FAQ

What is the gold rate in India today?

The Free view shows licensed USD spot delayed 15 minutes, converted with live FX from exchangerate.dev. Refreshes automatically. Prices shown are metal value only and exclude 3% GST and making charges (8-25%) levied by the retailer.

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

24K gold is 99.9% pure (999 hallmark) and is used for investment-grade bars and coins. 22K is 91.67% pure (916 hallmark) and is the standard for Indian wedding jewelry because pure 24K is too soft to hold intricate designs. The price difference is the purity ratio: 22K costs 22/24 (91.67%) of 24K per gram.

How much is 1 tola of gold in India today?

1 tola = 11.6638 grams. The price table shows per-tola prices beside per-gram prices. The tola is the traditional Indian gold unit, predating the metric system but still used by every jeweler and bullion dealer.

How is the gold rate in India calculated?

International spot price (USD per troy ounce) converted to INR via current FX, divided by 31.1035 (grams per troy ounce), then adjusted for purity (24K = 99.9%, 22K = 22/24 of the 24K price). For a finished jewelry purchase, add the making charge and other taxable additions, then calculate 3% GST on the total transaction value.

What is GST on gold in India?

For a finished jewelry sale, the official CBIC jewelry FAQ applies 3% GST to the total transaction value, including making charges even when shown separately. A ₹100,000 metal value plus ₹15,000 making charge therefore produces ₹3,450 GST. The separate 5% job-work rate concerns the manufacturing service supplied to the jeweler, not the jeweler's finished sale to the customer.

When is the next big gold-buying festival in India?

Dhanteras falls on November 6, 2026 (Diwali November 8, 2026). These two days are the highest-volume gold-buying days of the Indian calendar. Historically, gold prices rise 2-5% in the two weeks before. Akshaya Tritiya in April-May is the other major festival window.

How do Indian retail gold rates relate to the international spot price?

International spot provides a starting value. Convert USD per troy ounce to INR, divide by 31.1035 for grams, then adjust for purity. Retail quotes can include local premiums, taxes, dealer margins and making charges. Our INR spot price reflects the converted metal value.
