Gold Rate Today in India

Today's 24K gold rate in India is approximately ₹12,337 per gram, based on live international spot prices converted to INR.

24K gold is 99.9% pure and mainly used for investment. 22K gold is about 91.6% pure and is the standard purity used for jewellery in India because pure 24K gold is too soft to shape.

No. This is a national reference rate based on live spot prices. Local jewellers add making charges, GST and city-specific premiums on top of this base rate.

Gold rates in India are driven mainly by international spot prices (traded in USD), the USD/INR exchange rate, import duty and taxes, and local demand during the wedding and festive seasons. A stronger rupee or falling global prices typically brings rates down, while global uncertainty tends to push them up.

The international gold price is quoted per troy ounce (31.1035 grams) in US dollars. This site converts that price to INR using the live USD/INR exchange rate, then divides by 31.1035 to arrive at the price per gram, which is further adjusted for purity (24K, 22K, 18K).

Hallmarked gold carries a BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification confirming its purity, such as 916 for 22K or 999 for 24K. Buying hallmarked gold protects you from being overcharged for a lower purity than claimed, and hallmarking is now mandatory for gold jewellery sold in India.
