In Delhi, 10 grammes each of 22k and 24k of the metal are priced at 46,800 and 51,050 respectively. The corresponding rates in other metros are: 46,700 and 50,950 (Bengaluru), 47,390 and 51,700 (Chennai), and 46,650 and 50,890 (Hyderabad, Kolkata and Mumbai).

In India, gold becomes more expensive if the rupee slides against the US dollar. Its cost also depends on factors such as volatile policies, economic growth etc.

Silver rates in India are in tune with those of gold. If the gold prices go up, silver will follow suit. However, silver is always cheaper than gold.
