For comparison, a single gram of 24-carat gold in Indian domestic markets is currently trading at roughly INR 15,154, heavily weighted by customs duties and local cess taxes. The equivalent pure gold gram bought in Dubai and converted into Indian currency sits at approximately INR 13,510 - offering a noticeable margin of savings for physical buyers travelling between the two regions Dubai Gold Rate Today: 18K, 22K, 24K Gold Prices for June 15, 2026.
