How is the rate decided?

Gold and silver prices are determined on a daily basis and many factors are responsible for this. These mainly include fluctuations in exchange rates and dollar prices, customs duties and taxes, international market conditions, social and cultural significance of gold in India and inflation and investment outlook.

Since the prices of gold and silver in the international market are fixed in US dollars, changes in the dollar-rupee exchange rate have a direct impact on the price of these metals. If the price of the dollar rises or the rupee weakens, the price of gold in India increases.

Most of the gold in India is imported. In such a situation, customs duty, GST and other local taxes affect the price of gold. Turmoil in the global market (such as war, economic recession or changes in interest rates) has a direct impact on the price of gold . When uncertainty increases in the global market, investors choose safe options like gold instead of stocks or other volatile assets.

In India, gold is not only an investment, but is also associated with tradition and cultural beliefs. Buying gold on weddings, festivals and auspicious occasions is considered auspicious. Therefore, the demand is high, which affects the prices. Gold has long been an option that gives better returns than inflation. When inflation rises or there is risk in the stock market, people prefer to invest in gold. This is the reason why its demand and price always remain the same.
