What is the 24K gold rate in India today?

- Moneycontrol lists ₹15,567 per gram for 24K on June 1, 2026 (Moneycontrol Indian financial news portal)
- Gulf News shows a morning rate of ₹15,704 on June 1, dropping to ₹15,622 by afternoon (Gulf News Gulf-based financial news)
24K gold is 99.9% pure — the highest purity available for gold bullion. This is the standard for investment-grade gold bars and coins.
24K gold price per 10 grams
- ₹1,56,210 for 10 grams of 24K gold (derived from GoodReturns’ per gram rate)
- Moneycontrol shows ₹1,55,670 for 24K on June 1 (Moneycontrol Indian financial news portal)
24K gold price per tola
- At ₹15,621 per gram and 1 tola = 11.66 grams, 1 tola of 24K gold costs ₹1,82,141
The implication: Even within a single day, 24K rates can fluctuate by ₹80+ per gram — a ₹900 swing on a 10g purchase. Intraday timing matters.
Three major sources — GoodReturns, Moneycontrol, and Gulf News — vary by up to ₹137 per gram on 24K for consecutive dates. Buyers checking a single source could miss a materially different rate.
How much is 22K gold in India today?
Current 22K gold price per gram
- GoodReturns: ₹14,320 per gram on June 2, 2026 (GoodReturns daily rate aggregator)
- Moneycontrol: ₹15,525 per gram on June 1, 2026 (Moneycontrol Indian financial news portal)
22K gold is 91.6% pure — the remaining 8.4% consists of alloy metals like copper and silver, which add hardness. This is why Indian jewellers overwhelmingly use 22K for rings, bangles, and necklaces.
22K gold price per 10 grams
- ₹1,43,190 for 22K per 10 grams (GoodReturns base)
- Moneycontrol: ₹1,55,250 for 22K per 10 grams on June 1 (Moneycontrol Indian financial news portal)
22K gold price per tola
- 1 tola of 22K gold: ₹1,66,973 (11.66 g × ₹14,319)
The trade-off: 22K is harder and more durable than 24K, making it practical for daily wear, but you pay for a lower gold content — the difference between a 24K and 22K price today is ₹1,302 per gram.
How much is 10 gram gold in India?
10 gram 24K gold price today
- ₹1,56,210 (GoodReturns, June 2, 2026)
- ₹1,55,670 (Moneycontrol, June 1, 2026)
10 gram 22K gold price today
- ₹1,43,190 (GoodReturns, June 2, 2026)

Comparison of 10 gram rates across cities
Groww’s city-level data for June 1, 2026 reveals notable spreads:
- Chennai 22K per 10g: ₹1,47,034.40 (Groww investment platform)
- Hyderabad 22K per 10g: ₹1,45,626.80 (Groww investment platform)
- Pune 22K per 10g: ₹1,45,626.80 (Groww investment platform)
Two Indian cities, one rate pattern: Hyderabad and Pune are identical, but Chennai runs ₹1,408 higher per 10 grams. Local taxes and transport costs create genuine price differences.
An investor buying 100 grams in Chennai instead of Hyderabad on June 1 would have paid ₹14,076 more — without any difference in gold purity. City-level rate divergence isn’t trivial.
How much is 1 tola gold in India?
Conversion from per gram to per tola
- 1 tola = 11.66 grams (GoldPrice.org conversion standard)
Current 1 tola gold price (24K and 22K)
- 24K per tola: ₹1,82,141
- 22K per tola: ₹1,66,973
Historical significance of tola in India
The tola has been used in India since the British colonial era and remains the standard unit for traditional jewellery — most family jewellers and local bullion dealers still quote in tolas. The difference of ₹15,168 between a tola of 24K and 22K represents the alloy premium paid for durability.
What is the difference between 22K and 24K gold?
Purity percentage comparison
- 24K: 99.9% pure gold (GoodReturns purity definition)
- 22K: 91.6% pure gold (GoodReturns purity definition)
Durability and usage
- 24K is too soft for jewellery — it bends and scratches easily
- 22K’s alloy mix makes it suitable for rings, chains, and ornaments that see daily wear
- BIS hallmarking certifies purity, with a standard 5-digit HUID code
Price difference today
The spread between 24K and 22K varies sharply by source, as this five-source comparison shows.
| Source | 24K per gram | 22K per gram | Spread |
|---|---|---|---|
| GoodReturns (June 2) | ₹15,622 | ₹14,320 | ₹1,302 |
| Moneycontrol (June 1) | ₹15,567 | ₹15,525 | ₹42 |
| Gulf News (June 1 morning) | ₹15,704 | ₹14,395 | ₹1,309 |
| Gulf News (June 1 afternoon) | ₹15,622 | ₹14,320 | ₹1,302 |
| Groww (June 1) | ₹15,475.40 | ₹14,197.54 | ₹1,277.86 |
The pattern: Moneycontrol is an outlier, showing a very narrow 24K-22K spread. All other sources cluster around ₹1,277-1,309 — meaning the purity premium is remarkably consistent at roughly 8% above the 22K rate. A buyer paying less than ₹1,250 premium per gram should question whether the gold is genuinely 24K.

For Indian buyers and investors, the choice between 24K and 22K isn’t just about purity — it’s about use case. A 24K bar is an investment vehicle; a 22K chain is wearable wealth. The numbers confirm that a buyer paying market rate for 22K jewellery and receiving a BIS hallmark is getting fair value — provided they cross-check the source. For the investor considering a 100-gram purchase, the ₹1,302 per gram premium on 24K vs 22K amounts to ₹1,30,200 extra for the purity. That’s a real financial decision, not a theoretical one.
For those planning a gold purchase, consulting the detailed gold price guide provides a thorough overview of today’s rates per gram and tola.
