making charges to see what the finished jewellery would cost.
How the price of gold jewellery is calculated
- Gold value = weight × today’s rate for that karat.
- Making charges = labour and design, quoted as a percentage, a rate per tola, or a fixed amount.
- Stones (if any) are priced separately.
Weight units used in Pakistan
| Unit | In grams | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 tola | 11.664 g | Standard unit for gold in Pakistan |
| 1 masha | 0.972 g | 12 masha = 1 tola |
| 1 ratti | 0.1215 g | 8 ratti = 1 masha |
| 10 grams | 10 g | ≈ 0.857 tola |
How do I convert grams to tola?
Divide the grams by 11.664. For example, 20 grams ÷ 11.664 = 1.71 tola.
Why is my calculated price lower than the shop price?
Usually because of making charges, stones, or a small difference between the international rate and the local Sarafa rate on the day.
