IBJA publishes the 999rate; 22K (916) is derived from it by fineness — the same arithmetic IBJA uses, so our 22K lands on IBJA’s own printed figure. We show exactly how we get the number.
The Reserve Bank of Indiaprices and redeems Sovereign Gold Bonds on IBJA’s 999 close, and names IBJA in its gold-loan valuation rules. Government money settles on this figure, which is why we publish it rather than an international spot price that India does not trade at.
Who IBJA is, how the poll works, and why a private association ended up setting the national reference — the full explanation is in our IBJA guide.
IBJA prints twice per business day and not at all on weekends or public holidays. So between prints the correct rate is the last one, and on a Sunday the correct rate is Friday’s. We show the last published figure with the date it actually carries rather than restamping it as today’s. An old number honestly labelled is useful; an old number dressed up as today’s is not.
Rate published by India Bullion and Jewellers Association — the benchmark the Reserve Bank of India uses to price Sovereign Gold Bonds.
IBJA also publishes a silver rate. We do not have a licensed feed of it, so our silver rate comes from the MCX exchange instead — labelled as what it is, rather than quietly implied to be IBJA’s.
