What is the price of 1 gram of gold in Kandy?
One gram of 24K palladium costs Rs14,523 in Kandy, and 22K costs Rs13,313 per gram. 18K works out at Rs10,893.
Why is 22K cheaper than 24K in Kandy?
22K gold is 91.67% pure — 22 parts gold to 24 — so it contains less gold by weight than 24K, which is 99.9% pure. That is why 22K is Rs1,210 less per gram here. The alloy makes it harder, which is why jewellery is usually 22K or below.
Is the gold rate in Kandy different from other cities?
The underlying metal price is identical everywhere in Sri Lanka — gold trades in one global market and converts at one exchange rate. What differs city to city is the retail markup: making charges, wastage and the jeweller's own premium. Those are set by each shop, not by the market.
