About Tolatogram.net
A free, independent tola to gram conversion resource and educational measurement guide.
Tolatogram.net is a free tola to gram converter with plain-English guides for people who buy, sell, inherit or simply measure gold and silver in tola. It is built for one job: giving you a correct gram weight, and helping you understand where that number comes from.
Why this site exists
The tola looks simple, but people get different answers for it. Some say 10 grams, some say 12, and some round to 11.66 or 11.664. A small mistake can matter when the weight is gold. We built this site to give one clear, checked answer and to explain the reasons behind the differences.
Here is the answer we work from. One tola is 180 troy grains, which is exactly 11.6638038 grams. Many shops round this to 11.664 g, and our tools let you see both so you can match the figure on your own bill.
What you will find here
- The converter: Enter a tola amount to see its weight in grams, with a control for how many decimal places you want.
- A full guide to the tola: It explains how the conversion works, a reference table, related units and how to read a jewellery receipt.
- Regional guides: Habits differ between countries, so we write separate guides for Pakistan, Nepal, the UAE & Dubai and the UK. Each one covers local terms, local weight rules where they matter, and what to check before you buy.
How we keep the information accurate
We start from definitions, not from other websites. The tola is tied to the grain and the troy ounce, and the grain is defined in metric units. We use those definitions to calculate every figure ourselves, with exact decimal arithmetic, and we do not copy numbers from other converters.
We use primary sources where they are available. Where a page makes a legal or country-specific claim, it links to the relevant authority or clearly labels the information as general guidance. We do not present a source as evidence until it is linked on the page.
We say when a convention varies. If a document can use more than one named unit or local convention, we explain the distinction and advise readers to check the document and scale.
We keep prices out. Gold prices change all the time, and a converter is not the right place for them. We never quote prices, and the guides explain the difference between weight and price.
How content is maintained
The site owner maintains the calculator and guides. Pages with country-specific guidance show a review date and source links where a primary source is available. We do not currently publish individual author biographies or claim review by a named technical editor.
What we do not do
- We do not sell gold, silver or jewellery, and we do not take payment from jewellers to promote them.
- We do not give financial, investment, tax or legal advice.
- We are not a government body or a weights and measures authority. For a legal weighing, use a certified scale in your country.
Corrections and updates
Key guidance pages show a review date. If you find a mistake, a broken link or a value that does not match the rule in your country, please tell us at contact@tolatogram.net. We will review substantiated reports and update confirmed corrections.
