Gold prices in the city remained unchanged on December 13, holding at their highest level so far this year. The yellow metal is currently priced at ₹98,960 per sovereign (8 grams) and ₹12,370 per gram.
The ongoing gold rally is attributed to the US Federal Reserve’s much-anticipated interest rate cut and its signal of further monetary easing next year. This has weakened the US dollar and boosted global safe-haven demand. Additionally, the record-low rupee has supported higher domestic gold prices.
Earlier, gold had touched its previous yearly high of ₹97,600 per sovereign (₹12,200 per gram) on October 17. From January 1, when gold was priced at ₹57,200 per sovereign (₹7,150 per gram), prices have surged by ₹41,760, marking a sharp 73% increase.
Meanwhile, silver prices declined by ₹6 to ₹210 per gram (₹2,10,000 per kg). On December 12, silver was priced at ₹216 per gram.
