Chennai comes out on top among the major metros once again, while Delhi remains the cheapest place to buy, a trend that’s stuck around for a while now.
Silver Rate Today
Silver isn’t moving much either, with the 999 fine variety going for around Rs 236 per gram, or Rs 2,36,020 per kilogram today, per Bullions.co.in. The 925 sterling variant was priced at Rs 2,18,319 per kilogram. Much like gold, silver prices usually take their cue from what’s happening in global bullion markets and how the rupee is faring against the dollar, so a sharp move on either front tends to show up pretty quickly in local rates.

How Prices Have Shifted Recently
Zooming out a bit, gold has actually slipped close to 4 percent over the past week even though today’s rate barely budged, though it’s still sitting a massive 42 percent higher than it was this time last year. Silver tells a similar story, down roughly 2 percent over the week but up close to 88 percent compared to a year ago, reflecting just how sharply both metals have climbed over the past twelve months.
Before You Buy
These figures are indicative base rates and don’t factor in GST, making charges, or any additional levies your jeweller might add. It’s always worth confirming the final invoice price at the counter, since the gap between the quoted rate and what you actually pay can be sizeable once these charges are added in.
