Commodity Prices Today in India — Complete Guide
Commodity prices in India are directly linked to international markets. Gold, silver, and crude oil are priced in US dollars on global exchanges like COMEX and NYMEX, then converted to Indian Rupees using the live USD/INR exchange rate (currently ₹96.19). This means commodity prices in India change not just when global prices move, but also when the rupee weakens or strengthens against the dollar.
Gold Rate Today — 22 May 2026
Today's gold rate in India is ₹142,771 for 22 carat gold per 10 grams and ₹155,750 for 24 carat pure gold per 10 grams (incl. 3% GST). The international gold price is $4,544.20 per troy ounce on COMEX. India is the world's second-largest consumer of gold, importing over 700–800 tonnes per year. Gold prices are highly sensitive to US Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, dollar strength, geopolitical uncertainty, and central bank buying.
Silver Rate Today — 22 May 2026
Silver rate in India today is ₹276 per gram and ₹275,985 per kg for 999 purity silver (incl. 3% GST). Silver has dual demand — as a precious metal for jewellery and investment, and as an industrial metal used in electronics, solar panels, and electric vehicles. Industrial demand growth from the EV and renewable energy sectors has made silver increasingly interesting as an investment.
Crude Oil Price Today and Its Impact on India
India is the world's third-largest oil importer, meeting about 85% of its crude oil needs through imports. Every $10 rise in the crude oil price per barrel increases India's annual import bill by approximately $12–15 billion USD and puts upward pressure on petrol, diesel, and LPG prices. Rising crude prices also push up inflation (CPI) and can widen the fiscal deficit. Watch crude oil prices closely — they are a leading indicator for Indian fuel prices, airline costs, and broader market sentiment.
How Commodity Prices Are Calculated for India
- International price (USD) → fetched from COMEX / NYMEX in real time
- USD to INR conversion → using live interbank USD/INR rate (₹96.19)
- For gold/silver: divide by 31.1035 (troy oz to grams) → price per gram in INR
- Add 3% GST on gold and silver as mandated by Indian tax law
- City differential → local state levies, jewellers association rates, and regional demand push city prices ₹50–200/10g above the national base
How to Use Commodity Prices for Investment Decisions
Commodity prices serve as important macro indicators for Indian investors:
- Rising gold prices → Often signals global uncertainty or dollar weakness. May benefit gold ETFs, sovereign gold bonds, and mining stocks.
- Rising crude oil prices → Negative for oil marketing companies (BPCL, HPCL, IOC) but positive for upstream E&P companies like ONGC. Also increases logistics costs across sectors.
- Rising silver prices → Can benefit industrial companies and silver ETFs. Watch for solar panel and EV sector catalysts.
- Weak rupee (high USD/INR) → Makes all commodity imports costlier, amplifying price rises in INR even when USD prices are flat.
