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. Gold is routinely priced and bought in tolas at jewellers' shops (sarrafas) in India and Pakistan. A 10-tola gold bar (116.64 g) is the most popular retail gold bar size in South Asia and the Middle East.
About Kilograms
The kilogram (kg) is the SI base unit of mass - the fundamental unit from which all other mass measurements in the metric system are derived. Since 2019 it has been defined by fixing the Planck constant h to exactly 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s, replacing the 130-year-old International Prototype Kilogram (a platinum-iridium cylinder kept in Sèvres, France). The kilogram governs daily life worldwide: body weight in most countries, grocery shopping, luggage allowances, postal rates, freight pricing, and ingredient quantities in cooking all reference kilograms.
