Gold Price In Odisha Today

In summary

 
 
  • Gold prices in Odisha move daily on account of global rates, currency shifts, import duty, and local demand.
  • Festive and wedding seasons across Odisha often bring short-term price bumps due to higher buying activity.
  • A rising gold rate can also mean a bigger loan amount against the same pledged gold.

This page covers the applicable gold rate, gold price calculation, purity checks, investment options, and the factors that determine your gold loan eligibility.

 
 

The gold rate in Odisha is shaped by factors such as international bullion prices, exchange rate fluctuations, import duties, and local market demand. Since gold prices directly influence the value of gold jewellery and coins, changes in the rate can also affect the amount available against a gold loan. Understanding these drivers can help you better evaluate gold price movements and their impact.

How is the gold price calculated in Odisha

The gold price in Odisha is calculated through a series of steps, starting with the international gold price. Here's how the final gold rate is determined:


  • International gold price: Gold is traded globally in US dollars per troy ounce, which serves as the base price.
  • USD-INR exchange rate: The global price is converted into Indian rupees using the current exchange rate. A weaker rupee can increase the gold price in Odisha.
  • Gold purity: The price is calculated per gram and adjusted based on purity. 24K gold is 99.9% pure, while 22K gold is 91.6% pure, so each has a different price.
  • Import duty: Since India imports most of its gold, the applicable import duty is added to the price.
  • GST: A 3% GST is charged on the value of gold, while 5% GST is applied to making charges.
  • Making charges and jeweller's margin: The final price includes the cost of designing and crafting the jewellery, along with the jeweller's margin.

Most jewellers and lenders in Odisha use the IBJA daily benchmark as the reference for the base gold price. While the base rate remains broadly similar across the state, making charges and jeweller margins may vary from one seller to another.

Factors that affect the gold rate in Odisha


The gold rate in Odisha changes every day due to a combination of global and local factors. Understanding these can help you make informed decisions when buying gold or applying for a gold loan.


  • International gold prices: Global gold prices have the biggest influence on the gold rate in Odisha. When international prices rise or fall, local gold rates usually move in the same direction.
  • USD-INR exchange rate: Since India imports most of its gold, changes in the value of the Indian rupee against the US dollar directly affect local gold prices. A weaker rupee generally leads to higher gold rates.
  • Import duty and GST: Government taxes, including import duty and GST, contribute to the final price of gold in Odisha.
  • Local demand: Gold demand often increases during festivals, weddings, and other special occasions. Higher demand can lead to small changes in local gold prices.
  • Inflation and economic conditions: During periods of inflation or economic uncertainty, many investors prefer gold as a safe investment, which can push prices higher.
  • RBI policies and interest rates: Interest rate decisions by the Reserve Bank of India can influence gold demand. Lower interest rates may increase demand for gold, while higher rates may reduce it.

Keeping track of the gold rate in Odisha can help you decide the right time to buy gold or apply for a gold loan. You can also check your gold loan eligibility to estimate how much you may be able to borrow against your gold jewellery.

 

What is the difference between 18K, 22K, and 24K gold?


The karat number indicates how much pure gold a piece contains. A higher karat means higher gold purity, which also affects its price and use. While 18K gold is stronger for everyday jewellery, 22K gold is commonly used for traditional ornaments. 24K gold is the purest form and is mainly preferred for coins and bars purchased for investment.

How can you calculate the value of your gold in Odisha?


You can estimate your gold's value using its weight, purity, and the gold price in Odisha.


  • Check the weight of your gold in grams.
  • Identify its purity, such as 18K, 22K, or 24K.
  • Find the latest gold price in Odisha for the same purity.

Formula: Gold Value = Gold Weight × Gold Price per Gram.


Example: If you have 25 grams of 22K gold and the gold price in Odisha is Rs. 9,500 per gram, the estimated value of your gold is:

25 × ₹ 9,500 = ₹ 2,37,500


This is the approximate market value of your gold. The final gold loan amount depends on the applicable LTV ratio, gold purity, and the lender's valuation.


How do gold rates influence gold investments?


Gold rates can help you decide the right time to invest and choose an option that matches your financial goals. Physical gold offers direct ownership, while Gold ETFs provide a convenient digital investment. Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) combine potential capital appreciation with interest income.

How changes in gold rates influence gold loans in Odisha


The gold price in Odisha plays an important role in determining the amount you can borrow against your gold. When gold prices increase, the value of your pledged jewellery also rises, which may increase your eligible loan amount. Bajaj Finance considers the lower of the previous day's closing price or the 30-day average closing price published by IBJA or a SEBI-regulated commodity exchange to determine the loan amount.


How is gold loan eligibility calculated?


Your eligible loan amount depends on:


  • Gold weight
  • Gold purity
  • Applicable gold price in Odisha on the day of assessment
  • Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio

Only the pure gold content is considered while evaluating your jewellery. Stones, enamel, and other decorative elements are not included in the valuation.


The final loan amount depends on the applicable LTV ratio, the actual purity of your gold, and the lower of either the previous day's closing price or the 30-day average closing price published by IBJA or a SEBI-regulated commodity exchange. The LTV ratio must be maintained throughout the loan tenure and may be revised as per RBI guidelines and lender policies.


The loan amount is determined using the applicable LTV ratio, which varies by loan size. To know more, click here.
