Molybdenum Price Per Kg, Broken Down
At ₹8.10 per gram today, molybdenum works out to ₹8,102.69 per kilogram. That's the unit that actually matters in this market — molybdenum moves through the supply chain in kilograms and tonnes, as ferromolybdenum or oxide concentrate, not as a retail gram quote.
- 1 gram: ₹8.10
- 10 grams: ₹81.03
- 100 grams: ₹810.27
- 1 kilogram: ₹8,102.69
- 1 metric tonne: ₹8,102,687.00
The tonne figure is the one that shows up in industry conversation and trade press, since that's roughly the scale a mid-size steel mill or ferroalloy trader deals in when placing an order.

Where the Per-Kg Number Actually Comes From
The starting point is the London Metal Exchange, where molybdenum trades in US dollars. That dollar figure gets converted into rupees at the prevailing exchange rate, then expressed here per gram and per kilogram so it's easy to compare against other metals on this site. A rupee that weakens against the dollar will lift this number even on a day when the underlying LME price hasn't moved.
Ferromolybdenum versus the raw benchmark
Most molybdenum never reaches a steel mill as pure metal. It arrives as ferromolybdenum — an iron-molybdenum alloy that's the standard, practical form for adding molybdenum into a steel melt. Ferromolybdenum pricing tracks the underlying molybdenum content closely, but the actual invoice a mill pays reflects its own contract terms, freight, and the alloy's iron content, not the bare per-kg spot number shown here.
That's worth keeping in mind before quoting this figure in a purchase order. It's a reference point, not a landed price.

Why Per-Kg Pricing Matters More Here Than Per-Gram
Gold buyers think in grams because that's the scale of a typical purchase — a ring, a coin, a small bar. Nobody buying molybdenum operates at that scale. A steel producer sizing an order, a ferroalloy trader quoting a contract, or an analyst tracking input costs for a stainless steel product line all think in kilograms and tonnes, which is why the per-kg conversion carries more real-world weight than the per-gram headline figure.
Tracking the per-kg trend over days and weeks — rather than reacting to a single day's number — gives a much more usable read on where procurement costs are heading for anyone actually buying the metal for production.
Molybdenum Price Per Kg — Common Questions
Molybdenum is priced at roughly ₹8,102.69 per kilogram today, September 17, 2026, based on a per-gram spot rate of ₹8.10.
The London Metal Exchange lists molybdenum in US dollars per unit of weight. That figure is converted into rupees using the prevailing USD/INR exchange rate and then expressed per gram and per kilogram for this page. A weaker rupee pushes the INR figure up even if the dollar price hasn't moved at all.
Scaling the per-kilogram figure up to a full metric tonne gives roughly ₹8,102,687.00 at today's rate — useful as a benchmark reference, though real bulk contracts are negotiated separately and rarely settle at the exact spot-equivalent number.
No. This is a spot-equivalent benchmark figure, not a landed invoice price. Actual duty, freight, and GST on a real molybdenum shipment or ferromolybdenum order depend on the specific transaction, the product form, and current tariff rules — those numbers should come from your supplier's quote, not a benchmark page.
Unlike gold or silver, molybdenum has no city-wise retail network, so there is no meaningful city-by-city comparison to make. The benchmark rate shown here is a national reference point that industrial buyers adjust for their own freight, form, and contract terms.
