The Saudi Riyal strengthened against the Pakistani Rupee on Thursday, continuing its steady upward trend in the local currency market. The Riyal was recorded at Rs75.65 for buying and Rs76.30 for selling in Pakistan’s open market.
This rise is particularly significant for Pakistani households that depend on remittances from family members working in Saudi Arabia. A stronger Riyal means families back home receive more money in rupee terms, providing some relief amid ongoing inflation and high living costs.

Saudi Arabia remains Pakistan’s largest remittance source, with millions of Pakistani workers living and earning in the Kingdom. Remittance inflows usually increase ahead of winter and holiday travel seasons, leading to higher demand for the Riyal in the currency market.
At the current exchange rate:
500 Saudi Riyals equal approximately Rs37,825 in Pakistan.
Currency market dealers state that demand for the Riyal is likely to stay firm in the coming weeks due to continued remittance flows and travel-related exchanges.
