Gold & Silver Prices Fall on 13 Aug 2025: Today, on 13 August 2025, gold and silver prices have declined marginally across the country. According to GoodReturns, 24-carat pure gold is currently selling at around ₹ 1,01,540 per 10 grams, while 22-carat gold is available at ₹ 93,000 per 10 grams. This slight softening has been seen after the rise in recent weeks.
The main reason behind this decline is the reduction in tensions at the international level. News of possible peace talks between the US and Russia has increased investor confidence, which has reduced the demand for gold as a “safe haven” and put pressure on prices.
Slight difference in gold prices city-wise
In Delhi, Jaipur, Lucknow, Noida, and Ghaziabad, 22-carat gold is selling at ₹ 93,090 per 10 grams and 24-carat gold at ₹ 1,01,540. Whereas, in cities like Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru, and Patna, the price of 22 carat is ₹ 92,940, and that of 24 carat is ₹ 1,01,390. Even though this difference may seem minor, this difference in price is important for those who buy on a large scale.
Reasons behind the fall in prices
A major reason for the fall in gold prices is profit booking by investors. After the sharp rise in the recent past, many investors have started selling their gold to take a profit. Also, the strength of the dollar has also reduced the demand for gold. Usually, gold weakens when the dollar strengthens, because international buyers consider it expensive.
Apart from this, stability in global trade has also increased investors’ inclination towards risky investments, due to which the shine of gold has faded somewhat.
Silver prices are also down
Like gold, silver has also seen a decline. Today, 1 kg of silver is being sold at ₹ 1,14,900, which is ₹ 1,000 less than yesterday. The price of silver in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai remains almost the same. The decrease in domestic demand and the fall in the international market have led to this change.
Further trend
Market experts believe that unless there is a major geopolitical crisis, the prices of gold and silver may remain in a limited range. At present, this fall may be a good opportunity for investors to buy, but the further movement will depend entirely on global signals.
