Gold Rate Today (12 April 2026): Latest IBJA Gold Rate And Tanishq, Kalyan, Malabar, Joyalukkas 22K Prices

Gold prices on April 12, 2026 remain in focus for jewellery buyers and bullion watchers as the domestic market continues to stay sensitive to recent global volatility. With investors still tracking the post US-Iran ceasefire trend and its impact on bullion sentiment, buyers are closely comparing the latest India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA) benchmark rates with 22K jewellery prices quoted by major branded retailers before making a purchase.

For most consumers, the most practical way to assess today's market is to compare the purity-wise benchmark rates published by IBJA with the 22K jewellery quotes offered by leading chains, since even small changes in the per gram price can influence the final cost on bigger purchases.

IBJA benchmark remains the first check for buyers

Before comparing showroom-level jewellery prices, many buyers first look at IBJA's indicative retail selling rates to understand the broader direction of the domestic bullion market. These benchmark rates continue to serve as one of the most widely followed daily references across major gold purity categories.

Latest IBJA gold rates

• 24K (999 fine gold): Rs 15,289 per gram
• 22K gold: Rs 14,015 per gram
• 20K gold: Rs 12,741 per gram
• 18K gold: Rs 11,467 per gram
• 14K gold: Rs 8,919 per gram

For consumers tracking coins or bars, 24K remains the key benchmark, while 22K continues to be the most closely watched category for jewellery buying.

22K gold prices at leading jewellers

• Tanishq 22K gold rate today: Rs 14,050 per gram
• Kalyan Jewellers 22K gold rate today: Rs 14,010 per gram
• Malabar Gold & Diamonds 22K gold rate today: Rs 14,010 per gram
• Joyalukkas 22K gold rate today: Rs 14,010 per gram

Among the major brands, Tanishq is quoting the highest 22K jewellery rate, while Kalyan Jewellers, Malabar Gold & Diamonds and Joyalukkas remain aligned at the same level.

What buyers should remember

The quoted gold rate is only the starting point for estimating the cost of a jewellery purchase. While the per gram price helps buyers understand the base gold value, the final bill at the store can be significantly higher depending on the design, craftsmanship and pricing policy of the retailer.

Buyers planning purchases on April 12 should also compare making charges, which can vary sharply between brands and jewellery styles, wastage charges on intricate or handcrafted pieces, and 3% GST, which is added over and above the base gold value. It is also important to check the purity category, since 18K and 14K jewellery may be priced differently depending on design, durability and usage.

For this reason, comparing only the headline gold rate is useful, but checking the full billing structure at the store remains equally important before making a purchase decision. With gold still trading at elevated levels, comparing both the latest IBJA benchmark and branded 22K jewellery quotes remains the most practical way to estimate the final spend.
