Quality

Ruby price in Indian remains exponentially high for best Indian Rubies. To decide the quality of the Manik Ratna, it is assessed minutely based on colour and clarity. Hue along with tone and saturation make the most prominent impact on the price of a Ruby. To be regarded as a high worth Indian Ruby gem, it must have good consistency in saturation. The most exceptional Indian Rubies exhibit a pure, vivid red colour, also referred to as “pigeon blood colour”. Vigorous red and deep pink are the other two shades that command high “Indian Ruby Value per carat” in the market. Clarity Manik Gemstones tend to have inclusions. Eye clean Rubies reflect better clarity and are rare to find. An Indian ruby gemstone with inclusions somehow assures of its originality.

If you are planning to buy a Ruby for yourself, beware of the malpractices that prevail in the market. Many synthetic rubies i.e, Rubies created in the laboratories are sold in the market in the name of original Rubies to maximize profit. The difference between the two is not apparent from the naked Eyes. Rubies are also treated to enhance colour. A natural Indian ruby is astrologically more beneficial than a treated one. If you plan to buy solely for jewellery purposes, then heated rubies look even more aesthetically appealing.

Prices

Rubies are rarer than diamonds because of the rareness and high global demand, each high-quality Indian Ruby piece is priced separately to match its worth. The price varies highly for the same carat weight range as well, mainly due to the variation in the colour and clarity of the gemstone.

•         Clarity

No Ruby comes exclusive of inclusions. Eye-clean Indian Rubies are rarely found so some amount of inclusions is acceptable when it comes to rubies as it one of their natural features. The best quality Indian ruby price per carat can be extremely high.

•         Colour

Vivid red colour Rubies manage to derive a high price. Talking about the “pigeon blood ruby price”, there is no particular range for it and so the price can be really high. Be it a minor or significant change in the colour (from deep red to pink to reddish-brown), it can switch the value of Indian ruby drastically.

•         Cut

Gemstones are expensive, and gem cutters always work hard to reduce stone wastage while shaping or refining the rubies. There is more wastage in a faceted cut ruby than a round or a cabochon, and therefore, faceted ones cost more.

•         Carat Weight

Rubies are seldom found in large carats. Therefore, the old Indian ruby worth per carat grows greatly for those with two or more carat weight.

•         Treatment

Rubies usually go under treatment to enhance colour saturation. Unheated Indian ruby is relatively more expensive than the treated one. To ensure excellence and value, it is suggested to look for certified gemstones with extensive information about the origin, colour, and clarity mentioned on the certification.

Eye-clean or Rubies with minimum inclusions and deep red colour can easily range between ₹1,00,000 to ₹6,00,000 per carat ($1,400 approx. to $7,800 approx.) in the market, even more.
