Tellurium Price Today in India
Tellurium is priced at ₹10.43 per gram in India today, September 17, 2026. On its own that number looks tiny, which is exactly why almost nobody in this market thinks in grams — at today's rate, one kilogram works out to roughly ₹10,427.07. There is no coin counter or bullion dealer quoting this figure to a walk-in customer, because none exists. The real market sits one level upstream, among copper refiners who recover it and solar-panel makers who buy it.
That upstream detail matters more than it sounds. Gold's price moves against a backdrop of centuries of exchange history and a deep retail market. Tellurium has neither. It is recovered almost entirely as a byproduct from the anode slimes left over when copper is electrolytically refined, which means its supply is tied to how much copper the world is refining, not to how much tellurium the world happens to want on a given day.

Anyone checking this page daily is not buying physical tellurium bars, because that product does not exist for retail buyers. What they are tracking is a proxy for a specialty industrial material — one that quietly underpins a real, growing slice of the solar power industry.

Why India Tracks a Tellurium Price at All
India has no meaningful domestic tellurium production of its own, so this page is really a window into a global, thinly-traded market rather than a local one. Solar-panel manufacturing that uses cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film technology — a real, established alternative to the far more common silicon-based panel — depends on imported tellurium, so shifts in the global benchmark eventually show up in component costs here, usually with some lag.
A byproduct market, not a mined one
Almost no mining operation anywhere targets tellurium as its primary product. Instead, it is recovered from the anode slimes and residues generated during the electrolytic refining of copper — a secondary stream that a refiner may or may not bother extracting, depending on whether the economics of doing so make sense at the time. That single fact explains most of why tellurium behaves so differently from a metal like copper or aluminium that gets mined for its own sake.
The same byproduct pattern shows up elsewhere on this site. Rhodium comes out of platinum and palladium refining. Gallium and indium ride along with bauxite and zinc processing. Tellurium fits the same mould, just with copper as the parent metal.

Reading Today's Number in Context
A single day's tellurium price rarely tells the full story on its own, which is true of most thinly-traded specialty materials. For a fuller picture than the 10-day window shown above, the site's own tellurium price history page holds the recorded data further back, month by month, with real figures rather than a general description of the trend.
If you arrived here expecting a bullion-style transaction, it is worth resetting that expectation early. There is no tellurium coin, no tellurium bar at a jewellery counter, and no retail trading tradition behind this number the way there is for gold or silver. What exists instead is an industrial commodity benchmark for a rare, byproduct-sourced material that increasingly matters to how much a CdTe solar module, made by manufacturers like First Solar, costs to build.
Tellurium Price Today in India — FAQs
Tellurium is trading at ₹10.43 per gram in India today (September 17, 2026), which works out to roughly ₹10,427.07 per kilogram. The figure tracks a specialty industrial material rather than a bullion exchange rate, since tellurium has no retail coin-and-bar trade the way gold or silver does.
No. Gold and silver carry decades of exchange-traded and retail bullion history behind their daily quote; tellurium does not. What moves tellurium is a thin, specialty industrial market shaped by how much of it copper refiners choose to recover from anode slimes, and how much cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar panel manufacturing needs at any given time.
Nobody buys tellurium in gram quantities off a jeweller's counter. It moves in industrial-scale lots between copper refiners, chemical processors and solar-panel manufacturers, so the kilogram (and, at larger scale, the tonne) is the practical commercial unit, even though the underlying benchmark is stored per gram.
At today's rate of ₹10.43 per gram, 1 kilogram works out to ₹10,427.07. Treat this as a reference benchmark rather than a quoted transaction price — actual tellurium supply deals carry their own purity grade and contract terms on top of this figure.
Chemically, tellurium is typically classified as a metalloid — it sits between metals and non-metals on the periodic table, with some semi-conducting properties. This site tracks and prices it alongside its other metals for market-coverage purposes, but the metalloid classification is worth knowing if you are researching it further.
