In 24K and 22K gold, every one of the ten cities lost the same amount, ₹1,690 and ₹1,550 per 10 grams respectively. Only 18K gold showed any spread: Chennai lost ₹1,290, while the other nine cities lost ₹1,270 each. 

These are bullion rates. Jewellery will cost more once making charges, wastage charges and 3% GST are added. GST alone comes to about ₹4,268 on a 10-gram purchase of 24K gold at today’s rate, and about ₹3,912 on 22K and ₹3,201 on 18K for the same weight. 

With Dhanteras and Diwali drawing closer, the fall may tempt buyers back into the market. At ₹1,42,260 per 10 grams, 50 grams of 24K gold costs ₹7,11,300 before making charges and GST, which is ₹8,450 less than on Thursday.

PC Jeweller was the weakest. It opened at ₹15.99 against a previous close of ₹15.97 and touched a high of ₹16.02, then slid steadily to a low of ₹15.27, 4.38 per cent below the previous close. It is at ₹15.39, down ₹0.58 or 3.63 per cent, and below its volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of ₹15.61. 

Kalyan Jewellers India opened at ₹513.00 against a previous close of ₹515.00 and touched a high of ₹513.90 soon after. It then dropped to a low of ₹500.60, 2.80 per cent below the previous close. It is at ₹502.60, down ₹12.40 or 2.41 per cent, and below its VWAP of ₹505.71. 

Thangamayil Jewellery opened at ₹4,620.00 against a previous close of ₹4,630.50, and that opening price turned out to be its high of the morning. Selling then pushed it to a low of ₹4,495.00, 2.93 per cent below the previous close. It is trading at ₹4,522.00, down ₹108.50 or 2.34 per cent, and below its VWAP of ₹4,539.42. This is the third straight fall for the stock, which is now about 5.04 per cent below Tuesday’s close of ₹4,762.00. 

Titan Company held up best. It opened at ₹4,437.30 against a previous close of ₹4,434.00, rose to a high of ₹4,464.80 and then fell to a low of ₹4,391.30, 0.96 per cent below the previous close. It has recovered to ₹4,432.40, down just ₹1.60 or 0.04 per cent, and above its VWAP of ₹4,427.80. 

Gold fell Rs 1,690 per 10 grams on Friday, and all four jewellery counters fell with it, even as the Nifty 50 edged up 0.04 per cent. Titan was nearly flat, while the other three underperformed the index. It is a reversal from Thursday, when three of the four counters rose. 

Order book data showed sellers ahead on PC Jeweller at 66.30 per cent, with 4,14,90,420 shares against 2,10,90,368 on the buy side, and on Thangamayil Jewellery at 57.40 per cent, with 5,491 shares against 4,076. Buyers led on Titan at 59.66 per cent, with 60,146 shares against 40,667. Kalyan Jewellers India was evenly split, with buyers at 50.14 per cent and sellers at 49.86 per cent. 

The rupee was little changed. USD/INR futures for the November 26 contract were quoted at about ₹95.51 around 10:45 am, against ₹95.50 on Thursday, so currency moves do not appear to explain the fall in domestic gold rates.
