What Influences the Gold Price Variation Across Cities
- Purity & Type: 24-carat gold is almost pure gold — used mostly for coins, bullion or investment. 22K and 18K are alloyed for durability, often used in jewellery. This explains the price difference across purities.
- Local Demand & Supply: Prices in each city depend on local demand (festivals, weddings) and supply chain logistics.
- Taxes, making charges & local fees: Retail jewellery cost often includes making charges, GST, or additional retailer markup — so the “market rate per gram” may differ from “jewellery price per gram.”
- International Gold & Forex Market: Global gold rate, dollar-rupee exchange rate, and international demand/supply shifts often reflect in Indian gold prices — causing nationwide fluctuations.
What This Means for You (in Siliguri)
- If you are in Siliguri (as you are), the today’s per-gram rate for 24K gold appears to be around ₹ 13,152, and for 22K about ₹ 12,057.
- Before purchasing jewellery/coins — always check with local jewellers for final retail rate (making charges, GST).
- If you were planning an investment (bars/coins), 24K may make sense; for jewellery, 22K or 18K (if available) gives a balance of purity & durability.
