Gujarat gold rate today: what this page reports
The figures above are the page’s dated gold rate today in Gujarat reference. Groww’s Gujarat heading, date and quantity rows reconcile: the quoted per-gram values multiplied by 10 equal its published per-10-gram values. That consistency is why this page uses Groww as the primary board rather than estimating one purity from another. 1
The board shows a daily change alongside each 10-gram figure. It reports 15 October lower than 14 October by ₹820 for 24K, ₹750 for 22K and ₹610 for 18K per 10 grams. The preceding row supplies the actual previous-day observations: ₹1,48,310, ₹1,35,950 and ₹1,11,230 per 10 grams. A daily direction is useful context, but it does not turn a reference board into a locked retail offer. 1
This is an INR-per-gram page. “24K,” “22K” and “18K” are distinct purity categories, so comparing their rupee amounts without noting purity is misleading. The most useful comparison is like-for-like: same date, same source, same purity, same weight and the same invoice scope.
For broader context on daily reference rates, see TradeGrows’ India gold rate page. This Gujarat page deliberately keeps the regional board separate from national pages and from individual-city pages.
What the Gujarat publisher board does—and does not—cover
The Gujarat-labelled publisher board is a reference point for Gujarat. It is not a quotation issued by every retailer in the state, and it is not a claim that every counter will charge the same all-in amount. This article does not carry city values into an all-Gujarat quote.
The board’s rate is best read as a metal-price reference at the stated purity and weight. It does not identify an individual design, a store’s stock position, a stone setting, a delivery location or a particular exchange policy. Those features can change the amount paid even if the day’s metal reference is unchanged.
Groww’s separate help material says that its live gold price is based on wholesale spot-market prices and excludes taxes. That explains why a market-style figure should not be treated as a final jewellery receipt. The Gujarat rate page includes a separate illustrative “true cost” panel that puts 3% GST and estimated making, wastage and hallmarking/certification items after the metal value; it does not declare one universal tax-inclusive basis for every rate row. 1 3
Accordingly, the rate card in this article is a pre-invoice reference, not a tax-inclusive purchase total. Ask the seller what price basis is being used before comparing two quotations. A difference can be a charge difference rather than a disagreement over the day’s gold price.
How the 15 October reference was verified
The primary source was checked on 2026-10-15T10:01:13Z. It shows the heading “Gold Rate Today in Gujarat (15 Oct 2026),” a last-updated date of 15 Oct 2026, a three-purity summary in rupees per gram, and matching 10-gram rows. It supplies ten dated daily observations, including 14 October. It does not display an intraday time; the record therefore stores quoteTime as null rather than inventing a time. 1
An independent Gujarat page from Candere was also checked. Its 15 October structured current and history tables state ₹14,754, ₹13,515 and ₹11,066 per gram for 24K, 22K and 18K. These are table-only figures, not an input to an average or a verified alternative quotation: Candere’s accompanying prose gives different 22K and 18K figures from its own structured table. The raw conflicting figures are preserved in the research evidence; this page does not use Candere as the displayed rate. 2
This method matters because two pages can use the same city or state label while using different collection times, retail assumptions or update processes. A small gap between provider boards is not evidence that one is the shop price. It is a reason to request an itemised quote from the seller you are considering.
For an explanation of how TradeGrows labels dated boards and missing timing fields, read the market-data method. The distinction protects readers from assuming a fetched page is a continuously updating feed.
24K, 22K, 18K and 916 gold: read purity before price
Caratage measures the gold content of an alloy. The World Gold Council describes 24 carat as pure gold with no other metals and says lower caratages contain less gold; its examples place 18 carat at 75% gold. It also explains fineness as precious-metal content in parts per thousand. 8
On the Gujarat board, 24K is labelled 99.9% purity, 22K is labelled 91.6%, and 18K is labelled 75%. 1 In everyday jewellery language, 916 gold means 22K fineness of 916 parts per thousand. It is a purity designation, not a separate price category that can be compared against a 24K rate without adjustment.
BIS lists 14K (585), 18K (750), 20K (833), 22K (916), 23K (958) and 24KS (995) among the caratage/fineness grades permitted for hallmarking under its cited standard. 4 The mark on a particular item and the invoice description are more useful than a generic label in an advertisement.
A higher carat number does not settle whether a piece is suitable for a particular design. Design requirements, wear, clasp construction, stone setting and the customer’s preference can all matter. The disciplined comparison is not “which purity is better” in the abstract. It is “what purity is stamped, what is the net gold weight, and how was this particular item priced?”
For a fuller explanation of the distinction, see the 22K and 24K gold guide. It should be read as background, not as a substitute for examining the actual item and its bill.
Per gram and per 10 grams: make the unit visible
Gold quotes in Gujarat are commonly shown per gram and per 10 grams. The primary board provides both. On 15 October, the 24 carat gold price is ₹14,749 per gram and ₹1,47,490 per 10 grams; the multiplication is exact. The same relationship applies to its 22K and 18K rows. 1
A unit error can make two identical quotations look far apart. Before doing any arithmetic, circle the unit written on the quote. A figure expressed for 10 grams must be divided by 10 before it is compared with a per-gram rate. A figure for an item must be separated into metal value, labour and other billable components before it is compared with either reference.
Avoid turning a per-gram board into a claimed price for a bracelet, ring or necklace by multiplying only the gross weight. Jewellery may include stones, enamel, thread, screws or other non-gold components. A board does not tell you the net metal weight of a particular piece.
Use the quantity display as a unit converter for the board’s own rates, not as a completed-purchase calculator. The seller’s measurement and the invoice remain decisive for a specific item.
Why the board rate can differ from a jewellery invoice
The simplest purchase calculation begins with the item’s net gold weight, not its gross weight. The metal value normally follows from net weight multiplied by the seller’s applicable per-gram rate for the stated purity. The invoice may then show making charges, stone value or charges, and GST. Each line needs a label.
The cited CBEC sectoral FAQ, now hosted by the GST Council, includes GST-transition material effective from 1 July 2017. It is historical official guidance, not newly enacted law or confirmation that a particular invoice is correct. Its Question 7 says that, when jewellery is sold to an end customer, GST is payable at 3% of the total transaction value whether the making charge is shown separately or not. Question 8 treats job work separately: it says a registered job worker pays 5% GST on job charges only and describes the jewellery manufacturer’s input-tax-credit treatment. That job-work answer must not be carried over to a consumer jewellery-sale invoice. Check the document, current official guidance and the transaction’s actual invoice. 7
Groww’s Gujarat page presents its own illustration with 3% GST and an estimated making-charge range, then separately lists estimated wastage and hallmarking/certification amounts. These are provider examples, not prescribed Gujarat retail charges or an assurance that a shop uses those ranges. 1
A transparent bill should allow a buyer to see which amount came from the metal reference, which amount came from the design and workmanship, and which amount reflects tax. If a seller presents only one total, ask for the itemised version before comparing it with another item or another retailer.
Hypothetical invoice example: label every input
Hypothetical only—not a current Gujarat quote. Imagine a 22K item with 10.00 grams of net gold. Suppose the disclosed metal value is ₹100,000 and the disclosed making charge is ₹10,000. The transaction value in this simplified example is ₹110,000. Applying 3% GST to that transaction value gives ₹3,300, for a hypothetical total of ₹113,300. This illustrates the official FAQ’s treatment of separately stated making charges; it is not a price prediction or a template for every bill. 7
Now change the example. If the displayed weight had included a 1.00-gram stone component, using 10.00 grams as gold weight could overstate the metal-value line. The correct input is the net gold weight and the seller’s stated treatment of every non-gold component. That is why a round-number example is useful for understanding the structure but cannot validate a live invoice.
When comparing two designs, place the details in the same order: purity, gross weight, stone or other deductions, net gold weight, metal rate, making charge method, GST and final total. Only then is “cheaper” a meaningful conclusion.
Ahmedabad and Surat: compare seller quotations, not labels
For readers comparing an Ahmedabad quotation with a Surat quotation, city names do not supply an all-Gujarat price. This page uses the source’s Gujarat-labelled publisher reference. Treat either city’s retailer or city reference as its own dated quotation, not as a replacement for that provider reference.
The practical comparison is an item-to-item exercise, not a supposed statewide city premium. Ask whether the proposed piece is a standard design or a custom order. Ask whether the making charge is quoted as a rupee amount, a per-gram amount or a percentage. Then ask whether the listed weight is net of stones and whether repairs, resizing or an exchange will affect later terms.
Do not infer a lower bill from location. Retail overhead, craftsmanship, design complexity, delivery timing and a seller’s service policy can all affect a quotation. Without an itemised quote for a comparable item, a city label alone is not price evidence.
A useful practice is to request an itemised quote for the same purity and comparable net metal weight from each seller. Do not compare a 916 gold piece with an 18K piece just because both are rings. Do not compare a stone-set piece’s gross weight with a plain item’s net gold weight. The result will be clearer than treating city labels as price guarantees.
Retail reference, spot indication and MCX are different things
A retail-reference board is designed to display a consumer-facing daily gold figure. A spot indication describes an underlying market price at a particular moment and may be wholesale in character. An MCX gold contract is an exchange-traded futures instrument with its own contract specifications, expiry and market mechanics. They are related market references, but they are not interchangeable invoice lines.
Groww says its live gold buy and sell prices are based on wholesale spot-market prices and exclude taxes. That statement should not be stretched into a claim that the Gujarat page’s rate is a completed retail purchase price, or that a retailer must sell at an MCX number. 3
A jewellery invoice additionally depends on purity, net weight and workmanship. A futures quote additionally depends on its contract and expiry. For an example of the market-specific context that can accompany an MCX discussion, see this MCX gold and domestic-rate explainer. A global spot quote can use another currency and unit. Converting among them without stating the basis adds a false precision that is unhelpful for a buyer standing at a counter.
Readers who want to understand commodity-market terminology can start with commodity trading basics. That educational material is distinct from a recommendation to transact in any market or product.
Hallmark and HUID: a buyer’s evidence trail
BIS defines hallmarking as the accurate determination and official recording of the proportionate precious-metal content in an article. Its general FAQ says that, since HUID was introduced, a gold hallmark consists of the BIS logo, the purity in caratage and fineness, and a six-digit alphanumeric HUID number. 4
For a covered hallmarked piece, look at the physical marks rather than relying only on a verbal assurance. Match the displayed caratage and fineness to the invoice description. Ask to see the mark with magnification if needed. BIS says a jeweller should have a magnifying glass of at least 10X available to show the hallmark and that the fineness/caratage relationship should be displayed. 4
The HUID is specific to an item. BIS says a consumer can use the “Verify HUID” feature in the BIS Care app to obtain related details, and its consumer-protection page says the feature can be used before purchase. Verification is valuable evidence, but it does not replace checking the item, weight and invoice. 4 5
Do not assert that a particular shop is registered or that a particular article falls within every mandatory-hallmarking rule unless you have checked it in the relevant official resource. This article makes no such shop-specific claim. It explains how a shopper can document and verify an actual item.
Net weight, stones and detachable parts
Net weight is the metal weight used for the gold-value calculation after non-gold material is handled as stated by the seller. Gross weight is the whole item’s measured weight. The two can be the same for a plain piece, but they can differ for stone-set or multi-material jewellery.
Before accepting a quote, ask the seller to write the gross weight, the net gold weight, the purity and the weight or value assigned to stones or other parts. If a deduction is used, ask whether it is measured, calculated from a standard assumption, or priced independently. Record the answer on the quotation or invoice.
BIS notes that every article in a pair and detachable parts should have hallmarking and fineness details, with different HUIDs, where applicable. That is particularly useful for items with removable parts because a general description of the set can hide different components. 4
This is not an argument against intricate jewellery. It is an argument for a bill that lets a buyer tell metal value from design value. The more components an item has, the more valuable it is to have the description written rather than remembered.
Making charges, wastage and design complexity
Making charges pay for workmanship and can be presented in more than one way: as a rupee amount, a rate per gram or a percentage of metal value. A percentage is not automatically better or worse than a fixed amount. The right comparison holds purity, net gold weight and design complexity constant, then compares the final itemised total.
“Wastage” is a commercial charge label sometimes shown on jewellery quotations. It should never be allowed to disappear into an unexplained total. Ask whether it is already embedded in the metal rate, included in making charges, or added separately. If it is a separate line, ask for its basis in writing.
The primary board’s cost panel gives example making and wastage ranges. It should not be treated as a Gujarat-wide tariff, a statement about every design or a requirement that a seller use those labels. 1 The official GST FAQ instead speaks to the tax treatment of the total transaction value; it does not tell a retailer what its making charges should be. 7
For a plain chain, a delicate filigree piece and a stone-set ring, the labour inputs can differ sharply. The meaningful question is whether the quoted charge is disclosed and whether the quoted metal weight and purity match the article.
Exchange, resale and old jewellery: keep the calculation itemised
An exchange offer is not the same thing as a daily purchase board. When offering old jewellery, ask what purity test or deduction will be used, whether stones and non-gold parts are excluded, how melting or refining is handled, which reference date applies, and whether a separate charge is deducted. Ask for the calculation in writing.
BIS says consumers may sell old hallmarked or unhallmarked jewellery to jewellers after mandatory hallmarking, and it says a consumer can have jewellery tested at a BIS-recognised Assaying and Hallmarking Centre on a chargeable basis. The general FAQ says the listed fire-assay testing charge is ₹200; readers should confirm the current facility, method and charge before using a service. 4 6
If hallmarked jewellery is found to have a lower purity than marked, BIS describes compensation as twice the difference calculated on the shortage of purity for the article’s sold weight plus testing charges. Its consumer page also says an assay report should identify the article. These are official consumer-protection safeguards, not a substitute for retaining the original bill. 5 6
A resale quote can be lower than a purchase invoice because the design labour and other purchase-side charges may not be returned. That is a structural difference between acquiring a finished ornament and valuing its recoverable metal content. It is not a number that can be known from the Gujarat daily board alone.
The ten daily observations: use history carefully
The history widget is limited to actual same-source Gujarat observations from Groww’s published ten-day table. It is not an average of providers and it is not reconstructed from a national series. The 15 October row and 14 October row are therefore directly comparable because both use the same listed source, unit and purity labels. 1
Daily observations describe what that provider displayed on those dates. They do not reveal the exact time at which a local seller changed its board, and they do not separate metal movement from all retail costs. A reader looking at the sequence should first choose the purity and unit, then compare the dated rows, then obtain a live itemised quote if a purchase is being considered.
Do not manufacture an annual return, a city premium or a future path from ten observations. Short histories can be informative for checking day-to-day changes, but they are too narrow to answer broader questions about an individual purchase.
What can move a Gujarat gold reference rate
A regional reference rate can respond to international gold pricing, the rupee’s relationship with relevant currencies, wholesale supply conditions and changes in the source provider’s update process. Retail demand, local logistics and seller-specific charges can affect what an individual invoice looks like. These are mechanisms, not a short-term forecast.
The World Gold Council’s explanation of purity is useful here because price differences between 24K, 22K and 18K are not solely “market moves.” They also reflect the amount of gold in the stated alloy. A reader should avoid interpreting the difference between purity rows as a gain or loss without first controlling for fineness. 8
If two sources differ, first check whether both refer to Gujarat, the same date, the same unit and the same purity. Next check whether either one explains taxes or an update time. Only after those checks should a reader consider store-specific charges. The captured Candere table illustrates why a named Gujarat provider’s figures still require an internal-consistency check before they can be used as a reference. 2
For a model of checking a market statement before repeating it, see how to verify market claims in India. The goal is better source reading, not a prediction about tomorrow’s rate.
A practical Gujarat shopping checklist
Begin with the day’s Gujarat-labelled publisher board only as a reference. Write down its date, source, purity and unit. Then ask the retailer for the item’s purity, HUID where applicable, gross weight, net gold weight, metal rate, making charge method, stone treatment, GST and final total. Photograph or retain the quotation only where the seller permits it.
At the counter, confirm that “per gram” has not become “per 10 grams” in conversation. Confirm that 22 carat means the stated 916 fineness for the item, not merely a category name. Confirm whether the merchant’s rate is fixed for the transaction and for how long. A reference rate cannot answer those store-specific questions.
Keep the invoice. BIS specifically says it is necessary to obtain an authentic bill for hallmarked jewellery and to have details of hallmarked articles in the bill for disputes, misuse or complaint redressal. 4 The invoice should connect the physical item to the commercial terms.
If the explanation of weight or charges is unclear, pause the comparison. An itemised invoice is more useful than a verbal reduction that cannot be checked later. Editorial standards and correction practices are described in TradeGrows’ editorial policy; page-wide limitations appear in the general disclaimer.
Rate limitations and safe use of this page
This page reports a dated, independently checked regional reference. It does not report an offer from a named retailer, an assay result for a particular item, an exchange valuation or a continuously updating intraday feed. The board did not show an exact intraday timestamp, so no such time is implied.
The displayed rate is not adjusted for a reader’s preferred design, purchase size, stone content, delivery terms or exchange conditions. It should be used to ask clearer questions of a seller, not to replace the seller’s dated itemised invoice. The provider-board scope also means that no Ahmedabad or Surat figure has been substituted into an all-Gujarat rate.
Tax information is educational and tied to the cited GST Council FAQ. It is not a statement that a particular seller has applied every invoice component correctly. For a transaction, check the bill and the relevant official guidance current at the time.
