Price per carat at Nivara, by size and shape
Solitaires of 1 carat and above are priced by weight, at ₹50,000 per carat in round and ₹55,000 per carat in every other shape, such as oval, pear or cushion. The table shows the diamond alone.
| Solitaire | Round | Any other shape |
|---|---|---|
| 1 carat | ₹50,000 | ₹55,000 |
| 1.5 carat | ₹75,000 | ₹82,500 |
| 2 carat | ₹1,00,000 | ₹1,10,000 |
| 3 carat | ₹1,50,000 | ₹1,65,000 |
Between the steps, multiply the weight by the rate for the shape: a 1.20 carat round is ₹60,000 and a 1.20 carat oval is ₹66,000.

What the rate buys
A per carat figure is only useful with its grades beside it. Every Nivara solitaire is VVS or IF clarity, D or E colour and ideal cut, IGI certified, and the report number is laser inscribed on the stone, so the paper and the diamond are one. Rounds also carry hearts and arrows. That is the standard behind the numbers above, and it is the first thing to ask any jeweller for in writing.
Smaller diamonds
The small stones in pave bands, tennis lines and accents around a centre diamond are VVS or VS clarity, E or F colour. They start from ₹32,000 per carat, and the rate depends on size, colour, clarity and shape, so there is no single figure to quote for them. Their cost is already in the price of the finished piece you see on the product page.
Why per carat figures online run so wide
If you search for a lab grown diamond price per carat in India, you will find a very wide spread of numbers. That spread comes from four things that sit outside the word carat.
- The grade. Clarity and colour move the rate, and a stone with a lower grade costs less. That can be a sensible choice, provided the grades are written down.
- Loose stone or finished piece. A figure for a loose stone and a figure for a ring are not the same thing.
- The laboratory. A report from one lab is not the same document as a report from another, so ask which laboratory certified the stone.
- What the quote leaves out. Gold, making charges and tax are often added after the headline number.
A quote without its grades cannot be compared with another quote. When you weigh offers from lab grown diamond companies in India, ask each one for the carat weight, clarity, colour, cut and report number, and whether the price is for the stone or the piece. We explain why two 1 carat quotes can differ so much in why 1 carat lab grown diamond prices differ.
From the diamond to the finished piece
A finished solitaire is a sum with four parts: the diamond at its rate, plus the gold at the day's rate, plus the making charges, plus tax. On a Nivara invoice each one is its own line. For a 1 carat round solitaire ring, the diamond line is ₹50,000, and the other three lines depend on the design you choose and on the gold rate that day. The rings below carry the same standard, in different shapes and designs, with the price shown as every product page shows it, from around the 14k gold price. Prices move with the gold rate.
Amora minimal solitaire, from around ₹72,000. A single 1 carat round diamond set into the side of a wide, smooth gold band.
Amara oval solitaire, from around ₹85,000. A 1 carat oval diamond raised on four prongs above a slim white metal band.
Mirage solitaire, from around ₹69,000. A 1 carat pear shaped diamond held at the tip of a slim gold band that sweeps up from one side.
Amora sleek solitaire, from around ₹1,35,500. A round diamond of 1.6 carat in all, in prongs above a gold band edged with fine beading.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price per carat of a lab grown diamond in India?
It depends on the grades, so a single market figure means little. At Nivara a solitaire of 1 carat and above is ₹50,000 per carat in round and ₹55,000 per carat in every other shape, VVS or IF clarity, D or E colour, ideal cut, IGI certified. Smaller diamonds start from ₹32,000 per carat and vary by size, colour, clarity and shape.
Why is a shape other than round ₹55,000 per carat?
Shape is one of the things that sets a diamond's rate, and at 1 carat and above our rate for oval, pear, cushion and every other shape is ₹55,000 per carat, ₹5,000 above round. The grades are the same VVS or IF clarity, D or E colour and ideal cut, IGI certified.
How do I work out the price of a diamond between the sizes in the table?
For a solitaire of 1 carat and above, multiply the carat weight by the rate for its shape. A 1.20 carat round is ₹60,000 and a 1.20 carat oval is ₹66,000. This is the diamond alone, before gold, making charges and tax.
Is the per carat price the price of a ring?
No. The per carat rate prices the diamond. A ring adds the gold at the day's rate, making charges and tax, and a Nivara invoice shows each on its own line. Each product page shows the price of that design, and the pieces on this page show a from around price for the 14k gold version.
How soon can I get a solitaire?
More than 2,500 designs are ready to take home across our four showrooms, and stock pieces can be delivered within 48 hours. Pieces ordered from the website usually take 18 to 20 days to deliver, depending on the design, so ask for the ready date of the exact ring.
