Gold prices in Kolkata edged lower on July 24 after the sharp gains seen earlier in the week. The 24K gold rate slipped by ₹1 to ₹14,617 per gram, while 22K gold eased to ₹13,399 per gram. Despite the back-to-back decline, prices remain firmly above levels seen in the middle of July.
Kolkata, July 24: Gold prices in Kolkata edged lower on Friday, extending the pullback for a second straight day after the strong rally earlier this week. The decline was marginal, however, with 24K, 22K and 18K gold each losing just ₹1 per gram.
The 24-karat gold rate stood at ₹14,617 per gram, compared with ₹14,618 on Thursday. The 22-karat rate slipped to ₹13,399 per gram, while 18-karat gold eased to ₹10,963 per gram.
For buyers, the ₹1 drop makes little difference to the overall jewellery bill. Gold is still considerably more expensive than it was a week ago, with much of Wednesday’s sharp ₹229 jump in the 24K rate still intact.

Gold Price in Kolkata Per Gram

| 8 grams | ₹1,16,936 | ₹1,07,192 | ₹87,704 |

The quoted rates are indicative and exclude GST, TCS and other applicable levies. The price charged by a jeweller may therefore be higher.
What Would 10 Grams of 22K Jewellery Cost Today?
At today’s rate, 10 grams of 22K gold carries a base value of ₹1,33,990. A jewellery purchase, though, does not end at the metal price. Making charges and GST add to the final bill.
Assuming making charges of 12% and GST of 3%, the estimated cost works out to:
| Component | Amount |
| Gold value | ₹1,33,990 |
| Making charges (12%) | ₹16,079 |
| GST (3%) | ₹4,502 |
| Estimated final amount | ₹1,54,571 |
This is an indicative calculation. The actual bill can change depending on the design, making charges, wastage and pricing policy of the jeweller.

The 10-day movement tells a clearer story than Friday’s ₹1 decline alone. Gold initially struggled for direction, falling to ₹14,253 on July 17, before turning sharply higher.
From that low to the July 22 peak, 24K gold gained ₹398 per gram in just a few sessions. The correction since then has been relatively small, with only ₹34 erased from the peak.
Recent Gold Price Performance
| Particulars | 24K Gold | 22K Gold |
| July 15 Price | ₹14,357 | ₹13,160 |
| July 24 Price | ₹14,617 | ₹13,399 |
| 10-Day High | ₹14,651 (July 22) | ₹13,430 (July 22) |
| 10-Day Low | ₹14,253 (July 17) | ₹13,065 (July 17) |
| Change since July 15 | +₹260 | +₹239 |
Despite the declines over the past two sessions, gold remains noticeably costlier than it was on July 15. The 24K rate is up ₹260 per gram over that period, while 22K gold has gained ₹239.
For someone purchasing 10 grams of 22K gold, the metal value alone is now ₹2,390 higher than it was on July 15.
Why Do Gold Prices Change Every Day?
Daily gold prices in Kolkata are shaped by both international and domestic factors. Global bullion prices are a major influence, while movements in the rupee against the US dollar can change the cost of importing gold into India.
Interest-rate expectations, inflation, central bank buying and geopolitical uncertainty can also influence demand for the precious metal. Since these factors can shift quickly, local gold rates may change even when jewellery demand in the city remains stable.
Conclusion
Gold prices in Kolkata slipped marginally on July 24, with 24K gold at ₹14,617 per gram, 22K gold at ₹13,399 and 18K gold at ₹10,963. Each category was cheaper by ₹1 per gram compared with the previous day.
The latest decline follows Thursday’s ₹33 fall in 24K gold, but the two-day correction has barely dented the rally seen earlier in the week. With 24K gold still just ₹34 below its recent high of ₹14,651, prices remain near the upper end of their 10-day range.
