On April 16, 2024, gold and silver prices in India showed modest increases, with gold rising by 0.49% in the futures market, trading above ₹150,000 for several sessions. The price for 24-carat gold was reported at ₹154,920 per 10 grams, while 22-carat gold was at ₹142,010. Silver prices also saw an uptick, reaching ₹255,550 per kg. These price movements are largely attributed to the weakening of the US dollar and evolving geopolitical situations, particularly the US-Iran conflict, which has affected investor risk appetite. The Indian retail market reflects these trends, with varying prices across major cities. For instance, in Mumbai, 24-carat gold was priced at ₹154,780, and in New Delhi, it was slightly lower at ₹154,520. The volatility in precious metals' prices is notable, as they have experienced significant fluctuations in recent months, driven by safe-haven demand amidst global economic uncertainties.
