Gold Prices: On August 14, 2025, gold prices fell in the Indian bullion market. Today, 24-carat gold has become cheaper by Rs 50 as compared to yesterday, although the price still remains above Rs one lakh. In states like Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Rajasthan, the price of 24-carat 10 grams of gold is trading above Rs 1,01,000. At the same time, 22-carat gold is around Rs 92,900 in metros like Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata.
Silver market boom
Unlike gold, the silver market saw a boom today. In the big states of the country, the price of 1 kg of silver has reached Rs 1,16,000, which is about Rs 2000 more than yesterday. This jump has been seen due to increased demand for silver among investors.
Reasons for the fall in gold prices
According to experts, signs of easing global tensions are putting pressure on gold prices. The proposed meeting between former US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin has raised hopes of peace in the Russia-Ukraine war. In such an environment, investors are booking profits by selling gold and turning to other investment options.
Today’s gold prices in major cities
In Delhi, Jaipur, Noida, Ghaziabad, and Lucknow, 22-carat gold is being sold at Rs 93,050 per 10 grams and 24-carat gold at Rs 1,01,500 per 10 grams. At the same time, in Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Patna, 22-carat gold is at Rs 92,900, and 24-carat gold is at Rs 1,01,350.
How are gold prices decided in India?
Gold rates in the Indian market depend on many factors. Gold prices in the international market, import duty, tax, exchange rate of rupee and dollar, as well as the balance of demand and supply, all have a direct impact on the prices. The importance of gold in India is not limited to investment, but its traditional role in weddings and festivals also affects the prices.
It is clear from today’s market trends that even a little stability in the global situation can pull down the prices of gold, while investors’ interest in other metals like silver can increase. In the coming days, international developments and domestic demand will decide what will be the next trend of gold and silver.
