The Power of ₹21/Day
While tracking 10-gram prices is helpful, most everyday earners struggle to buy gold in bulk. That's why Pyllar allows you to start a Daily Gold SIP with just ₹21.
Instead of worrying about high prices or market timing, ₹21 buys a micro-fraction of gold at today's rate. Over months and years, these tiny fractions accumulate into significant wealth, bypassing the stress of lump-sum investments.
What drives gold prices in India?
Gold price in India is not set by any single authority — it's the result of several overlapping forces:
International spot price: Gold is a global commodity priced in USD. The London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) sets a daily benchmark price, which becomes the global reference. India's gold prices start here.
INR/USD exchange rate: Since gold is priced in dollars internationally, a weaker rupee means higher gold prices in India — even if the dollar price stays flat. This is why gold often rises when the rupee depreciates.
Import duty: India imports most of its gold. The government levies import duty (currently around 15%) on gold imports. This adds directly to the domestic price and is a key reason Indian gold prices are higher than international spot prices.
MCX futures: The Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) is where gold futures are traded in India. MCX gold price is the most-referenced benchmark and typically trades within 1–2% of the theoretical import-parity price. The widget above uses MCX as its reference.
Local jeweller margins and state taxes: City-specific prices can vary by 0.5–2% due to local association rates and state-level levies. MCX is the cleanest benchmark for investment-grade gold.
22K vs 24K gold — which should you track?
The answer depends on what you're buying gold for.
24K gold (99.9% pure) is the investment standard. Gold mutual funds, gold ETFs, sovereign gold bonds, and digital gold — all track 24K gold prices. If you're investing in gold for long-term wealth building, 24K is your number.
22K gold (91.6% pure) is the jewellery standard. It's more durable for daily wear since 24K is too soft to hold its shape in jewellery. Jewellers price gold in 22K because that's what they sell.
When you invest in Pyllar's daily gold SIP, your money goes into a SEBI-regulated gold mutual fund that tracks 24K (99.9% purity) gold prices. Your holdings are shown in grams of 24K equivalent in the app. The widget above shows both — track 24K if you're investing, 22K if you're buying jewellery.
Is now a good time to buy gold?
It's one of the most common questions — and the honest answer is: it depends on your goal, but timing rarely matters as much as people think.
If you're buying physical jewellery for a wedding, timing does matter — a ₹500/gram move over three months changes your budget meaningfully. In that case, tracking today's rate makes sense.
If you're investing in gold for long-term savings or wealth building, the research is clear: time in the market beats timing the market. Gold has compounded at roughly 10–12% annually in INR terms over 20 years, but those returns are captured by investors who stayed invested through the ups and downs — not those who tried to buy dips and sell peaks.
The most practical approach for everyday investors: start a daily SIP and let rupee cost averaging do the work. On days when gold is expensive, your ₹21 buys fewer grams. On days when it's cheaper, you buy more. Over years, your average cost stays reasonable without any effort on your part.
