Gold continues to be viewed as a preferred safe-haven asset during periods of geopolitical instability. Escalating tensions involving the United States and Iran, coupled with concerns over global trade and inflation, have supported international bullion prices. While domestic rates have remained relatively stable, analysts believe fresh developments in global markets could influence gold and silver prices in the coming days.

Jewellers say demand remains healthy, particularly during the ongoing wedding season and festive purchases. However, buyers are advised to compare city-wise prices before making purchases, as local taxes and making charges may vary across retailers.

Investors are also closely watching the US Federal Reserve's interest rate outlook. Any signals regarding future rate cuts or monetary policy changes could significantly impact global gold prices, which in turn influence domestic bullion rates.

For those planning to invest or purchase jewellery, experts recommend monitoring daily price movements and verifying rates with authorised jewellers. While gold remains a popular long-term investment and hedge against inflation, short-term fluctuations are expected as global economic and geopolitical developments continue to shape market sentiment.
