City guides
IBJA publishes one national rate, so the figure above holds across India. Our city pages add what changes locally: where people buy, how shops quote, and what to check before you pay.
Where this rate comes from
The rate is the benchmark published by the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), the rate banks use for gold loans and the RBI uses for Sovereign Gold Bonds. IBJA publishes an opening rate around 12:30 PM and a closing rate around 6:30 PM IST on working days, with no rates on weekends and bank holidays. We read it shortly after each publication.
The 24K figure is IBJA's 999 rate. 22K (916) is 91.6% of it and 18K (750) is 75%, which is how IBJA itself derives them. A jeweller's final price adds 3% GST and a making charge, and many shops set their board rate a little above IBJA. Use the bill estimate above to see the full amount before you visit.
Before you pay: three checks
- Look for three marks on hallmarked jewellery: the BIS logo, the purity (for example 22K916 for 22 carat), and a six-character HUID code. BIS introduced the six-character HUID from 1 July 2021.
- Verify the HUID in the free BIS Care app (Verify HUID). It shows the jeweller who had the piece hallmarked, its purity and the type of article, so you can check it matches what you are buying.
- Ask for a bill that lists the weight, purity, HUID, gold rate, making charge and GST separately, and keep it. You will need it to resell, exchange or insure the piece.
Questions people ask
How is the gold rate in India calculated here?
It is the benchmark rate published by the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), which is the same across India. The 24K figure is IBJA's 999 rate; 22K is 91.6% of it and 18K is 75%, the way IBJA derives them. It excludes 3% GST and making charges, and jewellers in India often set their board rate a little above it, so confirm the final price at the counter.
What does 916 hallmark or 22 carat gold mean?
"916" is the hallmark stamped on 22-carat gold, indicating it is 91.6% pure gold with the rest being alloy metals for strength. Most Indian jewellery is sold in 22K (916) because pure 24K gold is too soft for daily-wear ornaments. 24K is used mainly for coins and bars.
Why do gold rates change every day?
Gold is a globally traded commodity. Its price moves with international demand, the US dollar, interest-rate expectations, central-bank buying and geopolitical events. The rupee–dollar exchange rate and import duty also move the Indian price. IBJA publishes two rates each working day, an opening rate around 12:30 PM and a closing rate around 6:30 PM IST.
Is 24K or 22K gold better for buying?
For jewellery you will wear, 22K (916) is the practical choice — it holds shape and stones better. For pure investment (coins, bars, digital gold) 24K is preferred because it is closer to pure gold and easier to resell at standard purity. Your choice depends on whether you want adornment or a store of value.
Does this rate include making charges?
No. The rate is for the metal only. When you buy jewellery, the jeweller adds a making charge, which depends on the design and the shop, plus 3% GST on the bill. The bill estimate on this page shows the total for any weight and making charge; ask your jeweller for an itemised quote.
