It is noteworthy that this price of gold in the domestic market does not include 3 percent GST and making charge.

It fell to Rs 67,000 after customs duty on gold and silver was reduced following the first budget of Modi 3.0 (Union Budget 2024), while gold prices hit an all-time high for the second month. Now it has decreased again.
Main reasons for gold becoming cheap
The main reason for the fall in gold prices is the strengthening of the US dollar. Despite this, spot gold prices edged up marginally to $2,569.69 an ounce, a marginal rise of 0.1% after five consecutive sessions of decline. Let us tell you that after the election victory of Donald Trump, the US dollar is continuously increasing, due to which the demand for gold as a safe investment is decreasing. In view of the Fed rate cut and the strengthening of the dollar, investors are now looking for options.
As far as other factors are concerned, inflation data in the US and signs of possible easing of inflation control by the US Fed are helping ease the pressure on gold rates. Apart from this, the rate of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin has increased rapidly and has reached $93,000. In such a situation, it has attracted investors. Rahul Kalantri, vice president of commodities at Mehta Equities, says the weakness in gold rates can be attributed to the strong US dollar along with increased investor interest in cryptocurrencies.
