Tue Apr 22 10:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Gold Prices Hit Record High in India; Cheaper in Several Other Countries
**New Delhi, April 23, 2025** – Gold prices in India soared to a record high on Tuesday, exceeding ₹100,000 per 10 grams (including GST and making charges) for 24-carat gold. This unprecedented surge has prompted comparisons with international gold markets.
While India grapples with the highest gold prices globally, several countries offer significantly lower rates. For example, the price of 1 gram of 24-carat gold is approximately ₹10,000 in India, but considerably less elsewhere. In Indonesia, it costs ₹9,523.49, while Cambodia’s price is ₹9,541, and Malawi’s is ₹9,548. Dubai, a popular gold market, offers 1 gram of 24-carat gold at ₹9,551. Even Hong Kong shows a lower price of ₹9,553 per gram.
These figures, based on data from Live Price Of Gold on April 22, 2025, highlight a substantial price difference between India and other nations. The reasons behind India’s exceptionally high gold prices remain unclear but underscore a significant disparity in the global gold market.
