How the gold rate in India is decided

India imports nearly all the gold it consumes, so the domestic price starts with the international spot price, quoted in US dollars per troy ounce. That price is converted to rupees at the prevailing exchange rate, which is why a weaker rupee pushes Indian gold prices up even when the global price is flat. Customs duty and other import levies are added on top, followed by a domestic market premium that reflects local supply and demand.

The rates on this page track that landed retail benchmark for pure 24K gold, with 22K derived at 91.6% purity — the standard for most Indian jewellery — and 18K at 75%. Jewellers set their board rates from the same inputs, which is why quotes across the country move together but can differ by a few rupees per gram between cities and between individual shops.

When you buy jewellery, two more components apply at the billing counter: making charges (either a percentage of the gold value or a flat amount per gram) and 3% GST on the total. Always check that jewellery carries the BIS hallmark with a six-digit HUID, which certifies the stated purity, and ask how the shop values exchange or buy-back before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gold rate today in India?

Today's gold rate in India is ₹14,394 per gram for 24K (99.9% pure) gold and ₹13,185 per gram for 22K (91.6% pure) gold. Rates on this page refresh every 10 minutes during market hours.

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

24K gold is 99.9% pure and is used for coins, bars and investment products. 22K gold is 91.6% pure (hallmarked 916) — it is alloyed with metals like copper and silver for strength, which makes it the standard for Indian jewellery. Because purity is lower, 22K is always cheaper per gram than 24K.

Why do gold rates change every day?

Domestic gold prices track the international spot market, which moves with global demand, central-bank buying, interest rates and geopolitical events. The rupee–dollar exchange rate adds a second layer: if the rupee weakens, gold becomes costlier in India even when the global price is steady.

Is GST included in the gold rate shown here?

No. Like jewellers' board rates, the rates shown are before tax. When you buy, 3% GST is charged on the value of gold plus making charges. For example, jewellery with a metal value of ₹1,00,000 and ₹10,000 making charges attracts ₹3,300 GST.

Why do gold rates differ from city to city?

The base price is the same nationwide, but local associations, transport and handling costs, and dealer-level demand create small differences of a few rupees per gram between cities. Individual jewellers within the same city can also quote slightly different board rates.

How can I check the purity of gold jewellery?

Look for the BIS hallmark: the BIS logo, the purity mark (916 for 22K, 750 for 18K) and a six-digit alphanumeric HUID code. You can verify the HUID in the BIS Care mobile app. Hallmarking is mandatory for gold jewellery sold in India.
