Coconut Price in Pakistan Today (Nariyal Rate) | November 2026
The coconut price in Pakistan (ناریل / nariyal) today is Rs. 465 – Rs. 485 per piece in the official Lahore rate list (3 November 2026). Pakistan grows only a small number of coconuts along the Sindh coast, so most coconuts come from Sri Lanka, Indonesia and other countries – which is why prices follow the dollar rate and import costs.

Types of Coconut Sold in Pakistan
- Dry brown coconut – the common nariyal sold by fruit sellers, used for its flesh.
- Green (tender) coconut – sold mainly in Karachi for coconut water.
- Khopra / garri – dried coconut kernel used in sweets, halwa and cooking.
- Desiccated coconut – grated, dried coconut for baking.
Where Do Coconuts Come From?
Coconut palms need a hot, humid coastal climate. In Pakistan, a small number grow in Thatta, Karachi and the Makran coast, but supply is far below demand. Most coconuts are imported, so prices rise when the rupee weakens or freight costs go up. Demand peaks during weddings, Muharram and festive seasons, when coconut is used in sweets.

- Coconut water is a natural electrolyte drink in summer.
- Coconut flesh and khopra are used in halwa, laddoo, barfi and curries.
