Gold Rate in Rajkot Today
The international gold reference in rupees, with 24K first because that is the purity Rajkot's own searches ask for most — and a clear statement of how far this figure sits below a Rajkot counter price.
No current reference rate to show.
Rather than print a figure that might be days old without saying so, this page shows nothing here. The calculator takes a price you enter and is unaffected.
Sources: gold-api.com and exchangerate-api.com. Neither returned a usable value recently enough to display.
What Rajkot actually searches for
Rajkot follows Ahmedabad's 24K lead but more narrowly — 11,000 against 8,350 — and phrases its queries as "gold price" more often than "gold rate", which across this dataset tends to mark somebody pricing metal rather than shopping for jewellery.
- 59,980 searches a month
- 33 distinct query variants
- leads with 24K (999)
- state unit: tola
| Purity | Searches / month | Share of purity queries |
|---|---|---|
| 24K 999 | 11,000 | 52.9% |
| 22K 916 | 8,350 | 40.1% |
| 18K 750 | 1,300 | 6.3% |
| 20K 833 | 150 | 0.7% |
Calculator
Gold value calculator — Rajkot
Weight, purity and a price in, an itemised value out. Every optional charge is listed on its own line and none of them is applied unless you enter it.
Enter the rate for the purity you select below. A jeweller quoting "₹14,185 per gram" almost always means per gram of 22K as weighed, not per gram of pure gold — this calculator asks which, and will not guess.
What you have to spend, including every charge you enter below. The answer is the weight that adds up to exactly this figure — not the weight before charges are added to it.
Pre-set to 24K because that is the purity Rajkot's own searches ask for most. Change it freely.
Advanced — making charge, wastage, GST, buy-back
All four start empty and stay out of the total until you enter them. There is no universal Indian making charge and no single jewellery tax rule this calculator could apply on your behalf, so it applies none and shows each one you enter on its own line.
A percentage of the value of the gold actually billed, which is how most Indian shops quote it. Whatever you are quoted — nothing is assumed.
Added as extra gold weight billed, which is how wastage is normally charged — not as a percentage of the money.
Whatever appears on your bill, entered by you. This calculator does not assume a rate, because what is charged depends on what is being sold and this page is not tax advice. If your invoice shows 3%, use the chip or type 3.
What a buyer takes off melt value when you sell. Shown as a separate "if you sold it today" figure, never folded into the purchase total.
Enter a weight and a rate to see the value, the pure gold content, and every charge on its own line.
Every purity, converted
All five from the same reference figure, by the karat fraction alone. No premium, no duty, no making charge and no tax is folded into any cell.
Karat, fineness and what is actually stamped
Karat is a fraction of 24 by mass. It is not a quality grade and it has nothing to do with the carat that weighs gemstones — a 22-carat ring and a 2-carat diamond use the same word for two unrelated things.
- 24K 24/24 = 100.0000% gold stamped 999 Pure gold. Coins, bars and bank-sold gold. Too soft for most jewellery.
- 22K 22/24 = 91.6667% gold stamped 916 The default for Indian gold jewellery. Stamped 916.
- 20K 20/24 = 83.3333% gold stamped 833 Less common, but searched for in several northern and central cities.
- 18K 18/24 = 75.0000% gold stamped 750 Stone-set and lighter designs. Stamped 750.
- 14K 14/24 = 58.3333% gold stamped 585 Stamped 585 in India and Europe. The hallmark is the legal minimum, not the karat arithmetic.
Where the stamp and the arithmetic disagree — 14K is 583.33 by the karat fraction but stamped 585 — the stamp is a legal minimum fineness, not a rounding error. This platform keeps the two numbers apart and never swaps one for the other.
Weights used in Rajkot
Gujarat quotes in tola alongside grams. The conversion factors below are exact by definition rather than rounded, which matters on anything heavier than a ring.
Indian gold weights, exactly
| Unit | In grams | Where it is used |
|---|---|---|
| gram | 1 g | Used across India |
| 10 grams | 10 g | Used across India |
| kilogram | 1000 g | Used across India |
| troy ounce | 31.1034768 g | Used across India |
| tola local | 11.6638038 g | North India |
| pavan | 8 g | Kerala and Tamil Nadu |
| bhori (vori) | 11.6638038 g | West Bengal, Odisha and Assam |
The pavan and the tola are different weights, not regional names for the same one: a pavan is 8 g and a tola is 11.6638038 g, so a pavan is about 69% of a tola. The bhori — vori in some places — is the tola under a different name, exactly, with no rounding between them.
Rajkot: common questions
What is the gold rate in Rajkot today?
The figure on this page is the international spot price converted to rupees, with the feed named and the time it was observed printed beside it. It is not the rate a Rajkot jeweller will quote you. A counter price there adds import duty, GST, making charge and the shop's margin, which together put it well above the metal value shown here. No free data source publishes Rajkot's retail rate, so this platform does not print one — it asks you for it and then does the arithmetic exactly.
Which purity does Rajkot ask about most?
24K (999). 11,000 searches a month name 24K against 8,350 naming 22K. That is why the calculator on this page opens on 24K rather than on a national default. Change it freely — every supported purity is converted from the same reference figure by the karat fraction, and nothing else.
What weight unit should I use in Rajkot?
Grams and ten grams are used everywhere in India, and Gujarat's traditional unit is the tola, which is 11.6638038 g exactly. The calculator offers all of them and converts without rounding in between, which matters more than it sounds: a pavan is 8 g and a tola is 11.6638038 g, so treating one as the other is a 31% error.
How do I work out what a Rajkot jeweller's quote really costs?
Take the per-gram rate they quote and the karat it is quoted for, put both into the calculator above, and add the making charge, wastage and tax from your estimate on their own lines. The result separates the metal value from every charge on top of it, so you can see what you are paying for the gold and what you are paying for everything else. Nothing is added unless you enter it.
Source & methodology
Where the numbers come from
- gold-api.com
-
International spot price (XAU/USD, per troy ounce)
A spot quote for unallocated gold on the international market. It is not an Indian rate, not a retail rate, and carries no duty, GST or making charge.
- exchangerate-api.com
-
USD to INR reference exchange rate
A reference mid-rate, not the rate any bank or money changer will give you. The open endpoint updates about once a day; an authenticated key updates more often.
How the rupee figure is produced
One step, and it is arithmetic on two fetched numbers:
24K per gram (₹) = spot (USD per troy ounce) × USD/INR ÷ 31.1034768
31.1034768 g is the troy ounce, exactly, by definition — 480 grains of 64.79891 mg each. Nothing is added, rounded or adjusted in that line.
How the other purities are produced
By the karat fraction and nothing else: a karat figure is the 24K figure multiplied by karat ÷ 24. 22K is 22/24 = 91.6667% of the 24K number, 18K is 75%, 14K is 58.3333%. That is a purity conversion. It does not include a retail premium, a jeweller's margin, a making charge or any tax, and this platform never folds any of those into a rate.
A hallmark number is not the same thing as the karat arithmetic and is not substituted for it. 14K is 58.333% gold by the karat definition and is stamped 585; 22K is 91.667% and is stamped 916. Both numbers appear on the cards above, labelled separately.
What this platform does not have
A retail gold rate for Rajkot, or for any other Indian city. There is no free, redistributable feed of Indian jewellers' counter prices, and the gap between the international figure above and what a shop actually charges is large — import duty, GST, making charge and margin between them put it well into double-digit percentages. Nudging the reference number by a plausible-looking amount and calling the result a local rate would be inventing data, so this platform does not do it. It asks you for the number instead, and then does the arithmetic exactly.
It also has no per-city variation of its own. The reference figure is national — international, in fact — and the same on every page here. What differs page to page is the local unit, the purity your area actually asks for, and the context; not a manufactured local price.
Update schedule and failure behaviour
A scheduled job fetches both sources at most once an hour and stores the result only if it passes structure, type, range, timestamp and step-size checks. A reading that fails any of them is discarded and the previous good one is kept — bad data never overwrites good data.
Past 2 hours the page stops calling a figure current and labels it a previous reading. Past 72 hours it stops showing the figure at all and the calculator switches to your own price. Failures are logged server-side. At no point is a value generated, estimated or carried forward silently.
