Gold Rate Today, September 9: Check 18, 22 and 24 carat gold prices in Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and other cities

On September 9, 2026, the price of gold in India saw a slight decline. The rate for 24 carat gold dropped to Rs 15,431 per gram, a reduction of Rs 104 from the previous day. Similarly, 22 carat gold decreased to Rs 14,145 per gram, marking a drop of Rs 95 compared to September 8. The price for 18 carat gold also decreased by Rs 78, now at Rs 11,573 per gram.

Despite a temporary 15% tariff increase, global gold and silver prices fell as international concerns eased. However, ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, particularly tensions between the U.S. and Iran, drove daily price volatility in precious metals. Key cities such as Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune, Vadodara, and Ahmedabad also reported changes in their gold rates on this day.

The geopolitical situation in West Asia escalated after the U.S. targeted Iranian oil tankers, leading to retaliatory strikes and a subsequent ceasefire that ultimately failed to halt the constant missile attacks and threats. This led to a surge in gold purchases as investors sought a safe haven amid the market turmoil.
