3 main reasons for the rise in gold
- Dollar weak – Due to America’s reduction in interest rates, the dollar weakened and the holding cost of gold came down, due to which people started buying it.
- Geopolitical – Due to Russia-Ukraine war and increasing tension in the world, investors are buying gold considering it as the safest investment.
- reserve Bank – Countries like China are filling their reserve banks with gold, they are purchasing more than 900 tonnes in a year, hence the prices are going up.
3 main reasons for the rise in silver
- Industrial Demand – Heavily used in solar, electronics and EV, silver has now become an essential raw material and not just jewellery.
- Trump’s tariff fear – American companies are accumulating huge stocks of silver, prices rose due to reduction in global supply.
- Manufacturers in competition – Everyone is already buying due to the fear of production stoppage, which is why the rise will continue in the coming months also.
Prices may increase further in the coming days
Ajay Kedia, Director of Kedia Advisory, says that the demand for silver is currently on a rise which is expected to continue further. In such a situation, silver can go up to Rs 2.50 lakh in the next 1 year. By the end of this year, the price of silver can reach Rs 2.10 lakh per kg.
If we talk about gold, its demand also remains strong. In such a situation, by next year it may cross Rs 1.50 lakh per 10 grams. By the end of this year, its price can reach Rs 1.35 lakh per kg.
Keep these 2 things in mind while buying gold
1. Buy only certified gold: Always buy certified gold bearing the hallmark of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). This number can be alphanumeric i.e. something like this – AZ4524. Hallmarking shows how many carats the gold is.
2. Price Cross Check: Cross-check the correct weight of gold and its price on the day of purchase from multiple sources (such as the website of India Bullion and Jewelers Association). The price of gold varies according to 24 carat, 22 carat and 18 carat.
4 reasons for different prices of gold in cities
1. Transportation Expenses: Gold is a physical thing, so it costs money to transport it. Most imports are made by air. Then the gold has to be transported to the interior areas. Transportation expenses include fuel, security, vehicle, staff money etc.
2. Gold purchase quantity: The demand for gold varies according to the city and state. South India accounts for about 40% of India’s total gold consumption. Here sellers buy gold in bulk which reduces the prices. Whereas prices are higher in tier-2 cities.
3. Local Jewelery Association: For example, the gold rate in Tamil Nadu is decided by the Jewelers and Diamond Traders Association. Similarly, there are many other associations across the country which decide the prices.
4. Purchase Price of Gold: This is the biggest factor that affects gold rates in different cities. Jewelers who have bought the stock cheaply can charge lower rates.
