Indian Market Insights
In India, gold and silver prices hinge on MCX futures, import duties (currently 6% on gold), and festivals like Akshaya Tritiya ahead. Buyers, for instance, see rates aligned with Delhi at ₹15,960/24K gram, factoring local premiums. Rupee depreciation against the USD boosts prices, as most trading is dollar-denominated.
Factors Driving Prices
Global tensions, US Fed rates under President Trump’s policies, and China’s demand shape trends. Domestically, post-budget profit-booking caused February dips, but rural demand via schemes like PM-KISAN sustains buys. Silver’s industrial 50% usage adds volatility from EV boom.
Investment Tips
Diversify with Sovereign Gold Bonds yielding 2.5% interest or digital gold apps for low entry. Check Hallmark for purity; buy during dips for weddings. Consult jewellers for making charges (5-15%).
Historical Trends
Gold hit ₹17,885/24K gram on Jan 29 but corrected; silver surged 47% in January before cooling. Copper and platinum follow similar inflation-hedge patterns, with platinum up 8% monthly. Long-term, these assets beat fixed deposits amid 6-7% inflation.
Future Outlook
Expect stability with wedding peaks, but watch US elections’ aftermath and RBI gold reserves (over 800 tonnes). Analysts predict gold at ₹16,500 average by March 2026. Silver may rebound to ₹3.5 lakh/kg on solar panel demand.
