Jewellery buyers in Nepal still think in tola, while global headlines quote gold in troy ounces and US dollars. That gap confuses travelers and diaspora readers — but the conversion is straightforward once you separate weight from currency.
One Nepal tola is about 11.66 grams. Divide the FENEGOSIDA tola price by that weight to get an approximate NPR-per-gram figure, then scale to 10 grams or a troy ounce for comparison with India, Dubai, or London.
Local NPR gold can rise even when dollar gold is flat, because the NRB NPR/USD rate moved. Use the gold desk for live tola prints and the unit bridge.
