Despite this decline, gold remains above the ₹150,000 mark, reflecting ongoing market volatility influenced by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and stronger-than-expected inflation data from the U.S. Spot gold fell 0.4% to $4,695.99 per ounce, while U.S. gold futures for June delivery gained 0.4% to $4,705.30. In the Indian retail market, 22-carat gold was priced at ₹147,959 per 10 grams, while silver was at ₹296,570 per kg.

The overall trend shows that gold prices have risen 16% since January, and silver has seen even sharper increases due to demand and currency fluctuations.
