Gold price in Delhi, session by session

IBJA fixes twice a trading day. The morning fix sets the rate most shops open on and the afternoon fix is what the day closes at, so a piece quoted late can differ from one quoted at eleven.

Where to buy gold in Delhi

The gold trade in Delhi sits in Dariba Kalan, Chandni Chowk. A silver and gold lane inside Chandni Chowk trading since the Mughal period; Karol Bagh is the modern bridal-jewellery cluster.

Jewellery houses founded in Delhi or elsewhere in Delhi include PC Jeweller, Hazoorilal Legacy and Mehrasons. A chain’s own board rate is its rate, not the benchmark: it already carries the house’s premium and it is the making charge underneath, not the headline, that decides what the piece costs.

The north still quotes in tolas as often as in grams, and a tola is 11.66 grams, not ten. A rate that looks high against the per-10-gram fix is usually a tola rate. Bridal sets dominate demand, and their making charges are among the highest on any gold purchase.

RouteSmallest purchaseCost on the way inCost on the way out
Jewellery from a BIS-registered jeweller

Hallmarking centres in Delhi

Delhi has 36 operative BIS-recognised assaying and hallmarking centres, which places it 3rd of the fifty cities on this site. That is one of the deepest concentrations in the country and it is the reason a second opinion on purity is easy to get here: Delhi alone holds 2.6% of every operative centre in India. Hallmarking is compulsory on gold jewellery, and the mark carries a six-digit HUID that can be checked against the BIS register before money changes hands. Every centre below is named in that register.

Silver in Delhi


Gold-to-silver ratio
67.6grams of silver buy one gram of gold

Both legs are the IBJA fix for the same session, so the ratio moves only when one metal moves against the other.

Common questions

What is the 24 carat gold rate in Delhi today?

Gold of 999 fineness is ₹14,943 a gram, or ₹1,49,430 per 10 grams, on the IBJA fix of 9 Oct 2026. That figure excludes 3% GST.

What is the 22 carat gold rate in Delhi today?

Gold of 916 fineness is ₹13,688 a gram, or ₹1,36,878 per 10 grams. It is 91.6% gold, which is why it is 8.4% below the 24 carat rate.

What does one tola of gold cost in Delhi?

A tola is 11.66 grams, so 24 carat gold works out at ₹1,74,292 and 22 carat at ₹1,59,652, before GST.

Why does the gold rate in Delhi differ from the price a jeweller quotes?

The fix is the metal alone. A bill adds 3% GST and a making charge, which on jewellery commonly runs between 8% and 25% of the metal value depending on the design, and is not recovered when the piece is sold back.

Does the gold rate change by city?

IBJA fixes one rate for India and it is the rate lenders and jewellers price against. What changes locally is the making charge, the dealer premium on small pieces and how much competition there is: Delhi has 36 BIS-recognised assaying and hallmarking centres.

Has gold gone up or down over the last year?

Gold is up 17.7% over twelve months, and up 208.5% over five years, measured in rupees.
