What Is Mirpur and Why Is It One of Pakistan’s Biggest Gold Markets?
Mirpur is the largest city of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) and one of the most economically active cities in the entire region. But what makes Mirpur truly unique — and what makes its gold market so important — is its extraordinary connection to the United Kingdom.
Mirpur is often called “Little England” or “Little Bradford” in Pakistan. Gold, often referred to as the yellow metal, has always been one of the most coveted resources around the globe — and in Pakistan, the fascination with gold is deeply interwoven into the cultural fabric, serving not only as a form of investment but also as an integral part of various traditions and ceremonies. Nowhere is this more visible than in Mirpur, where gold buying is tied directly to the city’s unique relationship with its overseas diaspora.
A very large number of British Pakistani families — perhaps the highest concentration anywhere in Pakistan — trace their roots to Mirpur. These families regularly send money back to Mirpur for three primary purposes: building houses, paying for weddings, and buying gold. This steady flow of British pounds converted into Pakistani rupees means Mirpur’s gold market sees consistent and high-volume demand year-round.
The sarafa bazar in Mirpur’s main commercial area is home to dozens of established jewellers, many of whom cater specifically to bridal sets and heavy jewellery for weddings. Understanding the gold rate in Mirpur today is not just a financial question — it is part of life for hundreds of thousands of Kashmiri families both in AJK and in the UK.
Gold Rate in Mirpur Compared to Other Cities
One of the most common questions asked by buyers in Mirpur — especially those receiving money from overseas relatives — is whether gold is cheaper in Mirpur than in Islamabad, Lahore, or Rawalpindi.
Gold is traded in all major cities of Pakistan — the gold rate in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, or Rawalpindi is usually the same, with only minor variations. Karachi’s Sarafa Bazaar sets the base rate daily, which is then adopted across Pakistan. Mirpur and all cities of Azad Kashmir follow the same national rate.
| City | 24K Per Tola Today (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Mirpur AJK | PKR 490,500 |
| Muzaffarabad AJK | PKR 490,500 |
| Islamabad | PKR 490,500 |
| Rawalpindi | PKR 490,500 |
| Lahore | PKR 490,500 |
| Karachi | PKR 490,500 |
| Faisalabad | PKR 490,500 |
| Multan | PKR 490,500 |
The answer is clear: the base gold rate is identical in Mirpur and every other city of Pakistan and AJK. The only difference is the making charge (labour charge) added by individual jewellers, which varies by shop and design. Always ask your Mirpur jeweller to show you the gold price and making charge separately on your receipt.
Understanding Gold Karats — Simple Explanation for Everyone
Think of the karat number as how much of the metal is actually gold — out of 24 parts total.
24 Karat (24K) — All 24 parts are gold. This is the purest form — 99.9% pure gold. It is the brightest, most yellow colour but very soft. It bends and scratches easily, so it is mostly used for gold bars, coins, and pure investment purposes. Most wearable jewellery in Pakistan is not made in 24K.
22 Karat (22K) — 22 out of 24 parts are gold (91.6% pure). The remaining 8.4% is usually silver or copper, which makes the gold harder and more wearable. This is the most popular choice for jewellery in Mirpur and across Pakistan — especially for bridal sets, necklaces, bangles, earrings, and rings. When someone in Mirpur buys a “gold set” for a wedding, it is almost always 22K.
21 Karat (21K) — 21 out of 24 parts are gold (87.5% pure). Slightly less yellow than 22K but still widely used. Common in Gulf-influenced jewellery styles. Stronger and more durable than higher purity gold.
18 Karat (18K) — 18 out of 24 parts are gold (75% pure). The most durable of all common purities. Preferred for jewellery that includes diamonds, precious stones, or very fine craftwork. Less gold content means lower price per gram, but the jewellery itself is stronger and more resistant to daily wear and tear.
What Is a Tola? (Easy Explanation)
If you have ever been confused when a jeweller in Mirpur says “ek tola sone ki qeemat” — here is everything you need to know in three simple points:
1 tola = 11.66 grams of gold.
That is the complete answer. Tola is a traditional South Asian unit of weight that has been used in Pakistan, India, and Azad Kashmir for centuries to measure precious metals. One tola is equal to 12 Masha, 12 Masha equals 96 Ratti, and 96 Ratti equals 11.664 grams.
It is still the standard unit used by every jeweller and sarafa dealer in Mirpur and across Pakistan. If you are buying gold by gram (as many younger or online buyers now do), simply multiply the per-gram rate by 11.66 to get the per-tola price — or use the table above.
Why Did Gold Reach These High Prices in 2026?
Gold prices in Pakistan and worldwide have climbed dramatically over the past few years. Here is why, explained in simple language:
Reason 1 — The world is worried. When people are uncertain about wars, economies, or political crises, they buy gold as a safe investment. This is happening globally right now, which pushes gold prices up everywhere.
Reason 2 — The rupee has weakened. In Pakistan, the fascination with gold is deeply interwoven into the cultural fabric — and because international gold is priced in US dollars, any weakening of the Pakistani rupee against the dollar directly pushes local gold prices higher. When the dollar strengthens, gold in PKR becomes more expensive automatically.
Reason 3 — Central banks are buying gold. The central banks of China, India, Russia, Turkey, and many other countries have been buying enormous amounts of gold over the past two years — adding to global demand and pushing prices up.
Reason 4 — Inflation hedge in Pakistan. As everyday things in Pakistan get more expensive — groceries, electricity, petrol, school fees — more Pakistani families buy gold to protect their savings from losing value. This extra demand from within Pakistan also pushes local prices up.
Gold Rate in Mirpur — Silver Rate Today Too
Many families in Mirpur check silver rates alongside gold — particularly for gifting, smaller jewellery pieces, and utensils.
| Silver | Today’s Price (PKR) |
|---|---|
| 24K Silver Per Tola | PKR 7,200 |
| 24K Silver Per Gram | PKR 617 |
| 24K Silver Per 10 Gram | PKR 6,170 |
Where to Buy Gold in Mirpur Azad Kashmir
Mirpur has a well-established gold market. The main areas to buy gold in Mirpur include:
Main Bazar Mirpur (صرافہ بازار) — The central gold and jewellery market in Mirpur city is the most established area, with dozens of jewellers operating side by side. Competition between jewellers in this area keeps prices competitive and gives buyers the leverage to negotiate on making charges. This is the best place for bridal sets, heavy jewellery, and standard gold purchases.
City Chowk and Raja Bazar area — Several jewellers in these high-footfall commercial areas cater to everyday buyers and serve families picking up smaller pieces like rings, earrings, and children’s gold bangles.
Mall Road and New Mirpur areas — More modern jewellery shops with fixed prices, proper receipts, and display-cased jewellery are found in the newer commercial areas of Mirpur. These shops often cater to overseas buyers visiting from the UK.
Tips for buying gold safely in Mirpur:
Always ask for a proper receipt showing the weight in grams, the karat purity, the gold price per gram used, and the making charge listed separately — not combined into one total. Ask to see the purity hallmark stamped on the jewellery. Verify today’s rate before entering any shop by checking Khita.com.pk gold rate or gold.pk so you know the correct base price before you start negotiating the making charge.
How to Sell Gold in Mirpur AJK — Step by Step
If you want to sell old jewellery, gold coins, or bars in Mirpur, follow these steps to get the best price:
Step 1: Check today’s gold rate on Khita.com.pk or Hamariweb gold rate before leaving home so you know the correct price.
Step 2: Visit at least two or three jewellers in the Mirpur sarafa bazar and get separate quotes. Do not sell to the first jeweller you visit.
Step 3: Know the karat of what you are selling. Old Pakistani jewellery is almost always 22K. The jeweller should weigh it on a calibrated scale in front of you and calculate based on the current 22K per gram rate.
Step 4: Expect to receive 90% to 95% of the current market price for old jewellery. The small deduction covers the jeweller’s cost of melting and refining. This is standard practice at every sarafa in Pakistan.
Step 5: Get a written receipt of the transaction showing the weight, karat, price per gram used, and total amount paid.
Gold as Investment for Mirpur and Overseas Kashmiri Families
Gold has always been the number one investment choice for Mirpur families — both those living locally in AJK and those living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the Middle East who send money back.
For overseas Kashmiri families, gold bought in Mirpur serves three purposes simultaneously: it is a cultural tradition for weddings and celebrations, a physical store of wealth that holds value regardless of currency fluctuations, and a way to deploy remittance money into an asset that will not depreciate.
Gold serves not only as a form of investment but also as an integral part of various traditions and ceremonies in Pakistan — and in Mirpur, this cultural dimension is particularly strong given the city’s deep-rooted wedding traditions and large diaspora community.
For overseas Pakistanis sending money for gold purchases in Mirpur: Using the Roshan Digital Account for overseas Pakistanis is one of the best ways to transfer money to Pakistan at official exchange rates, avoiding the hawala market and ensuring your money arrives safely before the purchase.
Smart ways to invest in gold in Mirpur in 2026:
Physical gold bars and coins are the purest investment — no making charges, easy to sell back at full market price. Available from established sarafa dealers in Mirpur’s main bazar.
Jewellery is the most popular choice for Pakistani families — it serves the dual purpose of being worn at occasions and holding gold’s investment value. Making charges reduce the investment efficiency slightly but the cultural and practical value makes it worthwhile for most families.
Incremental buying — rather than buying one large gold set all at once, consider buying one or two pieces per month over 12 months. This spreads your purchase across different price points, smoothing out the impact of daily price swings. Someone who bought one gram of gold per month throughout 2025 is sitting on a very comfortable gain today.

According to the World Gold Council, gold has delivered positive long-term returns in Pakistani rupees in every decade on record — making it one of the most reliable long-term stores of value for Pakistani and Kashmiri investors.
Is This a Good Time to Buy Gold in Mirpur in 2026?
This is the question every buyer asks — and there is no single perfect answer. But here are the key points to help you decide:
If you are buying for a wedding coming in the next 3 to 6 months: Buy now or in small increments over the coming weeks. Waiting for a lower price is risky because gold has shown a consistent upward trend over the past year. Buying in small amounts every few weeks (dollar-cost averaging) protects you from buying everything at a peak.
If you are buying purely for investment: Gold at current levels is still considered a strong long-term hold by most analysts. As of today, 1 tola of 24-karat gold in Pakistan is priced at approximately PKR 492,000. Rates may vary slightly depending on the city and jeweller. Anyone who bought at PKR 323,600 a year ago has already made a 51% gain. Short-term dips are possible but the long-term trend remains upward given global uncertainty and a structurally weak rupee.
If you are an overseas Kashmiri planning to buy during your next visit to Mirpur: Keep watching the daily rate on Khita.com.pk and try to time your purchase during weeks when the rate has dipped slightly from its recent high. Even a PKR 5,000 to 10,000 per tola saving matters on a multi-tola purchase.
The single most important advice: Never buy gold in Mirpur — or anywhere in Pakistan — without checking today’s rate first. Knowing the correct rate before entering a shop means you negotiate on making charges only, not on the gold price itself.
