In the local market, the price of gold per tola dropped Rs2,245 to settle at Rs383,055.

Interactive Commodities Director Adnan Agar stated that the gold market remained uncertain, trading between $3,370 and $3,400, with its direction largely dependent on developments in the Israel-Iran conflict. If the war escalates with involvement of the US, gold prices are likely to surge. However, if tensions ease and peace talks progress, prices may stay range bound or decline. The upcoming US monetary policy decision could also influence prices, though any impact is expected to be limited if the outcome matches market expectations, Agar said.
