Why prices differ between Indore and Pune
Indian commodity prices vary city-to-city because state VAT on fuel, local jewellers' association markups on bullion, and inland transport costs all stack on top of the wholesale (IBJA / refinery) rate. Generally, coastal cities and refining hubs see lower fuel prices, while gold differences are usually tiny (₹5–50/g) and reflect local market mechanics more than any structural cost.
Frequently asked questions
Why is gold cheaper in Indore than Pune (or vice-versa)?
Indian cities follow rates set by their local jewellers' association (e.g., MJSA in Mumbai, Bombay Bullion Association). Daily IBJA wholesale rates are the same nationally, but local making charges, GST collection mechanics, and small association markups create the small Indore/Pune gap you see above.
Why does fuel cost differ between Indore and Pune?
Petrol and diesel prices vary across Indian states because each state levies its own VAT (some up to ~30%) on top of the central excise duty. Transport costs from refineries also nudge prices in non-coastal cities. That's why the gap can be ₹5–10/L.
