Gold Price Today in Rohtak – 7 Nov 2026, 1 AM IST

The gold rate in Rohtak today follows the national MCX and IBJA benchmark, refreshed every business day and shown per gram and per tola, the 10 gram unit widely used across Haryana, for 24K, 22K, 18K and 14K gold.

This is a bullion reference rate, the price of the raw metal before a jeweller adds anything. It excludes making charges, wastage, GST and any stone value.

Rohtak's jewellery trade is concentrated around the Subhash Road and old city market, and most established jewellers here quote against the same daily benchmark shown above, since the underlying gold price is set nationally rather than by any individual seller.

A small local premium, typically a modest amount per 10 grams, reflects the cost of moving bullion from Delhi and the working capital cost a local dealer carries on unsold inventory.

The published per gram rate scales linearly to any weight you need. Multiply the per gram figure by the number of grams for the exact purity you are pricing.

For the tola, multiply the per gram rate by 10. A half tola, one tola, five tola and ten tola are the quantities most commonly asked about in local trade, alongside the standard 8 gram and 100 gram benchmarks used in wider comparisons.

Larger weights, up to a full kilogram, matter mainly to bullion dealers and institutional buyers rather than a household making a retail purchase.

The 10 day table above tracks the 22K and 24K per gram rate across the most recent trading sessions, letting you see whether the current price sits above or below its short term average before you buy or sell.

Bullion markets in India trade Monday to Saturday, so the 10 day window typically spans just under two calendar weeks, excluding Sundays and any market holiday.

Zooming out from daily moves, the weekly and monthly trend shows whether gold in Rohtak is in a sustained uptrend, a correction, or moving sideways within a narrow band.

A single day's fall or rise rarely changes the underlying picture. Buyers timing a larger purchase, particularly ahead of a wedding, generally get more useful signal from the monthly trend than from any one day's headline number.

Over multi year periods, gold has broadly kept pace with or outpaced inflation in India, though with sharp intermediate swings rather than a smooth line upward.

For Rohtak households, this longer pattern matters more for jewellery bought as a store of family wealth, carried across generations, than for any single transaction timed around a short term dip or rally.

India does not set gold prices city by city. The base rate flows from the international bullion market, converted through the USD-INR exchange rate, adjusted for import duty, then benchmarked domestically through MCX futures and IBJA's daily reference rate.

Local jewellers in Rohtak price against this national benchmark and add a modest local premium and their making charges on top. The metal price itself is identical, in principle, to what a jeweller in Delhi or Panipat would quote before making charges.

• International bullion prices, driven by US interest rate expectations, dollar strength and safe haven demand
• The USD-INR exchange rate, since a weaker rupee raises the landed cost of imported gold
• Indian import duty and any customs policy change
• Domestic festival and wedding season demand, which can widen or narrow local premiums
• Central bank gold buying, including by the RBI, which shapes medium term sentiment

Rohtak sits within easy reach of Delhi, roughly 70 kilometres southeast, which keeps its bullion supply chain short and local premiums modest compared to more remote Haryana towns.

Demand also spikes seasonally around the wheat harvest settlement period and the wider wedding calendar, which can briefly widen premiums when many buyers compete for stock at the same time.

No one, including Lucira, can reliably predict short term gold price direction. Gold responds to global interest rates, the dollar, geopolitical risk and central bank buying, all of which shift quickly and unpredictably.

Rather than trying to time a bottom, most financial advisors suggest buying gradually, in smaller tranches over time, particularly for a planned purchase like a wedding, rather than waiting for a dip that may not arrive on schedule.

916 hallmarked gold means the piece is 91.6 percent pure gold by weight, the BIS standard for 22 karat jewellery. The number comes directly from dividing 22 by 24 karats and multiplying by 100.

In Rohtak, as across India, 916 is the standard purity for everyday and bridal jewellery because pure 24K gold is too soft to hold intricate work or set stones securely.

24 karat gold is 99.9 percent pure, the benchmark used for coins, bars and the daily rate you see quoted in news and on rate pages. It is too soft for everyday jewellery and scratches and bends easily.

When Rohtak buyers ask for jewellery in 24K, jewellers usually explain that 22K is the practical alternative, since it holds shape and stones while remaining close in purity.

The published gold rate is only the starting point. A Rohtak jeweller adds making charges on top of the raw gold value, then applies three percent GST to the combined total.

A worked example, line by line

The figures below use an illustrative 22 karat rate of 10,000 rupees per gram purely to keep the arithmetic readable. Substitute today's actual rate from the live table above. The piece is a 10 gram 22 karat chain at a making charge of 12 percent.

• Gold value | 10 grams at 10,000 per gram | 1,00,000 rupees
• Making charges | 12 percent of gold value | 12,000 rupees
• Subtotal before tax | gold plus making | 1,12,000 rupees
• GST | 3 percent on the subtotal | 3,360 rupees
• Hallmarking | per piece charge plus tax | approximately 45 rupees
• Final billed amount | approximately 1,15,400 rupees | about 15 percent above bullion value

The same chain across the Rohtak market

• 8 percent, machine made chain from a local family jeweller | approximately 1,11,300 rupees
• 12 percent, standard retail | approximately 1,15,400 rupees
• 18 percent, branded showroom | approximately 1,21,600 rupees
• 25 percent or more, fine handcrafted bridal work | approximately 1,28,800 rupees and upward

Over 17,000 rupees separates the top and bottom rows on the same 10 grams of the same metal, and every one of those quotes is genuinely available within Rohtak.

How GST is applied

In most Rohtak retail invoices the jewellery is billed as a composite supply and 3 percent GST is charged on the combined value of gold and making.

A proper gold invoice protects you at resale and during any dispute. Check every one of these fields before paying.

• Jeweller's GSTIN | confirms a registered, traceable seller
• HUID number | the unique 6 digit hallmark ID for that exact piece
• Purity and karat, stated as 916, 750, 585 or similar | confirms the fineness sold
• Gross weight | total weight including stones and other metal
• Net gold weight | weight of gold alone, after deducting stones
• Rate per gram applied | should match the day's published benchmark plus any disclosed premium
• Making charges, shown separately as percentage or flat fee | avoids a bundled, unclear number
• Stone or diamond charges, itemised separately from gold | prevents stone value being billed as gold
• GST amount and rate | should be 3 percent on the composite value
• Buyback and exchange terms | should be stated on the invoice or a linked policy document, not verbal only
• Return or exchange window | confirms how many days you have to change your mind

The right purity depends on what the piece is for, not on getting the highest number possible.

• 24 karat, 99.9 percent | coins and bars, investment only, too soft for jewellery
• 22 karat, 91.6 percent | traditional Indian jewellery and bridal sets, the Rohtak default
• 18 karat, 75 percent | diamond and gemstone set jewellery, more durable, common in modern designs
• 14 karat, 58.5 percent | everyday, lightweight, western style pieces, least common in traditional local retail

Most Rohtak households buying traditional or bridal jewellery choose 22 karat by default, reserving 18 karat mainly for diamond studded pieces where stone security and durability matter more than maximum gold content.

• Look for the BIS triangle mark, the purity number such as 916, and the 6 character alphanumeric HUID stamped on the piece
• Enter the HUID into the BIS Care app or website to confirm it matches a registered piece
• Ask the jeweller for the invoice with the HUID printed alongside the item description
• For older, unhallmarked family jewellery, get it tested at a BIS registered Assaying and Hallmarking Centre before any resale

Rohtak has BIS registered Assaying and Hallmarking Centres serving the local jewellery trade, where any piece can be independently tested for purity regardless of where it was originally bought.

Use the BIS Care app to locate the nearest registered centre and confirm its registration number before relying on any purity certificate it issues.

KDM gold used cadmium as a soldering agent to join gold components at a lower melting point. It has been phased out across India in favour of BIS hallmarked gold using safer alloys, and is no longer legally sold as new jewellery.

If you have inherited older KDM pieces in Rohtak, they still hold their gold value at exchange, but should be tested at a registered assaying centre rather than assumed to be current purity standard.

Stone set jewellery is priced and billed differently from plain gold. The gold weight, stone weight and stone charges must appear as separate line items, since stone weight is sometimes billed at the gold rate if you do not ask.

Rohtak's bridal jewellery, in line with the wider Haryanvi tradition, often carries meenakari and kundan work with substantial stone content, so always confirm net gold weight separately before comparing prices across jewellers.

Rohtak's jewellery trade is concentrated around Subhash Road and the old city market, home to established local jewellers alongside a growing number of branded showrooms.

Whichever seller you choose, insist on a BIS hallmark, an itemised invoice and a clearly stated buyback policy before paying, regardless of how established or well known the shop is.

Rohtak's jewellery trade benefits from proximity to Delhi and a strong local economy anchored by Maharshi Dayanand University and the city's sporting institutions, supporting a mix of traditional local jewellers and organised branded retail.

Demand tracks the North Indian wedding calendar closely, with a secondary bump around the wheat harvest settlement period each spring, when the district's agricultural income cycle supports steady local buying.

Buying gold jewellery online works well when the seller offers BIS hallmarked pieces, a clear return window and a genuine physical buyback or exchange policy, since you cannot handle the piece before paying.

For Rohtak buyers wanting a wider design selection than local shops carry, ordering online with a documented 15 day return window removes most of the risk of an unfamiliar purchase, and Delhi's showrooms remain within easy reach for in person browsing.

• BIS hallmark and HUID present and verifiable on the BIS Care app
• Rate applied matches today's published benchmark, not an inflated figure
• Making charges disclosed as a clear percentage or flat fee, not bundled invisibly
• Net gold weight stated separately from gross weight on stone set pieces
• GST charged at 3 percent, correctly calculated on the composite value
• Buyback and exchange terms stated in writing, not promised verbally only
• GSTIN and shop registration visible and checkable
• Return or exchange window clearly stated, ideally 15 days or more

Most Rohtak jewellers buy back gold at a percentage of the day's rate, typically deducting a small margin. Always get the offered rate and deduction in writing before agreeing to sell.

For pieces bought from Lucira, the 90 percent buyback and 100 percent lifetime exchange terms apply regardless of where in India you originally purchased, useful for Rohtak buyers who may have bought while travelling or in Delhi.

Gold demand in Rohtak follows the national festival and wedding calendar, with the local wheat harvest income cycle layered on top.

• Akshaya Tritiya, April or May | the single most auspicious gold buying day nationally, high demand and often elevated premiums
• Dhanteras and Diwali, October or November | second major buying window, jewellers often run promotions
• Wheat harvest settlement, March to April | a local income cycle that supports steady demand as farming households receive payment
• Wedding season, November to February and April to June | the heaviest driver of large bridal purchases in Haryana

Buying outside these peak windows, when demand and premiums both ease slightly, is often the more practical strategy if the purchase is not tied to a specific date.

Bank lockers remain the most common secure storage option in Rohtak, though demand can exceed supply at some branches, so it is worth enquiring early rather than after a large purchase.

For gold held at home, a fire resistant safe bolted to a fixed structure, combined with adequate home insurance covering jewellery, is the practical minimum.

Monthly gold savings schemes let buyers pay a fixed amount over 10 or 11 months and redeem the accumulated value, often with a bonus instalment, toward jewellery. They spread the cost of a planned purchase, particularly for a wedding, but tie the buyer to that jeweller.

Lucira's Vault of Dreams scheme works on a similar principle, a 9 plus 1 structure where Lucira contributes the 10th instalment, redeemable against any Lucira jewellery.

• Jewellery | wearable, carries making charges, best for personal and bridal use
• Coins | lower making charges than jewellery, easy to value and resell
• Bars | minimal making charges, purest form for larger investment amounts
• Digital gold | small ticket sizes, held by a regulated custodian, redeemable for physical delivery
• Gold ETFs | traded on stock exchanges, tracks gold price without physical storage concerns
• Sovereign Gold Bonds | government backed, pays annual interest on top of price appreciation, though new issuance has been limited recently
• Gold mutual funds | invests in gold ETFs through a regular SIP, useful for disciplined monthly investing
• Gold futures | leveraged, exchange traded contracts on MCX, suited to experienced traders rather than retail savers

Gold in Rohtak functions as both adornment and financial security, particularly for agricultural households whose income arrives seasonally around harvest and benefits from a store of value that does not depreciate between cycles.

It is liquid almost anywhere in India, does not require banking infrastructure to hold, and can be pledged quickly for a gold loan in a cash emergency, all of which matter for households managing uneven seasonal income.

Gold carries no default risk, unlike a bond or deposit, but its price does fluctuate, sometimes sharply over months. It has historically preserved value over long periods better than most alternatives during periods of high inflation or currency weakness.

For most households, gold works best as one part of a wider portfolio, not the entire savings strategy, a point worth weighing carefully for agricultural families whose gold holdings sometimes represent a large share of total savings.

• Liquidity | gold sells within hours anywhere in India | property in Rohtak can take months to sell
• Entry cost | gold can be bought in small amounts | property requires a large lump sum or loan
• Ongoing cost | gold has negligible holding cost beyond locker fees | property involves maintenance, tax and vacancy risk
• Income | gold generates no rental income | property can generate rent, and Rohtak's university population supports a reasonable rental market
• Divisibility | gold can be sold in exact needed amounts | property is an all or nothing sale
• Price transparency | gold price is published daily and nationally | local land prices are negotiated and less transparent
• Long term appreciation | gold has broadly tracked inflation | property appreciation near Rohtak has benefited from Delhi's expanding orbit

• Gold | low correlation to equity markets, acts as a hedge during stress, no income generated
• Equity | higher long term growth potential, higher volatility, requires market knowledge or advice
• Debt instruments | stable, predictable returns, lower growth, useful for near term goals
• Silver | more volatile than gold, tied partly to industrial demand, cheaper entry point for smaller savers, see the <a href="/pages/rohtak-silver-rate-today">Rohtak silver rate page</a> for today's price

Concentrating family wealth entirely in gold, common historically across agricultural households in Haryana, leaves a household exposed to a single asset class. A mix across gold, equity, debt and some silver spreads that risk more sensibly.

Almost all the gold ever mined still exists in some form, held in vaults, jewellery and reserves, since gold does not corrode or get consumed. New mine supply adds only a small percentage to this stock each year.

This scarcity and durability is part of why gold has held purchasing power over centuries in a way few other assets have, a fact reflected in how Rohtak families have historically treated it as intergenerational wealth.

Gold's return varies enormously by the period measured. Over some decades it has meaningfully outpaced inflation and bank deposit rates, over others it has traded sideways for years.

For jewellery specifically, making charges and GST reduce the effective net return versus holding coins, bars or paper gold, since resale typically recovers only the metal value, not the making cost paid at purchase.

• Physical gold | tangible, wearable, requires safe storage, carries making charges if jewellery
• Gold ETF | paper form, no storage risk, needs a demat and trading account, tracks price closely with minimal expense ratio
• Best fit | physical for wearable, ceremonial and gifting needs common across Rohtak households, ETF for pure investment allocation without storage concerns

Coins and bars carry far lower making charges than jewellery, often 3 to 8 percent versus 8 to 25 percent, making them a more efficient way to hold gold purely for investment.

Buy only from BIS hallmarked, tamper evident packaging with a certificate of authenticity, and keep the original packaging and invoice, since both matter significantly at resale.

Gold futures on MCX allow leveraged exposure to price movements without holding physical gold, but leverage magnifies both gains and losses and requires active monitoring.

This is a trading instrument suited to experienced market participants, not a substitute for the savings or jewellery purpose most Rohtak households have for gold.

• Interest rate | gold loans typically lower, since the loan is fully secured by pledged gold
• Processing time | gold loans disburse faster, often same day, against pledged jewellery
• Documentation | gold loans need minimal paperwork beyond identity and the pledged item
• Risk | defaulting on a gold loan risks losing the pledged jewellery through auction
• Best use | gold loans suit short term liquidity needs, such as bridging a harvest income gap, personal loans suit longer tenures where you would rather not risk family jewellery

Several banks and NBFCs operate gold loan branches in Rohtak, making this a commonly used short term credit option among the district's households.

A small share of global gold demand comes from electronics and dentistry, where its conductivity and corrosion resistance matter, though jewellery and investment dominate total demand.

In Rohtak, gold's primary role beyond jewellery is ceremonial, given at weddings and religious occasions as both adornment and a store of family wealth, and sometimes as a symbolic prize or gift tied to the city's strong wrestling and sporting culture.

Buying gold attracts 3 percent GST on the composite value of gold and making charges. Selling gold later can attract capital gains tax, depending on the holding period and the form of gold held.

Keep every purchase invoice for as long as you hold the piece, since a missing invoice complicates both resale and any future tax calculation.

Gains on physical gold held over 24 months are treated as long term and taxed at 20 percent with indexation benefit. Gains on gold held under 24 months are added to income and taxed at the applicable slab rate.

Retain purchase invoices carefully, since the cost of acquisition used for this calculation depends on documented proof of the original purchase price.

Gold ETFs and gold mutual funds are now taxed similarly to physical gold for holdings acquired after the relevant rule change, with gains taxed based on the holding period. Rules have changed in recent years, so confirm current treatment with a tax advisor before a large transaction.

Rohtak has ancient roots as a settlement along historic trade routes in the Haryana plains, and grew as a district administrative centre through the colonial period, its jewellery trade shaped by proximity to Delhi throughout.

The city's modern growth as an educational hub, home to Maharshi Dayanand University, and its national reputation as a wrestling and sporting powerhouse, have added new layers to its economy alongside its traditional agricultural base.

Weddings remain the single largest driver of gold purchases in Rohtak, consistent with the wider North Indian pattern of substantial bridal jewellery sets given at marriage.

The wheat harvest settlement cycle each spring adds a distinct, locally specific demand driver, as farming households receive payment and often convert a portion into gold as a store of value, alongside steady demand from the city's university and administrative population.

A falling gold price does not reduce what you owe on a scheme instalment already paid, but it does affect the value of jewellery bought earlier if you need to sell during the dip.

For jewellery bought to wear or gift rather than trade, short term price declines matter less than for a purely investment holding, since the piece is not typically intended for near term resale.

The underlying bullion price is national, but local premiums vary with transport distance from a bullion hub, local demand intensity, and competitive dynamics among jewellers in that specific market.

Rohtak's rate typically sits at a modest premium to <a href="/pages/delhi-gold-rate-today">Delhi's gold rate</a>, its nearest major bullion source roughly 70 kilometres southeast, reflecting the added transport cost. For platinum, see the <a href="/pages/rohtak-platinum-rate-today">Rohtak platinum rate page</a> for the same day's benchmark.

Rohtak's gold rate typically runs close to rates in Delhi, Panipat and Hisar, all within the same broad National Capital Region and Haryana bullion supply chain, with only marginal variation between them on any given day.

The gap between any two Indian cities on a given day is typically small, usually well under one percent of the total rate, and driven by logistics rather than any difference in gold quality.

India imports the vast majority of the gold it consumes, since domestic mining output is small. Import duty, currently a significant component of the landed cost, directly affects the base rate every Indian city, including Rohtak, prices against.

Any government change to import duty typically shows up in domestic gold prices within days.

The Gold Monetisation Scheme lets households deposit idle gold with a bank and earn interest on it, rather than storing it unused. Participation nationally has stayed low, partly due to purity testing requirements and the emotional attachment many families have to specific jewellery pieces.

For Rohtak households with substantial inherited jewellery rarely worn, it is worth understanding as an option, even though uptake has been limited so far.

Multiply today's per gram rate for the relevant karat by the exact grams of gold, then add making charges, then apply 3 percent GST to that subtotal.
