Not all gold is created equal. The purity of gold is measured in carats (K), and its level determines both price and usability in making jewellery.
24K Gold: 99.9% pure (used mostly in coins and bars, not jewellery)
22K Gold: 91.6% pure (commonly used in Indian jewellery)
18K Gold: 75% pure (mixed with other metals for durability)
Gold is certified for purity by BIS Hallmarking under ISO standards. Look for the following imprints:
24K: Marked as 999
22K: Marked as 916
21K: Marked as 875
18K: Marked as 750
Note: 24K gold is too soft for jewellery and is generally sold as coins or bars. Most gold ornaments sold in India are 22K or 18K.
Experts point to a combination of domestic demand, international market fluctuations, and investor sentiment as key drivers of this week’s surge.
Hedge against inflation
High liquidity in Indian markets
Cultural and economic value during festivals
Industrial use keeps demand steady
More affordable entry point than gold
Potential upside during tech growth (batteries, solar)
Always check BIS Hallmark before purchasing jewellery.
Compare city rates to get the best deal.
Prefer invoice billing and registered jewellers.
Avoid buying during price peaks unless for urgent needs (weddings, gifts).
For investment, consider gold ETFs or sovereign gold bonds (SGBs) for better liquidity.
Commodity experts suggest volatility may continue as global markets respond to geopolitical developments and central bank policies.
The Federal Reserve’s interest rate guidance, ongoing oil supply disruptions, and dollar index trends will all play a part in influencing gold and silver prices in the coming days.
The surge in gold and silver prices on June 13, 2025, has once again brought precious metals into the spotlight for both investors and traditional buyers. With 24K gold breaching the ₹1,00,000 mark and silver inching toward ₹1,20,000 in some cities, the metal market is buzzing with speculation.
Whether you’re planning to invest, gift, or purchase for upcoming ceremonies, understanding rates, purity, and market trends is essential. As global uncertainty persists, gold and silver continue to offer both security and symbolic value.
