How are gold prices calculated in Dehradun
- International gold price: The calculation starts with the global gold price, which is quoted in US dollars per troy ounce.
- USD to INR conversion: The international price is converted into Indian rupees using the current USD-INR exchange rate. A weaker rupee usually leads to higher gold prices in India.
- Per-gram and purity adjustment: The price is converted from per ounce to per gram and adjusted according to the gold's purity. For example, 24K gold is based on 99.9% purity, while 22K gold is based on 91.6% purity.
- Import duty: Since India imports most of its gold, the applicable import duty is added to the base price.
- GST: A 3% GST is charged on the value of the gold, while a 5% GST is applied to the making charges.
- Making charges and jeweller's margin: The final price includes the jeweller's making charges, labour costs, design charges, and profit margin.
- BJA benchmark: Most jewellers and gold loan providers in Dehradun use the daily benchmark published by the Indian Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA) as the reference for the base gold price. This keeps gold rates broadly similar across the city, while making charges and margins account for the price differences between jewellers.

Key factors affecting gold rates in Dehradun
The method used to calculate the gold rate remains the same every day, but the factors that influence the price keep changing. Here are the main reasons why gold rates in Dehradun go up or down:
- International gold prices: The global gold price is the biggest factor. When international prices rise or fall, gold rates in Dehradun usually move in the same direction.
- USD-INR exchange rate: Gold is imported into India and priced in US dollars. If the Indian rupee weakens against the dollar, gold becomes more expensive in Dehradun, even if global prices remain unchanged.
- RBI policy: Interest rate decisions by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) can affect investor demand for gold. Lower interest rates often make gold more attractive, while higher rates may reduce demand.
- Local demand: During festivals such as Diwali, Dhanteras, Akshaya Tritiya, and the wedding season, higher demand in Dehradun and across Uttarakhand can lead to small differences in prices between jewellers.
- Global market sentiment: During periods of economic uncertainty, inflation, or geopolitical tensions, investors often buy more gold as a safe-haven asset, pushing prices higher. When markets are stable, gold prices may soften.
The way gold prices are calculated does not change, but the factors behind them, such as international prices, the rupee's value, RBI policies, and local demand, change every day. That is why the gold rate in Dehradun can vary from one day to the next.
