How we calculate each local gold price

One international benchmark, one local FX rate and standard karat purity factors.

01

Start with XAU/USD

We use the international 24K gold spot benchmark quoted per troy ounce in US dollars.

02

Convert to local currency

The ounce price is multiplied by the current USD-to-local mid-market exchange rate.

03

Apply weight and purity

We divide by 31.1035 for grams, then apply the standard purity factor for each karat.

Frequently Asked Questions

We multiply the live XAU/USD spot price (per troy ounce, refreshed hourly) by the country's USD-to-local-currency exchange rate (also refreshed hourly), then divide by 31.1035 grams per troy ounce. The result is multiplied by 0.9999 (24K), 0.9167 (22K), 0.875 (21K), 0.75 (18K), or 0.5833 (14K) to derive the karat-specific gram price.

Jewellery shops add making charges, design or dealer premiums and local taxes to the underlying metal value. Tax treatment varies by market: UAE VAT is 5%, Saudi VAT is 15%, while current Indian guidance applies 3% GST to the total jewellery transaction value. Our prices are pure-metal spot equivalents, not retail quotes.

Karat measures purity in 24ths. 24K is 99.99% pure gold (bullion grade — soft, expensive, used for investment bars and coins). 22K (91.67% gold) is the most common jewellery grade in the GCC and Asia. 21K (87.5%) is widespread in Saudi Arabia and Egypt. 18K (75%) is the Western jewellery standard. 14K (58.33%) dominates the US mass-market jewellery space because it's harder and cheaper.

Our XAU/USD spot price refreshes every 60 minutes from the FCS API (with Binance PAXG-USD as a free-tier fallback). The local-currency FX rates also refresh hourly. So in practice, the gold prices you see across the site are at most one hour old — comparable to most public retail-bank gold pages but free of paywalls and registration walls.

Yes — XAU/USD is one of the most popular CFD instruments worldwide, available on every regulated retail forex broker (XM, HFM, Pepperstone, FXTM, etc.). You can go long or short with leverage. Note: CFD gold is a derivative, not physical bullion — you don't take delivery of metal. For physical investment, look at allocated-storage vault programmes (BullionVault, Royal Mint, Perth Mint) or sovereign-mint coin programmes.

Three factors: (1) Central banks bought 1,100+ tonnes in 2024 and continued buying in 2025 — a structural shift away from dollar reserves. (2) The Fed delivered three rate cuts in early 2026, dropping real yields below 1% and removing the headwind that suppresses gold during high-rate cycles. (3) Geopolitical risk premia (Middle East, Russia/Ukraine, Taiwan Strait) plus Trump-era tariff uncertainty kept safe-haven demand elevated. See our 'Why is gold rising? 2026 analysis' on the blog for the full breakdown.

No. The figure is an indicative XAU/USD spot equivalent converted to local currency and karat. It is not a jewellery-shop quote, a city buy/sell rate, or a broker CFD execution price. Use this hub for the latest site figure. The gram-conversion blog article explains the formula and does not display a live feed.

How to Read the Live Data

Live price pages are useful for quick context, but they are not an execution platform or a binding quote. Prices may depend on an external data provider and can differ from the quote inside your broker platform because of spread, refresh speed, liquidity and account settings. Use them for monitoring and education, not as a ready trade order.

When comparing gold, currency pairs or spreads, look at the whole picture: trading session, upcoming news, spread widening, margin requirement and contract size. Reading one number without that context can give a false impression of cost or risk.

Before any real trade, confirm the price inside the broker platform, review the contract specification and calculate position size with clear risk management.
