City-Specific Prices

Here’s where you could buy the gold and silver: Mumbai and Kolkata saw 24-carat gold at ₹1,43,610 and ₹1,44,990 respectively. Chennai had slightly higher prices, with 24-carat gold at ₹1,44,990 and 22-carat gold at ₹1,31,640. Delhi’s prices were a little different, with 24-carat gold at ₹1,43,760 and 22-carat gold at ₹1,31,790.

Why the Changes?

The price changes were mainly because the US economy was doing well. This made the dollar stronger, and experts thought the Federal Reserve (the group that controls the money in the US) wouldn’t lower interest rates soon. Because of this, investors sold some gold and silver, which caused the prices to drop.
