How gold is priced in Nepal

Nepal prices gold per tola (11.664 g) and per 10 grams, for fine gold (chhapawal, stamped 24K bullion) and tejabi gold, which trades slightly below it. The figures here are the international spot price converted to rupees, before customs duty and fees, so the Nepali market rate is considerably higher.

Who sets the daily rate

The Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers' Association (FENEGOSIDA) publishes the official daily buying and selling rates each morning for fine gold, tejabi gold and silver, per tola and per 10 grams. Shops then add making charges (jyala) and any wastage on jewellery.

Imports, quota and customs duty

Gold can be imported only through commercial banks authorised by Nepal Rastra Bank, within a daily quota that was raised from 20 kg to 25 kg a day in October 2025. The 2026/27 budget, presented on 29 May 2026, doubled customs duty on gold from 10% to 20%, removed the 2% luxury fee and added a 0.5% skill promotion fee on gold purchases; the local price jumped by about Rs 20,500 per tola on the next trading day.

Buying gold in Nepal

Demand peaks during the wedding season and around Dashain and Tihar, when Dhanteras is an auspicious day to buy. Ask for the purity, weight and making charge to be written on your bill, and compare the FENEGOSIDA rate with the live spot value here: the gap is mostly customs duty.

Tax and duty information last reviewed October 2026. Rules change — confirm with your dealer or tax authority before a large purchase.

Gold Price in Nepal: FAQ

What is the gold price per tola in Nepal today?

At the international spot price (Oct 23, 2026, 02:45 NPT): about NPR 2,28,373 per tola and NPR 1,95,796 per 10 grams of pure gold; 22K gold is worth about NPR 2,09,190 per tola. That is the international price converted to rupees. The FENEGOSIDA rate in Nepal sits well above it because imported gold pays 20% customs duty (since the 2026/27 budget), and jewellery adds making charges.

How many grams is one tola of gold in Nepal?

One tola is 11.664 grams, and it is divided into 100 lal. Ten grams is about 0.857 tola.

What is the difference between chhapawal and tejabi gold?

Chhapawal (fine) gold is stamped 24K bullion. Tejabi gold is slightly less refined and is quoted a little below the fine gold rate by FENEGOSIDA.

Why is the gold price in Nepal higher than the international price?

Imported gold pays 20% customs duty (since the 2026/27 budget) and imports are rationed through bank quotas. This page shows spot before those costs.

Who publishes the gold rate in Nepal?

The Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers' Association (FENEGOSIDA) publishes the official daily rate.

What is the highest gold price ever in Nepalese rupees?
