Rhodium Price — 10-Day Trend
All prices in ₹ per gram · daily rate, updated once per day
Two Precious Metals, Two Entirely Different Price Logics
Gold and rhodium sit at opposite ends of the precious metals world despite both being quoted per troy ounce. Gold is a deep, liquid, centuries-old monetary asset. Rhodium is the rarest and most volatile of the precious metals — an industrial byproduct with no futures market, whose price has at times run to several multiples of gold's. Today's rhodium reference rate is ₹26,198.97 per gram on September 17, 2026.
- Gold's role: monetary asset, safe haven, deep liquid market
- Rhodium's role: auto-catalyst metal, byproduct of platinum/palladium mining
- Key structural gap: rhodium has no exchange-traded futures contract; gold has several

A Price History Gold Has Never Come Close To
Rhodium's price chart reads like nothing else in the precious metals space. It crashed from roughly $10,000 an ounce in 2008 to under $1,000 during the financial crisis, spent most of the 2010s in a wide $600-$2,500 band, dipped below $1,000 again around 2016-2017, and then spiked to a record near $29,800 an ounce in March 2021, according to Johnson Matthey data. That 2021 peak was driven by outages at Anglo American Platinum's Converter Plant (ACP) restricting supply into strong auto-catalyst demand, with no futures market available to cushion the shock — weekly price fluctuations exceeded $3,000 an ounce at points during that stretch.
Why gold's price behaves nothing like this
Gold's market is enormously deeper and more liquid, with globally diversified mine supply, active futures and ETF trading, and steady central bank participation on both sides of the market. Rhodium has none of that infrastructure — its entire physical market is a fraction of gold's size, concentrated almost entirely around South African platinum-group-metal refining.
| Trait | Rhodium | Gold |
|---|---|---|
| Futures market | None | Multiple major exchanges |
| Primary demand driver | Auto-catalyst (industrial) | Investment, jewellery, central banks |
| Supply source | Byproduct of platinum/palladium mining, South Africa-concentrated | Globally diversified mining |
| 2021 record high (per oz) | ~$29,800 (Johnson Matthey) | Roughly $2,000-2,075 range in 2021 |

What This Comparison Actually Tells an Investor
Rhodium trading above gold isn't a sign that it's the "better" metal — it reflects a fundamentally thinner, less liquid, structurally different market that can swing violently on a single supply disruption. Gold's price behaviour, by contrast, is shaped by macroeconomic forces across a market many times larger. Comparing the two headline prices without accounting for that structural gap can be genuinely misleading.

Rhodium vs Gold — FAQs
Rhodium's price is driven by industrial scarcity, not monetary demand. It has no exchange-traded futures contract, its supply comes almost entirely as a byproduct of platinum and palladium mining concentrated in South Africa, and the physical market is exceptionally thin — all of which lets its price move far more sharply than gold's deep, centuries-old market.
No — rhodium's relationship with gold has swung wildly. It crashed from around $10,000 an ounce in 2008 to under $1,000 during the financial crisis, then traded in a roughly $600-$2,500 range through the 2010s, dipping below $1,000 again around 2016-2017 before surging to a record near $29,800 an ounce in March 2021, per Johnson Matthey data.
Outages at Anglo American Platinum's Converter Plant (ACP) in South Africa restricted supply just as auto-catalyst demand stayed strong, and with no futures market to smooth out the shock, rhodium's thin physical market saw weekly price fluctuations exceeding $3,000 an ounce at the peak.
That depends entirely on risk tolerance, and this isn't investment advice. Gold has a mature retail bullion market, deep liquidity, and a monetary role; rhodium is the rarest and most volatile of the precious metals, with no standardized futures market and a price history that includes moves of thousands of dollars in a single week.
Gold's market is enormously larger and more liquid, with diversified global mine supply and constant two-way trading through futures, ETFs, and central bank activity. Rhodium's market is a fraction of that size, supply is geographically concentrated, and there's no futures contract to absorb sudden demand or supply shocks.
