Gold Price Today: If you’re planning to buy gold for a wedding or investment, now is the time to stay updated. Starting 30 June 2025, the Indian government will enforce stricter gold import rules, directly affecting how common citizens can bring gold from abroad, especially from Dubai.
Gold Rates Today
Gold prices have climbed again this week. Here’s how different purity levels are priced today:
- 18K Gold: ₹7,733 per gram
- 22K Gold: ₹9,208 per gram
- 24K (Pure) Gold: ₹10,450 per gram
100 grams of pure 24K gold will now cost around ₹10,45,000.
Silver Prices Today
Silver is also trending upward.
- 1 Gram Silver: ₹100.60
- 1 Kg Silver: ₹1,59,600
After a ₹4,000/kg dip last week, silver is now regaining its value.
What’s Changing from June 30?
From June 30, only government-approved agencies or India-UAE trade agreement permit holders will be able to import gold. That means ordinary people can’t bring gold from Dubai freely anymore.
Why the Government Made These Changes
Some importers were misusing the Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) system by labeling gold as platinum to save tax. In Budget 2026, the government announced new HS codes to stop this. Strict identity and permission systems are now in place.
What is TRQ?
Under TRQ, India can import 200 metric tonnes of gold every year from UAE at just 1% duty. This privilege was being misused, prompting the government to tighten control.
Should You Buy Now?
With prices rising and import rules tightening, buying gold before June-end may be a smart move, especially for weddings or investment. Experts believe prices could go higher in July.
