How this rate is calculated

The price shown converts the live international spot price of gold (quoted in US dollars per troy ounce) into rupees per 10 grams using the current USD-INR exchange rate. This is the market reference rate — the same basis on which MCX futures and jeweller association rates are built. Retail prices at your jeweller will be higher because they add customs duty, 3% GST, and making charges; use this page to track the direction and size of daily moves.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the jeweller's gold price higher than the spot rate?

Retail gold in India adds import duty, 3% GST, and the jeweller's making charges on top of the international spot price. Depending on the city and jeweller, the final price is typically 8–15% above the spot-equivalent rate shown here.

What is the difference between 24K and 22K gold?

24K is pure gold (99.9%). 22K is 91.6% gold alloyed with other metals for durability, which is why it's the standard for Indian jewellery. The 22K rate is simply 91.6% of the 24K rate.

What moves the gold rate in India?

Two things: the international spot price (driven by central-bank buying, interest rates, and global uncertainty) and the USD-INR exchange rate. A weaker rupee raises Indian gold prices even when the global price is flat.

Is this rate the same in every city?

The market reference rate is national, but quoted retail rates vary slightly by city due to local taxes, transport, and jeweller association pricing. The variation is usually under 1%.
