Gold and silver prices in India saw a mild rise on April 14, with rates firming up ahead of the Akshaya Tritiya festival. The occasion, known for gold buying, is already boosting demand in markets across the country.
According to the latest retail rates, 24-carat gold is priced at around ₹93,300–₹93,400 per 10 grams, while 22-carat gold is trading between ₹85,500 and ₹85,700 per 10 grams in key cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, and Kolkata. Silver prices are also holding strong, staying close to ₹2.5 lakh per kilogram.
The slight increase in prices is being seen across most major markets, although small variations exist due to local taxes and demand conditions. Overall, the trend remains steady with a gradual upward bias.
Experts say global factors are continuing to support gold prices. Economic uncertainties and movements in international currencies have kept gold attractive as a safe-haven investment. At the same time, domestic demand is picking up due to the upcoming festival and ongoing wedding season.
Silver is also witnessing consistent interest, supported not just by investment demand but also by its industrial uses.
