Silver Payal Price Today: How Anklet Cost Is Calculated (2026)
The price of a silver payal (anklet) in India is set mainly by its silver weight multiplied by the day's 925 sterling silver rate, plus a small making charge. A lightweight minimal anklet can start under ₹1,999, while heavier oxidised or bridal payal cost more. Here is exactly how to estimate it yourself.
How silver payal price is calculated
A genuine 925 silver payal is priced on three things: the net silver weight of the anklet (in grams), the current 925 sterling silver rate per gram, and a making charge that covers craftsmanship and finish. In short: Price ≈ (weight in grams × 925 silver rate) + making charge + GST.
Because silver is sold by weight, two anklets that look similar can cost differently — a chunkier or oxidised design uses more metal. Reputable sellers state the exact silver weight on the product page so you can verify the price.
Silver payal price by weight
Assuming an indicative 925 silver rate of about ₹85–95 per gram (silver rates move daily), here is a rough guide for a pair — always check the live rate and the stated weight:
| Minimal single-chain anklet (~8–12 g) | ≈ ₹700 – ₹1,400 |
| Everyday pair (~15–20 g) | ≈ ₹1,400 – ₹2,400 |
| Oxidised / ghungroo payal (~25–35 g) | ≈ ₹2,500 – ₹4,000 |
| Heavy bridal payal (~40 g+) | ₹4,500 and above |
These are indicative ranges for certified 925 silver, not fashion or German-silver imitations, which are cheaper but are not real silver.
What changes the price of a silver anklet
- 1Silver weight
The single biggest factor. Heavier, chunkier or layered designs use more silver and cost more.
- 2Live silver rate
The 925 rate per gram changes daily with the market, so the same anklet can cost slightly more or less week to week.
- 3Making charge
Hand-finished, oxidised or ghungroo work carries a higher making charge than a plain machine chain.
- 4Finish
Anti-tarnish rhodium or 18k gold plating over 925 adds a small premium over raw silver.

Frequently asked
Last reviewed: 17 May 2026 · Verified by the anokhi expert panel
What is the price of silver payal per gram?
A 925 silver payal is priced at roughly the day's silver rate per gram (around ₹85–95/g as an indicative range) plus a making charge. Multiply the anklet's stated weight by the live rate to estimate the metal cost.
How much does a pure silver payal cost?
A pure 925 silver anklet pair typically ranges from about ₹700 for a light minimal design to ₹4,000+ for heavy oxidised or bridal payal, depending on silver weight and finish.
Is silver payal a good investment?
Silver payal is bought mainly for daily and festive wear rather than pure investment, but because it is real 925 silver it retains resale/exchange value based on weight, unlike fashion or German-silver anklets.
Why do two silver anklets have different prices?
Price follows silver weight and making charge. A chunkier, oxidised or ghungroo design uses more metal and more handwork than a plain thin chain, so it costs more even if both are 925 silver.
