Why gold weight units differ
The UAE quotes gold in the metric gram. South Asian buyers still use the tola. Investors and world markets use the troy ounce.
Mixing these units is a common source of confusion. A tola is not a round number of grams. This tool removes the guesswork for you.

From weight to value
The converter multiplies the grams by today’s 24K rate. That gives the pure metal value of the weight. Making charges and 5% VAT are added separately by a shop.
For a full till estimate, use our gold calculator. To check a shop’s labour fee, try the making charge calculator. Both work from the same live rate.
Which unit should you use
Buy and compare in grams for the clearest view. Use the tola only for heavy traditional pieces. Track the troy ounce if you follow world prices.
See the live rate for each weight on our per gram page. Compare karats on the 24K and 22K pages. Every figure uses the same benchmark.
