What factors influence the determination of gold rates?
Gold prices in India are shaped by various factors, including global demand, currency dynamics, interest rates, and government policies. When the value of the Indian rupee depreciates against the US dollar, the price of gold tends to rise, resulting in higher costs for buyers.
On an international scale, factors like global economic growth and the strength of the US dollar against other currencies significantly impact gold prices. Furthermore, the demand for gold as a precious metal plays a crucial role in price fluctuations.
Silver rates on June 20
The price of silver remained steady on Sunday, with one gram of silver priced at ₹73, as reported by the Goodreturns website.
In India, the price of silver is influenced by factors such as gold prices, industrial demand, bulk purchases, and inflation. Typically, when the price of gold increases, it tends to have a similar effect on silver prices as well.
