Free Gold Price per Tola Calculator

Convert a current gold rate per gram, 10 grams, troy ounce, tola or kilogram into pure-gold and karat-specific prices per tola. The calculator shows 24K, 23K, 22K, 21K, 20K, 18K, 14K, 10K and 9K estimates in your selected currency.

Gold Price per Tola Calculator

Enter a current gold price and its unit. The tool uses 1 traditional tola = 11.6638038 grams, then calculates common karat and fineness prices.

The tool treats 10 grams and one traditional tola as different weights.
Use a positive number for a premium or a negative number for a discount. Leave 0 for the unadjusted rate.

This tool does not fetch or redistribute a live benchmark. Enter a current price you are permitted to use. Estimates exclude taxes, making charges, fabrication, delivery, insurance and dealer spread unless you include them in the adjustment field.

Gold prices are often quoted per gram, 10 grams or troy ounce, while buyers in parts of South Asia also compare rates per tola. This calculator puts those units on the same purity-adjusted basis and shows the estimated price for one traditional tola across common gold grades.

Quick answer: Enter a current gold price, select its weight unit and quoted purity, and choose your currency. Add an optional premium or discount, then calculate 24K, 22K, 18K, 14K and other gold prices per tola.

How the Gold Price per Tola Calculator Works

The calculator first converts the entered gold quote to a per-gram rate. It normalizes that rate to fine gold using the quoted purity, applies the optional premium or discount, and multiplies by 11.6638038 grams. Each karat price then uses its listed fineness percentage.

Fine-gold price per gram = entered price ÷ grams in selected unit ÷ quoted-purity percentage
Karat price per tola = adjusted fine-gold price per gram × 11.6638038 × karat purity percentage

How Many Grams Are in One Tola?

This calculator uses one traditional tola as 180 grains, equal to approximately 11.6638038 grams. Government of Maharashtra historical weight references list one tola as 180 grains or 11.6638 grams.

Troy grains180 grains
Pennyweight7.5 dwt
One tola is not 10 grams: a traditional tola is about 1.6638 grams heavier. A price quoted per 10 grams must be multiplied by 1.16638038 to estimate the same-purity price per tola.

Gold Price Conversion Formulas

Per gram to per tolaMultiply the same-purity price per gram by 11.6638038.
Per 10 grams to per tolaMultiply the same-purity 10-gram price by 1.16638038.
Per troy ounce to per tolaMultiply the same-purity troy-ounce price by 0.375.
Per kilogram to per tolaMultiply the same-purity kilogram price by 0.0116638038.

These direct shortcuts work only when the input and output use the same purity. The calculator's quoted-purity field handles cases such as converting a 24K rate into a 22K price per tola.

Worked Gold Price per Tola Example

Assume an illustrative fine-gold price of CU 100.00 per gram, where CU means any currency unit. With no premium or discount:

  • Fine-gold price per tola = CU 100.00 × 11.6638038 = CU 1,166.38
  • 24K / 999 price per tola = CU 1,166.38 × 0.999 = CU 1,165.21
  • 22K / 916 price per tola = CU 1,166.38 × 0.916 = CU 1,068.40
  • 18K / 750 price per tola = CU 1,166.38 × 0.750 = CU 874.79
  • 14K / 585 price per tola = CU 1,166.38 × 0.585 = CU 682.33

This is a formula example, not a current gold quote or price forecast.

How to Use a 22K or 18K Gold Quote

If your source gives a 22K price per 10 grams, enter that price, choose “per 10 grams,” and select “22K / 916 quoted rate.” The calculator first derives a fine-gold reference and then produces every karat price per tola. This prevents the 22K purity factor from being applied twice.

Spot Price vs Retail Gold Price per Tola

  • Reference or spot price: generally represents wholesale metal value and may be quoted per fine troy ounce.
  • Bullion price: may include minting, fabrication, dealer, delivery, insurance and product premiums.
  • Jewelry price: may include alloy weight, making charges, wastage, stones, brand margin and taxes.
  • Buyback price: may be lower after assay, refining, handling and dealer deductions.

The premium or discount field applies one percentage adjustment to the normalized fine-gold rate. Use the Gold Jewelry Price Calculator when you need separate making charges and taxes.

Use a current permitted price: gold rates can change during the day and differ by currency, location, product, purity and dealer. This page does not claim to provide a live gold price. Confirm the timestamp and terms of the rate you enter.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many grams are in one tola of gold?
This calculator uses one traditional tola as 11.6638038 grams, equivalent to 180 troy grains. The displayed result rounds according to the decimal setting you select.
Is one tola equal to 10 grams?
No. One traditional tola is about 11.6638 grams. A 10-gram gold rate and a one-tola gold rate should not be compared as if they represent the same weight.
How do I convert gold price per gram to price per tola?
For the same purity, multiply the price per gram by 11.6638038. The calculator also adjusts the result when the entered price purity differs from the output karat.
How do I convert gold price per troy ounce to per tola?
One traditional tola is 0.375 troy ounce. For the same purity, multiply the troy-ounce price by 0.375. Otherwise, select the quote's purity so the calculator normalizes it first.
How is 22K gold price per tola calculated?
Multiply the adjusted fine-gold price per tola by 0.916 for a 22K / 916 estimate. When the entered quote is already 22K, select 22K / 916 as its basis to avoid applying purity twice.
Does this calculator show today's live gold price per tola?
No. Enter a current rate from a source you are permitted to use. The tool converts units, purity and premium but does not fetch or redistribute a live benchmark feed.
Is 24K gold exactly 100% pure?
24K commonly describes pure or near-pure gold, while fineness gives a more precise specification. This calculator shows 24K / 999 at 99.9% and keeps a separate fine-gold reference rate.
Why is a jeweler's price per tola higher than the converted gold rate?
The retail price may include making charges, wastage, stones, taxes, product premium, delivery and dealer margin. A converted metal rate does not automatically include those costs.
What does the premium or discount field change?
It raises or lowers the normalized fine-gold price by the entered percentage before the calculator derives each karat rate. It does not provide an itemized tax or fee calculation.
Is the calculated gold price per tola guaranteed?
No. It is an estimate based on your price, unit, purity and adjustment inputs. Actual quotes may differ because of timing, exchange rates, product details, taxes, fees and dealer spread.
