While the increases are modest at ₹10 per gram for 22-carat and 24-carat variants in most regions, tracking these regional city-wise rates remains essential for buyers, retail jewelers, and market analysts monitoring short-term commodity fluctuations in India." — Dr. Shishir Gupta, Founder & CEO, StartupLanes
