Tuesday, 3 November 2026 — source checked at approximately 6:08 AM IST. These are indicative online retail quotations, not binding jewellery-shop offers. The source pages display the Indian calendar date but do not provide a separate first-release timestamp; rates may be revised after our observation.

Gold rate today in India: The dated Goodreturns Mumbai listing shows 24K at ₹13,938 per gram, 22K at ₹12,776 per gram and 18K at ₹10,454 per gram. In its own current 10-day series, the Mumbai 24K and 22K figures are each ₹1 per gram above 2 November. That small difference is a comparison within one provider’s revisable series, not a forecast.

Did gold rise since 2 November?
Goodreturns’ Mumbai 10-day historical table lists 24K at ₹13,937/g on 2 November and ₹13,938/g on 3 November, and 22K at ₹12,775/g and ₹12,776/g respectively. This amounts to +₹1 per gram for each purity, or +₹10 per 10 grams in that provider’s historical listing. Historical rows can be revised retrospectively, so we do not treat this as a fixed exchange-traded market close.
As an independent cross-check rather than a substitute, 5paisa’s page labelled 3 November displays 24K at ₹13,937/g and 22K at ₹12,775/g — ₹1 lower than Goodreturns’ current dated 3 November city record. Its 18K figure differs more substantially. We have not averaged the providers, used 5paisa’s separate daily-change series, or described either quotation as the final jewellery invoice rate. This is precisely why a source and observation time accompany every price table.
Gold price history: Day / Month / Year
Tap a period to switch the graph and its numerical table. All values are ₹ per 10 grams. Day uses Goodreturns’ 24K and 22K Mumbai indicative retail history. Month and Year use RBI-derived Mumbai standard-gold bullion averages, 99.5% fineness. These are different price series and purities; do not compare their levels directly.

What today’s figures mean for a jewellery buyer
For a 10-gram 22K ornament in Mumbai, the indicative gold component from the table is ₹1,27,760 before charges. A jeweller’s bill can be higher because of making charges, stones, GST and other applicable components. Ask for an itemised written quote showing purity, net gold weight, rate used, labour charges and taxes; compare final payable amounts for equivalent items rather than comparing the headline rate alone.
Before accepting hallmarked jewellery, inspect the BIS mark, purity and HUID as applicable and keep the invoice. See our gold hallmark and HUID buyer guide and the Bureau of Indian Standards for official consumer information. 22K commonly corresponds to 916 fineness and 18K to 750; do not assume a 24K price applies to a 22K ornament.
Why this is not the IBJA morning benchmark
The India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA) publishes separate purity-specific AM/PM bullion benchmarks, ordinarily after market-office opening, and its site notes that no rates are published on weekends or specified holidays. At the 6:08 AM IST verification, we did not claim a 3 November IBJA AM benchmark. The tables above are Goodreturns indicative retail listings, not futures contracts, an IBJA fixing or shop invoices.
Why gold quotations can differ
International gold trading, the rupee-dollar exchange rate, import costs, local demand and each publisher’s rate methodology can all matter to Indian quotations. None has been independently established as the cause of this morning’s ₹1 change. The most practical response to a small online difference is to check the jeweller’s same-time written quotation, hallmarking and total cost rather than infer a reliable buying signal.
Frequently asked questions
What is the 22K gold rate in Mumbai on 3 November 2026?
Goodreturns’ dated Mumbai listing shows ₹12,776 per gram, or ₹1,27,760 per 10 grams, before taxes and making charges.
How much does 10 grams of 24K gold cost in Lucknow?
Its dated Lucknow listing indicates ₹1,39,530 per 10 grams. Actual shop quotations may differ.
Why are monthly and yearly chart figures not the same as today’s 24K price?
Those views measure historical monthly or annual averages for 99.5%-fineness standard-gold bullion in Mumbai, while today’s city tables use a retail publisher’s 24K/22K/18K indicative quotations. They should not be joined into one price history.
