Gold, silver rates on April 13: Gold and silver prices in India on April 13, 2026 remained largely steady with minor fluctuations across major cities, even as global markets reacted to geopolitical tensions in West Asia and mixed signals from the US dollar. Precious metals, which are traditionally considered safe-haven assets, have not shown sharp upside, indicating cautious investor sentiment and stable domestic demand.
As per the latest retail market rates, 24-carat gold is trading in the range of ₹15,150–₹15,220 per gram, while 22-carat gold is priced between ₹13,890–₹13,950 per gram across major cities. Silver prices are hovering around ₹2,38,000–₹2,39,800 per kilogram in the domestic bullion market. Prices vary slightly across cities due to local taxes, transportation costs, and jewellers’ margins.
