One India One Gold Rate
In India, all leading jewellers procure gold from the same banks at the same international rates. On top of this, they pay the same duties and taxes to the government authorities. And yet customers in different states pay different rates for gold even though they are buying a commodity of standard quality. The only reason for this is rate fixation by local and regional industry bodies.
