Gold Rate In India
Today’s gold price in India is ₹15349 per gram for 24-karat gold (99.9% purity), ₹14087 per gram for 22-karat gold (91.6% purity), and ₹11539 per gram for 18-karat gold (75% purity). Gold prices directly influence what you pay on new purchases, the current value of the gold you already own and how you think about gold within your overall savings. Even a small move in the per-gram rate can change the budget for bridal jewellery, festive shopping or 10–20 gram coins and bars. The rates shown here are broad market indicators and can differ across cities because of local taxes, transport costs and jeweller margins. Before you buy, it is sensible to confirm the live rate with your jeweller and use the Gold Rate Calculator to work out a realistic final bill after adding weight, purity, making charges and GST.

FAQ
-
What is the gold rate today in India?
The current gold price in India is ₹15349 per gram for 24K gold, ₹14087per gram for 22K gold and ₹11539per gram for 18K gold. These levels can change during the day in line with moves in international bullion prices and the rupee–dollar exchange rate, so if you are planning a larger purchase, it is worth checking the latest quote close to the time you buy.
-
Who decides today’s gold rate in India?
Daily gold rates inIndia start with international bullion prices and the rupee–dollar exchange rate, but local factors then come into play. Jewellers’ associations in the region often publish reference rates, and individual jewellers overlay their own margins, making charges and running costs. Import duties, GST and city-specific overheads are built into the final tags, so the rate in India may differ from what you see in another city on the same day.
-
Is gold cheaper in India compared to other cities?
Gold in India can be slightly cheaper or costlier than in other cities because the final price reflects more than just global rates. Local demand, the number of competing jewellers, transport and insurance costs and city-level taxes all influence what shows up on your bill. For big-ticket purchases, many buyers compare quotes from two or three jewellers or even nearby cities on the same day to judge both the rate and the level of making charges.
-
What is 10 grams of 22K gold worth in India today?
At today’s price, 10 grams of 22K gold in India is worth roughly ₹14087, based on 10 multiplied by the 22K per-gram rate. This gives a useful baseline for the metal value alone. Once you pick a specific design in-store, the invoice for a 10-gram piece will also include making charges, any wastage and GST, which together can create a noticeable gap between the simple “rate × weight” calculation and the final amount you pay.
-
Why does the gold rate change every day?
Gold prices move daily because they are tied to live markets, just like stock or currency prices.
Key reasons include:- Global gold price moves based on interest rates, inflation and risk sentiment.
- Rupee–dollar fluctuations, which change the landed cost of imported gold.
- Local demand spikes during festivals, wedding seasons or big investment days.
- Government duties and policy changes, which can alter imported gold’s base cost.
- Even if you check rates twice on the same day, you may see minor changes as markets move.
-
Why is today’s gold price different in each city?
While the international price is common, final retail rates vary across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata and other cities because of local costs and competition. Differences come from:
- Transport and insurance costs to move gold to different hubs.
- Varying making‑charge benchmarks and margins across jewellers.
- Local demand patterns (for example, strong wedding demand in some regions).
- So you may see a few rupees difference per gram between metros on the same day.
-
What is the difference between 24K, 22K and 18K gold in today’s rate?
Today’s 24K price reflects almost pure gold (99.9%), so it is the highest per gram. The 22K rate is based on 91.6% purity and is used for most traditional Indian jewellery, while 18K (75%) is common for diamond, white‑gold and rose‑gold designs.
Your bill will mention the karat, today’s per‑gram rate for that karat in your city and the weight of gold used in the ornament.
-
How can I be sure I am paying today’s correct rate?
To ensure you’re getting the correct day’s rate: Check live rates on trusted financial/gold‑rate portals before visiting a store.
- See if the jeweller’s displayed “today’s rate” per gram matches what you see online (allowing for small local differences).
- Ask for a detailed invoice that clearly shows purity (Karat), rate per gram, weight, making charges and taxes.
- If a store’s quoted rate is significantly above widely‑available rates without explanation, it’s better to cross‑check elsewhere.
-
What is hallmark gold and why does it matter at today’s price?
Hallmark gold is jewellery that has been tested and certified for purity by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and stamped with official marks. These marks confirm that the karat and fineness printed on the ornament match actual purity levels.
Buying hallmarked gold means you are more likely to receive full value for the purity you pay for, especially when today’s prices are high. It also makes resale and exchange easier because buyers trust the BIS mark.
-
How do I check the purity and hallmark on a gold ornament?
Look for these on the jewellery:
- BIS logo
- Purity mark (e.g., 22K 916, 18K 750),
- Jeweller’s identification mark,
- Assaying & hallmarking centre mark and HUID (unique ID).
- You can also verify hallmarking centres and sometimes even HUID details through official BIS resources and apps, or get purity verified on a karat‑meter at reputed stores.
-
Why is the gold jewellery price higher than the “today’s rate” shown online?
Online today’s rate usually shows the bare metal rate per gram without making charges and taxes. When you buy jewellery, you also pay:
- Making charges (percentage or per‑gram),
- Wastage/design premium for intricate work,
- GST on the total.
- Coins and bars have lower making charges, so their invoice value stays closer to the published day’s rate.
-
Is today a good day to buy gold?
Whether today is a good entry point depends on your purpose, time horizon and budget rather than just the headline rate. If you are buying for:
A near‑term event (wedding/festival), you may prioritise timing of the function over waiting for a perfect price.
Long‑term investment, you can stagger buys through ETFs, SGBs or digital gold to average out short‑term volatility.
Checking where today’s price sits versus the last few months’ range can help you decide if you want to buy fully, partially, or wait.
-
What are my options if I want to benefit from today’s gold price without buying physical gold?
You can get exposure to today’s gold price through:
- Gold ETFs, which track domestic gold prices and trade like shares on exchanges.
- Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs), which are government‑backed, give periodic interest and are linked to gold prices at redemption.
- Gold mutual funds or digital gold offered by some platforms.
- These options remove storage and purity worries, though they come with their own tax rules, exit conditions and market risks.
-
How does today’s high price affect gold loans?
When gold prices are high, the value of the collateral you pledge (your jewellery) is also higher, so lenders may be able to offer a larger loan amount for the same ornament weight, within regulatory LTV limits. However, if prices fall sharply later, you may face a margin call or need to top up collateral depending on the lender’s policy.
Before taking a gold loan, compare interest rates, processing fees and foreclosure charges across banks and NBFCs.
Gold and silver often move in the same broad direction, but they behave and serve different purposes in a portfolio. Gold is seen as the primary hedge against inflation and currency risk in India, with a long record of preserving purchasing power across cycles. At today’s prices gold at ₹[Price 1gm] per gram and Silver at ₹[Price 1gm] per gram. The decision is less about which metal looks “cheaper” and more about whether you want relatively stable hedge characteristics or are willing to live with sharper price swings for potentially different kinds of opportunities over time. Silver is a smaller, more industrially driven market, with significant use in electronics, solar panels and other technologies, which makes its price more volatile than gold. In practice, many investors treat gold as the core metal exposure and silver as an optional satellite on top, adjusting the mix based on time horizon, risk appetite and what they already hold in equity, debt, real estate and physical gold jewellery. If your main goal is to build a hedge against inflation and rupee weakness, you are likely to tilt more towards gold at current levels; if you also want exposure to industrial and technology-linked demand, adding a measured slice of silver can give your overall metals allocation a different flavour.
