Silver Price Trend Chart
Silver Nisab for Zakat 2026
Calculated at the current rate of Rs. 7658 per tola, the Nisab threshold for silver (52.5 tolas) stands at Rs. 402,045 for today, May 06, 2026. If your net wealth has stayed above this figure for a full lunar year, Zakat becomes applicable.
Correction in Trend: Today’s rate of Rs. 7658 indicates a significant downward shift in the Pakistani silver market. This “industrial shortage” globally is keeping local prices resilient despite domestic fluctuations.
Industrial Demand: Silver is trending because it is far more accessible than gold for the average family. Its massive use in solar panels and high-tech manufacturing means the global supply is tightening.
Investment Outlook: For investors in Pakistan, silver has quietly become a top choice to track rates as a hedge against inflation. Buying at the Rs. 7658 level is considered a solid entry point before potential global price hikes.
