Chandi ka Rate Today & 1 Tola Silver Ring Price in Pakistan
Chandi ka Rate Today & 1 Tola Silver Ring Price in Pakistan
If you searched for chandi ka rate, you want a number, not a lecture — so the table is right below. But keep one thing in mind as you read it: the tola rate is the price of the metal, not the price of a finished ring or chain. The gap between the two is the making charge — the banwai — and understanding that gap is the difference between paying a fair price and overpaying. This page gives you both: today's rate, and the honest math jewellers use on top of it — starting with the real 1 tola silver ring price in Pakistan.
Silver Rate Today in Pakistan
Rates updated: Monday, 21 July 2026. These are indicative market rates for the open saraafa market, refreshed weekly. Rates vary slightly by city — expect a difference of roughly Rs 100–200 per tola between Karachi, Lahore and smaller markets on any given day.
| Weight | Pure chandi (999) | Sterling silver (925) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 tola (11.664 g) | Rs 6,000 | Rs 5,550 |
| 10 gram | Rs 5,145 | Rs 4,760 |
| 1 gram | Rs 515 | Rs 476 |
One tola is 11.664 grams — the traditional weight unit every Pakistani jeweller still quotes in. The 925 column is simply 92.5% of the pure rate, because sterling silver is 92.5% silver by weight. More on why that matters below.
1 Tola Silver Ring Price in Pakistan: The Simple Math
Every honest jeweller in Pakistan prices a silver piece the same way:
Final price = (weight in grams × per-gram rate) + making charges (banwai) + stone, setting and finish
The metal is the cheap part. The banwai covers the karigar's hours — melting, forming, filing, polishing — and it does not scale down with weight the way metal does. A tiny ring takes almost as much handwork as a large one. That is why light pieces feel "expensive per gram" and heavy pieces feel closer to the metal rate. Let's run the three questions people actually search for.
What does a 1 tola silver ring cost?
A 1-tola ring is a substantial piece — almost always a men's ring. At today's 925 rate, the metal alone is about Rs 5,550. Add a market-typical making charge of Rs 2,000–5,000 for hand-made work, and a plain 1-tola chandi ring lands around Rs 7,500–10,500 in the open market — before any stone, engraving or rhodium plating. If someone quotes you Rs 6,000 for a "1 tola hand-made ring", the weight, the purity, or the handwork is not what they claim. Our own men's silver rings start at Rs 12,900 (the Imperial Light) — above the plain-market range because you are paying for design, stone-setting and a rhodium finish, and we would rather show you that math than hide it.
What does a 5 gram silver ring cost?
Five grams is the classic women's ring weight. Metal at today's 925 rate: 5 × Rs 476 = about Rs 2,380. With a fair making charge of Rs 1,500–4,000, a plain 5-gram ring runs Rs 4,000–6,500 in the market. For comparison from our own shelf: our silver rings start at Rs 5,200 for The Stellar Cross Onyx Ring — a hand-set natural onyx in 925 — and Rs 6,200 gets you the Ruby Reign Ring with a natural ruby. When a stone-set, hand-finished ring costs about the same as a plain one, the making charge is doing honest work.
What does a 1 tola silver chain cost?
Same formula. Metal for one tola of 925: about Rs 5,550. Chain-making charges run Rs 2,500–6,000 depending on whether it is machine-drawn or hand-linked, so a plain 1-tola chandi chain costs roughly Rs 8,000–11,500 in the market. Be aware that most men's chains worth wearing daily weigh more than one tola — a serious piece like our Maveric Cuban Chain (Rs 78,000) weighs several tolas of solid 925 with fully hand-finished links, which is exactly where the price comes from. Browse the full chain and necklace collection to compare weights and prices side by side.
And a 1 gram silver ring?
Here is the honest answer nobody gives: one gram of 925 silver is worth about Rs 476 today. Any "1 gram silver ring" you see advertised is almost entirely making charge — and a ring that light is usually a child's ring or a very thin band that will bend in normal wear. If your budget is under Rs 5,000, a better use of it is a slightly heavier plain band or a small pendant (ours start at Rs 2,999) than an ultra-light ring.
Why 925 and Pure Chandi Have Different Rates
Khaalis chandi — pure 999 silver — is too soft for jewellery. A pure silver ring scratches, bends and loses its shape within weeks of daily wear. So jewellers worldwide alloy it: 92.5% silver plus 7.5% copper gives you sterling silver, hard enough to hold a stone and a polish for years. That is the "925" stamped inside every genuine piece.
The pricing consequence is simple: 925 metal is worth 92.5% of the pure rate, gram for gram. Today that means Rs 476 per gram instead of Rs 515. When a jeweller quotes you the pure tola rate for a sterling piece, that small gap quietly becomes extra margin.

Weight-to-Price Reference: From Metal Rate to Finished Piece
This table connects today's rate to what finished jewellery actually costs. Metal value uses the 925 rate above; the Zanvari column is real, current store pricing — the starting price of each collection today, not a teaser.
| Piece | Typical weight | Metal value today (925) | Zanvari starts at |
|---|---|---|---|
| Women's ring | 3–5 g | Rs 1,430–2,380 | Rs 5,200 |
| Men's ring | 6–12 g (up to 1 tola) | Rs 2,860–5,710 | Rs 12,900 |
| Pendant | 2–4 g | Rs 950–1,900 | Rs 2,999 |
| Chain | 1–2 tola (12–24 g) | Rs 5,550–11,100 | Rs 72,000 (heavy, solid 925) |
| Bracelet / bangle | 8–15 g | Rs 3,810–7,140 | Rs 12,500 |
| Payal / anklet | 10–15 g | Rs 4,760–7,140 | Rs 18,900 |
Why do our prices sit above raw metal value? Because raw metal is not what you wear. Every Zanvari piece is handcrafted in Karachi by our karigars in solid 925, most carry a natural stone or moissanite, and rings are rhodium-plated so they keep their shine — see our silver care guide for how long that lasts and how to maintain it. We publish the metal math precisely so you can judge our making charge for yourself. That is the same honest-ledger approach as our moissanite ring price guide.
Chandi vs Sona: Why Silver Is the Smart Buy in 2026
Gold crossed Rs 560,000 per tola in 2026. At today's rates, one tola of sona buys you more than ninety tolas of chandi. That single ratio explains why so many buyers — grooms, gift-givers, everyday wearers — have moved to silver: a complete, hand-made, stone-set 925 piece costs less than 2% of a comparable gold one, and nobody at the dawat can tell the difference from across the table. We wrote up the full picture in why smart buyers are choosing silver in 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 1 tola silver ring price in Pakistan today?
At today's rate the metal in a 1-tola (11.664 g) sterling silver ring is worth about Rs 5,550. With market-typical making charges of Rs 2,000–5,000, a plain hand-made 1-tola chandi ring costs roughly Rs 7,500–10,500. Designer or stone-set pieces cost more — our men's rings start at Rs 12,900.
What is the 1 gram silver ring price in Pakistan?
One gram of 925 silver is worth about Rs 476 at today's rate, so any 1-gram ring's price is almost entirely making charges. Rings that light are usually children's rings or very thin bands that bend easily — for the same budget, a small pendant or a heavier plain band is better value.
What is the 5 gram silver ring price in Pakistan?
Metal value is about Rs 2,380 at today's 925 rate. With fair making charges, a plain 5-gram ring runs Rs 4,000–6,500 in the market. Stone-set, hand-finished 925 rings start at Rs 5,200 at Zanvari.
What is the 925 silver price in Pakistan today?
About Rs 476 per gram, or Rs 5,550 per tola, as of 21 July 2026. The 925 rate is always 92.5% of the pure chandi rate, because sterling silver is 92.5% silver alloyed with copper for strength.
Why do jewellers charge more than the chandi tola rate?
The tola rate covers only the metal. The finished price adds banwai (the karigar's making charges), stone and setting costs, and finishing such as rhodium plating. Making charges do not shrink with weight, which is why small pieces cost more per gram than heavy ones.
How often does the silver rate change?
Daily, in line with international silver prices and the rupee-dollar rate. The table on this page is refreshed weekly, and city markets can differ by Rs 100–200 per tola on the same day — so treat any published rate as indicative and confirm on the day you buy.
