About the Silver Market in Pakistan
Silver — chandi — has been a store of value in South Asia for generations. It is more accessible than gold, which makes it the natural starting point for small savers, gift-givers and anyone who wants to hold a precious metal without a large upfront cost. In Pakistan, silver is quoted per tola in the local Sarafa markets, and the price you see is the international silver rate translated into rupees.
Because silver is both a precious and an industrial metal, its price can move more sharply than gold. That volatility is worth understanding before you buy. Our city pages, charts and calculators are designed to give you the full picture — today's number, the recent trend, and what your own holding is worth — without the hype.
