City Notes
- Mumbai: Competitive market with some jewellers offering lower premiums — compare making charges carefully.
- Bengaluru: Rates aligned with regional hubs; watch for festival demand surcharges at popular malls and local boutiques.
- Chennai: Established gold-buying culture — insist on BIS hallmark and ask for weight and purity on the bill.
- Hyderabad: Strong retail demand; negotiate making charges on studded jewellery where possible.
- New Delhi: Highest retail rates among headline cities — factor in local taxes and retailer margins when buying.
- Kolkata: Prices mirror southern hubs; verify jeweller’s buy-back policy for future disposals.
What Drives Today’s Prices
- Global spot gold: International bullion rates set a base; retail follows global moves after currency conversion.
- INR/USD movement: A weaker rupee raises local rupee prices for imported gold; a stronger rupee eases pressure.
- Import duties & taxes: Customs duty and local taxes influence landed cost and retail pricing cushions.
- MCX and domestic futures: Domestic futures and exchange cues often influence short-term retail pricing and dealer hedging costs.
- Local demand & festivals: Regional demand spikes (festivals, weddings) can push premiums and making charges higher.
Buyer Tips
- Prefer BIS hallmark; verify the stamp and karatage on the invoice and the piece.
- 24K vs 22K: 24K is purer (higher intrinsic value) but softer; 22K is more durable for daily-wear jewellery.
- Making charges and wastage: These non-metal costs can outweigh small bullion price differences; get a full price break-up in writing.
- Check buy-back and invoice details: Know the buy-back policy, charges, and whether the jeweller pays metal value or discounted rates.
FAQs
- Q: Are these rates final retail prices?
A: These are reference city retail rates per 10g; actual final price will include making charges, GST and any local premiums set by the jeweller. - Q: How to confirm purity?
A: Ask for BIS hallmarks and an itemised invoice showing karatage (24K/22K) and net gold weight. - Q: Why do making charges vary so much?
A: Making charges depend on design complexity, labour, store policy and whether the item is studded or plain; always request a written breakdown. - Q: When is the best time to buy gold?
A: From a price perspective, buy when international spot gold and the rupee are favourable; from a value perspective, buy during retailer promotions or negotiate making charges, especially for heavier pieces.
