About Tolas
A tola is a traditional South Asian unit of mass equal to the weight of a silver rupee coin - approximately 11.664 grams. It was the standard unit for weighing gold and silver across India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh for centuries, and remains actively used in gold jewellery markets throughout the subcontinent.

A 10-tola gold bar (116.64 g) is the most popular retail gold bar size in South Asia and the Middle East.
