GST is levied on metal and making charges together, not on the metal alone — the ordering most bills get queried over. Making charges vary widely by design and jeweller: plain chains sit nearer 8–12%, intricate and stone-set work runs far higher. Enter the figure your jeweller quotes rather than the default. Indicative calculation; the invoice governs.

916 Hallmark Gold Rate Today in Jaipur (22 Carat)

Today's 22 carat 916 hallmark gold price in Jaipur is ₹12999 per gram, which works out to ₹1,29,990 for 10 gram. "916" is simply the hallmark stamp for 22 carat gold: it certifies 91.6% pure gold in the alloy, which is why the 916 rate and the 22 carat rate in Jaipur are always the same number — two names for one price.

A note on a common search that mixes the two up: there is no such thing as 24 carat 916 hallmark. The 916 stamp belongs to 22 carat gold only. Pure 24 carat gold carries the 999 hallmark and costs ₹14191 per gram (₹1,41,910 per 10 gram) in Jaipur today. If a shop offers you "24 carat 916", the two marks contradict each other — ask which purity is actually stamped on the piece.

Every hallmarked ornament sold in India must also carry a six-digit HUID alongside the purity mark. Type that code into the BIS Care app before you pay and it returns the jeweller and the certified purity in seconds — the only check that turns a counter's claim about 916 gold into a verifiable fact.

Purity Hallmark 1 gram 10 gram
24 carat 999 ₹14191 ₹1,41,910
22 carat 916 ₹12999 ₹1,29,990
18 carat 750 ₹10643 ₹1,06,430

Indicative Jaipur metal rates for 2026-10-26, before GST and making charges. 22 carat (916) is the purity almost all Indian jewellery uses; 24 carat (999) is for coins and bars.

Gold in Jaipur: the local picture

Jaipur is not merely a gold market — it is a jewellery civilization. The Pink City has been a world capital of gem-cutting and ornamental craft since Sawai Jai Singh settled the karkhanas three centuries ago, and its Johari Bazaar remains among the most storied jewellery streets on earth. Gold rates here carry a small northern premium over the national base; what makes Jaipur exceptional is everything built on top of the metal.

The city's signature is the marriage of gold with craft traditions found nowhere else at this depth: kundan setting (stones in refined gold foil), meenakari enamel work on the reverse of pieces, and jadau construction — the Mughal-Rajput courtly vocabulary still made by hereditary craftsmen. Layered onto this is Jaipur's role as a global gemstone hub: emeralds and coloured stones cut here feed the polki-and-kundan bridal work that Rajasthani weddings — and increasingly all Indian weddings — prize.

The export dimension matters to retail buyers more than they realize: Jaipur’s workshops serve global houses and international collectors, which keeps craft standards high and creates a two-tier market — export-grade work and tourist-grade imitation — sometimes on the same street. Learning to tell them apart (weight in hand, foil quality, meena detail) is the single most valuable skill a Jaipur gold buyer can acquire, and the good houses will teach it to anyone who asks seriously.

Popular Jewellery Markets in Jaipur

Jaipur's trade concentrates in the walled city's historic bazaars, with a modern showroom corridor beyond:

Johari Bazaar

The legendary street — literally "jewellers' market" — running south from Badi Chaupar, where Jaipur's great jewellery houses and hundreds of traditional counters trade in gold, kundan-meena and gemstones. Bridal jadau depth without equal, prices spanning wholesale-keen to heritage-premium, and the craft conversation available at source. Diligence scales with ambition here: hallmarks for gold, itemized stone details for set pieces.

Tripolia Bazaar & Chaura Rasta

The adjoining walled-city bazaars — lac and bangle traditions, silver and gold counters, and workshops feeding the main trade. Sharper prices on standard weight; the atmospheric route for smaller ceremonial purchases.

M.I. Road

The transitional artery — established houses and emerald-and-jewellery showrooms bridging old-city trade and modern retail, including names that serve the international gem clientele. Certified inventory with tourist-aware polish; verify prices with local-market context.

Vaishali Nagar & C-Scheme rows

New Jaipur's brand showrooms and regional chains — certified 22K and diamond-set inventory at brand charges, serving the city's modern buying without the walled-city immersion.

Gold Buying in Jaipur: Where Craft Sets the Price

Jaipur buying demands a different mental model: in kundan, polki and jadau work, the gold weight is only the foundation — uncut diamonds (polki), gemstones, foil-setting labour and meenakari art carry the value. Two identical-weight pieces can price apart by multiples. The discipline is itemization: gold grams, stone details and craft charges separated on the invoice, both for honest comparison and for the piece's afterlife in insurance, resale or pledge (where only the gold weight lends).

Rajasthani bridal buying centres on the courtly set — rakhdi (borla) for the head, aad chokers, timaniya, bajubandh — commissioned or bought in the walled city with wedding calendars driving demand from Gangaur through the winter muhurats. Plain 22K weight and investment coins trade alongside at rates the bazaar's competition keeps keen; Dhanteras and Akshaya Tritiya peak the calendar as everywhere.

The Jaipur rules, learned the expensive way by others: buy craft where it is made — Johari Bazaar's houses range from tourist-priced to trade-priced within a hundred metres, and a local reference or two visits' patience finds the latter; for set pieces, ask explicitly what is polki versus cut diamond versus glass — the terms carry price gulfs and the good houses answer plainly; and treat meenakari-backed jadau as the heirloom category it is — bought for generations, priced accordingly, never for melt.

What a purchase bills in Jaipur today

Metal: 10g × 22K rate ₹1,29,990
Making charges (12% typical) ₹15,599
GST @ 3% ₹4,368
Hallmarking (per piece) ₹45
Approx. bill total ₹1,50,002

Making charges are the negotiable line — 8–25% by design complexity, softer in lean season. Traditional counters may quote separate wastage on handcrafted pieces; treat it as a negotiation opening. Coins and bars skip making charges (2–6% premia), which is why investment money belongs in coins and ornament money in negotiated jewellery.

Gold loans in Jaipur: what today's rate lets you borrow

Today's Jaipur rate also prices the other side of the counter: pledging instead of buying. At current levels, 22K jewellery supports a gold loan of up to about ₹11,049 per gram at the small-loan LTV tier (85%, for loans up to ₹2.5 lakh) — roughly ₹1,10,490 against 10 grams — with banks and NBFCs across Jaipur disbursing same-day against appraised ornaments, no income proof required.

The rate you pay varies far more than the rate you receive: gold-loan interest runs from PSU-bank floors near 9% to NBFC convenience schemes above 20%. Our gold loan rate today page tracks per-gram advances daily, the gold loan hub compares 18 lenders honestly, and the eligibility calculator converts your grams into a borrowing figure in seconds.

आज जयपुर में सोने का भाव — Gold Rate Today in Jaipur (Hindi)

आज सोने का रेट जयपुर में: 24 कैरेट ₹14191 प्रति ग्राम (₹1,41,910 प्रति 10 ग्राम), 22 कैरेट ₹12999 प्रति ग्राम और 18 कैरेट ₹10643 प्रति ग्राम — कल के मुकाबले ₹8 प्रति ग्राम ऊपर है, और पिछले 30 दिनों में आज सोने का भाव करीब -6.8% उतरा है। यह धातु (मेटल) का रेट है — ज्वेलरी खरीदते समय बिल में मेकिंग चार्ज और 3% GST अलग से जुड़ते हैं, जिसका पूरा हिसाब ऊपर दिया गया है।

जयपुर में सोने का भाव — अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल

आज जयपुर में सोने का भाव क्या है?
आज (2026-10-26) जयपुर में सोने का रेट: 24 कैरेट ₹14191 प्रति ग्राम (₹1,41,910 प्रति 10 ग्राम), 22 कैरेट ₹12999 प्रति ग्राम और 18 कैरेट ₹10643 प्रति ग्राम। यह धातु का भाव है — ज्वेलरी के बिल में मेकिंग चार्ज और 3% GST अलग से जुड़ते हैं। यह पेज रोज़ अपडेट होता है, इसलिए आज सोने का रेट देखने के लिए इसे बुकमार्क कर लें।
जयपुर में 22 कैरेट सोने का रेट प्रति 10 ग्राम कितना है?
आज 22 कैरेट सोने का भाव जयपुर में ₹12999 प्रति ग्राम यानी ₹1,29,990 प्रति 10 ग्राम है। 22 कैरेट (916 हॉलमार्क) में 91.6% शुद्ध सोना होता है — भारतीय ज्वेलरी का स्टैंडर्ड यही है, इसलिए शादी और गहनों का बजट इसी रेट से बनता है। पिछले 30 दिनों में यहाँ भाव करीब -6.8% उतरा है।
जयपुर की कुंदन-मीना ज्वेलरी खरीदते समय क्या ध्यान रखें?
कुंदन-मीना और जड़ाऊ गहनों में सोने का वजन कुल कीमत का छोटा हिस्सा होता है — बड़ी कीमत कारीगरी और जड़े गए पत्थरों की है। बिल में गोल्ड वेट, स्टोन वेट और मेकिंग अलग-अलग लिखवाएँ, और समझ लें कि रीसेल में मुख्यतः सोने के वजन की ही कीमत लौटती है। विरासत और पहनने के लिए यह कला बेजोड़ है; निवेश के पैसे के लिए सादा 22K या सिक्का ही चुनें।
जोहरी बाजार में मोलभाव कैसे करें?
जोहरी बाजार में धातु का भाव सब दुकानों पर लगभग एक होता है — मोलभाव की असली जगह मेकिंग चार्ज और जड़ाई का काम है। पहले दो-तीन दुकानों पर एक जैसे डिज़ाइन का कुल हिसाब पूछें, फिर तुलना के आधार पर बात करें। पर्यटक-भीड़ वाले इलाके में भी हॉलमार्क HUID और पक्का बिल उतना ही जरूरी है — जयपुर की साख कारीगरी में है, पर परख आपकी अपनी होनी चाहिए।
जयपुर में सोने के साथ रत्न (स्टोन) की कीमत कैसे समझें?
जयपुर रत्नों की वैश्विक मंडी है, इसलिए यहाँ सोने के गहनों में जड़े स्टोन की क्वालिटी ऊँची मिल सकती है — पर स्टोन की कीमत सोने की तरह पारदर्शी नहीं होती। बिल में स्टोन का वजन कैरेट में और उसकी कीमत अलग लिखवाएँ; सर्टिफाइड स्टोन हों तो सर्टिफिकेट लें। याद रखें — सोना रोज़ के भाव से बिकता है, स्टोन मोलभाव से; दोनों को एक ही कीमत में गूंथने न दें।

Gold rate in Jaipur — FAQs

What is today's gold rate in Jaipur?
On 2026-10-26's indicative reference: 24K ₹14191/gram (₹1,41,910/10g), 22K ₹12999/gram and 18K ₹10643/gram in Jaipur. These are metal rates — a jewellery bill adds making charges and 3% GST, broken down in the cost section on this page. Jaipur counters quote within a few rupees either side of these references.
What is the 22K gold rate per gram in Jaipur today?
About ₹12999/gram today (₹1,29,990 per 10 grams). 22K is 91.6% fine gold — the standard for Indian jewellery — so its rate always tracks 24K × 0.916. This is the number that matters for wedding and ornament budgets in Jaipur, since almost all jewellery here is 22K or 18K, not 24K.
Why does the gold price change every day?
Gold is priced globally and re-priced continuously: international bullion moves on US rates, inflation and geopolitics; the rupee translates those moves into Indian prices; import duty and taxes complete the landed cost. Jaipur's quotes follow the same national reference daily with a small local premium. Over the last 30 days the rate here has eased about ₹1040/g (-6.8%).
Is the gold rate in Jaipur inclusive of GST?
No — quoted gold rates (this page and jeweller boards alike) are pre-tax metal rates. Your bill adds 3% GST on metal plus making charges, and making charges themselves (8–25% by design) before that. The worked example on this page shows the full stack: at today's rate, a 10-gram 22K purchase bills roughly ₹1,50,002 all-in at a mid-range making charge.
What is today's gold rate in Jaipur for 22 carat 916 hallmark per 10 gram?
Today's 22 carat 916 hallmark gold rate in Jaipur is ₹12999 per gram, so 10 gram costs ₹1,29,990. The 916 hallmark certifies 91.6% purity, which is exactly what 22 carat means — the 916 rate and the 22 carat rate are the same figure. This is the metal price only; a jewellery bill adds making charges and 3% GST on top.
Is there a 24 carat 916 hallmark gold rate?
No — the two marks contradict each other. 916 is the hallmark for 22 carat gold (91.6% pure), while 24 carat gold is stamped 999. Today in Jaipur, 22 carat 916 is ₹12999/gram and 24 carat 999 is ₹14191/gram. If a seller describes an item as "24 carat 916", ask to see the actual hallmark and the six-digit HUID stamped on the piece.
Why is the gold rate in Jaipur slightly above Mumbai's?
A small northern-distribution premium — typically ₹15–25/g — covers logistics from the western import hubs and local trade convention; it stays well under 1% and moves with the same national price daily. In Jaipur specifically, craft charges dwarf rate differences: the city's real price variable is workmanship, not metal.
Where should I buy jewellery in Jaipur?
Johari Bazaar for bridal jadau, kundan-meena and the full traditional trade; Tripolia/Chaura Rasta for smaller weight and atmosphere; M.I. Road for certified showrooms bridging both worlds; Vaishali/C-Scheme for modern brand buying. For significant set pieces, house reputation matters as much as location — Jaipur's best names earned them over generations.
What is the difference between kundan, polki and jadau?
Jadau is the construction technique (stones embedded in heated gold), kundan the refined-gold foil setting around stones, polki the uncut/rose-cut diamonds themselves. A "kundan set" may hold polki, gemstones or glass — with price gulfs between them. Always ask what the stones are and get it invoiced; Jaipur's reputable houses state it plainly.
How do I value a kundan-meena piece against today's gold rate?
Only partially by the rate: gold weight prices off today's 22K figure, but polki, gemstones, foil-work and meenakari labour typically dominate the bill. Insist on itemization — gold grams separately stated — because resale, insurance and gold-loan value flow from the gold content alone. Buy such pieces as art with a gold floor, not as weight with decoration.
Is Jaipur cheaper for gemstone jewellery than other cities?
At source, genuinely — the city cuts and sets for the world, so equivalent kundan-polki work prices below Delhi or Mumbai retail, sometimes substantially. The caveat is variance: tourist-facing counters price the romance. Buy where the trade buys, compare across two houses, and the source-city advantage is real.
