About GoldSilverPrice.in
Our Mission
GoldSilverPrice.in is dedicated to providing accurate, transparent, and up-to-date gold and silver prices across 50 Indian cities. Our goal is to empower Indian savers and investors with reliable pricing data and education to make informed decisions about gold and silver purchases.
In a market where prices vary by location and lack transparency, GoldSilverPrice.in serves as a trusted reference point for understanding fair market rates, comparing city-wise prices, and tracking price trends over days, weeks, and months.
How We Source Our Data
Our prices are sourced from multiple authoritative sources to ensure accuracy and transparency:
- •MCX (Multi Commodity Exchange): India's primary commodities exchange. We track gold and silver futures rates, which serve as the benchmark for most jewellers across India.
- •LBMA (London Bullion Market Association): International spot prices for gold and silver, which form the base for Indian rates after currency and import duty adjustments.
- •IBJA (India Bullion & Jewellers Association): Regional jeweller association benchmarks and guidelines that inform city-wise pricing.
- •RBI (Reserve Bank of India): Reserve Bank policies, guidelines on SGBs (Sovereign Gold Bonds), hallmarking standards, and monetary policy impacts.
Data Quality & Accuracy
Update frequency: Prices are updated once per day by 8:00 AM IST.
City-wise variation: City-wise rates reflect regional benchmarks and may vary from individual store prices by ±0.5%. Actual purchase prices also include:
- Making charges (8% to 35%, varies by jeweller)
- Wastage charges
- GST (3% on jewellery)
We recommend always comparing rates at 2–3 jewellers before making a purchase, as store-level premiums and making charge policies vary.
