How to calculate, Gold & Silver, international prices and MCX price, parity and disparity?

General
1

Assume Gold is at $1229 an ounce and Silver at $16.98 an ounce in the international market. How much should the ideal MCX price be?

There is always a difference if I multiply the USDINR rate and try to calculate. So I am assuming there is more to it than just multiplying the USDINR rate with the Gold/Silver $ rate.

Any fixed formula to calculate this parity/disparity.

The MCX price depends on dollar rate. If we see the trend of gold rates in India, we can find that its rising. http://www.paisabazaar.com/gold-rate/
