New financial year 2026-27 begins with a sharp rise in gold and silver prices across India. Global market trends, wedding season demand, and geopolitical tensions including Trump’s Iran remarks have pushed bullion prices higher again.
Gold and silver prices declined on MCX on March 30, with gold futures falling 0.41% as the US-Iran conflict entered its fifth week. Despite ongoing geopolitical tensions, investors booked profits, weighing on bullion prices.
Gold and silver prices witnessed a sharp decline on MCX, with gold slipping below ₹1.38 lakh per 10 grams and silver hitting a 6% lower circuit. The fall follows weakness in global markets amid rising US-Iran tensions, inflation concerns, and expectations of higher interest rates.
On the morning of February 25, 2026, the price of 24-carat gold in Delhi reached ₹161,940 per 10 grams. Silver prices fell to ₹284,900 per kilogram. The rupee’s weakness and domestic demand pushed up gold prices.
MCX gold prices opened sharply lower and slipped below the crucial ₹1.45 lakh per 10 gram mark, while silver prices cracked more than 3% amid weak investor sentiment.
Gold prices in India have witnessed a sharp weekly rise, with 24-carat gold gaining ₹16,480 per 10 grams, while silver surged ₹40,000 per kilogram. Strong global cues, record international prices, and expectations of US Fed rate cuts have boosted demand for safe-haven assets.
Gold prices in India inched up marginally as bullion markets remained steady near record levels amid global uncertainty. Silver also posted a slight rise, supported by strong industrial demand. Experts say currency movements, interest-rate expectations, and geopolitical tensions continue to influence prices.
Gold prices edged lower at the start of the new week in the domestic market, bringing mild relief to buyers. Despite the dip, gold has posted strong weekly gains. Silver prices also declined, though the metal remains significantly higher on a year-to-date basis.
Gold prices recorded a strong weekly rally, with 24-carat gold rising ₹4,640 per 10 grams, while silver surged ₹19,000 per kilogram. The sharp gains are driven by heightened global uncertainty and increased demand for safe-haven assets.
