On Thursday, March 19, 2026, gold and silver prices in Kolkata took a breather after a continuous upward trend. The yellow metal saw a notable dip in the local markets, bringing much-needed relief to middle-class buyers and jewelry enthusiasts.

Today’s Market Rates in Kolkata (Approximate):

• 22K Gold (10 Grams): Dropped by approx. ₹500, now retailing at ₹67,850 (excluding GST).
• 24K Gold (10 Grams): Pure gold price stands at ₹74,020.
• Silver (1 KG): Silver prices also followed suit, dropping by ₹1,000 to trade around ₹91,000.

Market experts attribute this sudden drop to stabilizing global cues and a slight decrease in domestic demand. With the wedding season around the corner, this price correction is expected to boost sales in the retail sector. Please note that an additional 3% GST and making charges will be applicable at jewelry stores.
