Gold Investment Guide for Nepal

Digital Gold vs Physical Gold
In Nepal, you can buy physical gold from local jewelers or digital gold through apps. Physical gold incurs making charges (8-25%), while digital gold is pure 24K investment with no making charges, stored in insured vaults.
Taxation on Gold
Gold jewelry purchases attract 3% GST. If you sell physical gold within 3 years, Short Term Capital Gains (STCG) tax applies. After 3 years, Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) tax is applicable at 20% with indexation benefits.
Checklist Before Buying

18K Gold Prices for Diamond Jewelry in Nepal per Gram

Today's 18K gold rate in Nepal is NPR 19,136.13 per gram. 18K gold (750 purity) is preferred in Nepal for diamond and stone-studded jewelry due to its superior strength and affordable price point.

Nepal's gold market is closely linked to India's, as Nepal imports most of its gold from India and through official customs channels. Gold prices in Nepal are quoted in Nepalese Rupees (NPR) and track Indian IBJA rates with a modest local premium due to import duties and transport costs — the differential is typically NPR 100–400 per gram. The Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers Association (FENEGOSIDA) announces the daily gold rate each morning in Kathmandu, which jewellers across Nepal follow. Asan Tole in central Kathmandu is the oldest and most vibrant gold market, dating back centuries, surrounded by traditional Newari architecture and gold jewellery shops. The Thamel tourist district also has numerous silver and gold jewellery sellers. Wedding and festival gold demand is very high in Nepal — 22K and 24K gold sets are central to Hindu and Buddhist wedding ceremonies. Pashupatinath temple festivals and Teej (a major women's festival) drive significant gold jewellery purchases. Nepal levies customs duty on gold imports, and illegal gold smuggling from India is a known market distortion. Gold investment via physical bars is less common than India due to limited financial infrastructure.
