Tola to Grams Converter

About this calculator

The tola is a traditional South Asian unit of mass, standardized in British India and still legally defined today at exactly 1 tola = 11.6638038 grams (roughly equivalent to the old Mughal-era silver rupee coin's weight, which is where the unit originates). It's almost exclusively used for precious metals rather than general weight.

Jewelers and gold traders across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, as well as Gulf gold souks catering to South Asian expatriates, price and sell gold and silver in tola units — the "10-tola bar" is a standard bullion format in South Asian and Middle Eastern gold markets, alongside gram-denominated bars used elsewhere, so converting between the two is a routine task when comparing prices across regions.
