22k gold prices at Tanishq & other stores

India is one of the largest consumers of gold, where the metal carries deep cultural and religious significance. In many Indian traditions, using gold is considered auspicious. The yellow metal is often purchased on special occasions such as festivals, weddings, and is also gifted on birthdays. While gold jewellery remains the most popular choice among all forms of jewelleries, buyers now also have access to a wide variety of colours, designs and styles of gold. However, it is always recommended for buyers to buy hallmarked gold jewellery for its purity and quality. In India, at present, two precious metals namely gold and silver have been brought under the purview of hallmarking.

Gold rates may fluctuate sharply in the short term depending on various factors such as geopolitical tensions, currency fluctuations, state tax changes, macroeconomic among others. However, in the long term, the yellow metal is considered the best hedge against inflation.
