What is a Troy Ounce? Gold weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The troy ounce (31.1035 g) is the settlement unit of the London and COMEX markets, so it is the number every other quote is derived from. One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams, or 1.00000 troy ounces, which at today's gold spot price works out to — INR.
Where it is used. Bullion bars and coins are struck in 1 oz, 10 oz and 100 oz sizes, and dealer spreads are quoted as a premium over the ounce spot price. The unit is the trading standard in global wholesale markets.
Pricing conventions. Because the ounce is the contract unit, it carries the tightest spread of any weight: retail premiums on a 1 oz coin typically run a few percent, while a 400 oz good-delivery bar trades near spot. Gold is the metal most often traded in these traditional units, because jewellery and savings demand kept the old weights alive long after industry went metric.
Good to know. The troy ounce is heavier than the everyday avoirdupois ounce (28.35 g) — a mix-up of roughly 10% that still catches out first-time buyers.

Buying Gold in India: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per troy ounce, the price you see here is the international XAU spot price converted into Indian Rupee. Physical buyers in India pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Mumbai's Zaveri Bazaar, plus Ahmedabad and Chennai. Buyers there generally watch the IBJA daily rate published for 999 and 916 gold as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Gold carries 3% GST plus an import duty, and jewellers add making charges of roughly 8-25% on top of the metal value. Gold is the deepest of the four precious metals markets, so local retail spreads are usually the tightest and buy-back is easiest. That is why the shop price of gold in INR can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same troy ounce of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in India are family jewellers, national chains such as Tanishq and Kalyan, Sovereign Gold Bonds and Gold ETFs and digital gold apps. The products most often quoted locally include 22K jewellery, gold coins of 8 g and 10 g, 1 tola bars, Sovereign Gold Bonds.
Local conventions. Gold is bought by the tola (11.6638 g) and in 22K (916) purity, with BIS hallmarking now mandatory; demand peaks at Dhanteras, Akshaya Tritiya and the wedding season. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per troy ounce with the live gold price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline INR quote.
