According to data provided by the All Pakistan Sarafa Gems and Jewellers Association (APSGJA), the rate of gold (24 carats) increased by Rs500 per tola and Rs429 per 10 grams to reach Rs225,500 and Rs193,330, respectively. The rise in the gold price came despite the precious metal\u2019s value declining in the international market by $19 to settle at $2,017 per ounce. The bullion rate has been on a steady uptrend in Pakistan, as economic fundamentals weakened, the rupee depreciated and inflation soared to record highs. During such times, people prefer to buy the yellow metal to protect themselves against inflation and currency depreciation. April inflation clocked in at 36.4% year-on-year \u2014 a record high. It means Pakistan has the fastest rising prices in Asia, beating even Sri Lanka where inflation was measured at 35.3% in the previous month. Separately, weekly inflation hit an all-time high during the seven-day period ending May 4, rising to 48.35% year-on-year, as the prices of chicken and wheat flour continued to increase, official data showed.
