If you’re planning to buy gold, brace yourself! The retail price of 10 grams of 24K (99.9%) gold in Delhi has surged to ₹1,01,135, according to Google’s latest market snapshot.
This sharp price reflects not just global market trends, but also includes GST, making charges, and local jeweller premiums, which are often excluded in the lower figures seen on trading platforms or news portals.
🔍 Why This Price Difference?
While many websites show gold rates based on the futures market or MCX base rates (₹95,000–₹97,000), Google and retail jewellers quote the final buying price — the rate you’ll actually pay at the store.
📈 What’s Driving the Gold Surge?
-
Global economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions
-
Steady demand in Indian markets amid festival and wedding preparations
-
Currency fluctuations and inflation hedging by investors
💡 Quick Tip:
Planning to buy gold soon? Always compare the base rate vs retail rate, and check for:

BIS hallmark for purity
