How are gold and silver prices determined?
The price of gold and silver in India is determined by trading on the futures market. The closing price of the trading day is regarded as the next day’s market price. However, the rates are fixed taking into account some other costs in different cities and then the retailer sells the jewelry by adding a fee.
People always wonder why the goldsmith charges us more even though the market price is low today. Therefore, it is important for you to know that the market price is for the pure metal bar and is not considered as the jewelry rate. Each jeweler charges manufacturing and service costs based on the weight of the jewelry, so the customer has to buy the jewelry at a price higher than the market price.
Difference between 22 and 24 karat gold
24-karat gold is 99.9 percent pure, while 22-karat is about 91 percent pure. Jewelry is made by mixing 9% of other metals such as copper, silver and zinc in 22 carat gold. Although 24 karat gold is the purest, it is very malleable and weak. Therefore, jewelry cannot be made from it.
