- 18K gold is 75 % gold, with 25 % alloy metals.

Today’s Gold Rates in India
It is always difficult to predict gold rates as time flows because gold is traded locally in each city on the basis of different taxes which change daily. Here is the recent reports for early October give a benchmark:
- 24K gold is quoted at ₹11,864 per gram in many cities.
- 18K gold is reported around ₹8,898 per gram in the same period.
As 14K is less used in India (jewellery is mostly 18K, 22K, or 24K). If you want to know 14K rates, the rate is roughly (58.3 % / 100 %) of the 24K rate, along with alloy as well as making charges.
Why Rates Vary Across Cities
- Local taxes and duties: State taxes as well as hallmarks, and local shop margins differ.
- Import & global gold price: India mostly imports much of its gold. When Global price swings (in USD/oz) it influences local rates.
- Demand and festival season: Around festival season, demand increases and prices too
- Currency exchange & rupee strength: If rupee weakens, imported gold costs will increase.
On 5 October 2025, the best public rating for India was 24K ~ ₹11,864/g and 18K ~ ₹8,898/g, with 14K which is not widely reported but still calculable with lower fraction plus charges. It’s important to always check your city’s local jeweller as well as bullion dealer for final rates, as taxes, with making charges, and local supply affect the final price, and also compare it with the Yesterday Gold Price for a clearer market trend.
