India’s gold and silver prices made a huge recovery on Tuesday and Wednesday after plummeting earlier in the week. After a few days of profit booking, investors increased purchasing appetite was the main driver of the recent surge.
Gold futures on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) surged substantially as confidence improved after losses brought on by fluctuations in the US dollar and global market volatility on February 3. The price of silver also increased, showing strong intraday gains. On Thursday, though, both metals prices decreased.
Due to investors profit booking and weak global cues, precious metals saw steep declines on Thursday morning on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), with gold and silver suffering the worst losses. At approximately 9.32 am, gold for April 2, 2026 delivery was trading at ₹1,50,584 per 10 grams, down 0.98 percent, according to MCX iCOMDEX data, while silver for March 5.
Why do gold and silver prices change every daily?
A combination of domestic and international variables cause daily fluctuations in the price of gold and silver in India. Local prices are largely influenced by changes in the rupee US dollar exchange rate and trends in global bullion markets.
Demand for these metals as safe haven assets is frequently increased by inflation expectations, interest rate fluctuations, and general economic instability. Daily fluctuations in gold and silver prices are also influenced by regular changes in supply and demand as well as geopolitical developments.
