Gold Prices in Kolkata Hold Steady

In Kolkata, 24-karat gold (999 purity) stood at Rs 12,158 per gram, while 22-karat gold was priced at Rs 11,145 per gram. Despite a subdued performance, gold has risen almost 50 per cent this year, supported by central bank buying, persistent inflationary concerns, and a backdrop of global economic uncertainty.

India’s reliance on imported bullion continues to shape domestic price movements. Since gold is traded in US dollars, fluctuations in the rupee have a direct impact on costs. A weaker rupee increases import bills, while a stronger one provides temporary relief.

For investors and households in Kolkata, gold remains a cornerstone of financial planning and a preferred hedge against inflation. Even as global markets remain cautious, the yellow metal continues to symbolise safety and stability amid changing economic tides.
