In recent times, where gold prices are in the headlines by reaching record high, silver is emerging as a new glowing possibility for investors. The price of gold has crossed ₹ 90,000 per 10 grams for the first time, but analysts believe that silver can prove to be more attractive than investment in 2025.
So far, silver prices have risen to ₹ 1.01 lakh per kg or ₹ 10,100 per 10 grams. While silver is seen as a precious metal on the one hand, on the other hand its industrial demand is also increasing rapidly. This is why experts are looking at it by linking it to the possibilities of getting ahead of gold.
2024: Year was special for silver
According to analysts, traditionally silver has been considered a weak investment option than gold, but this situation is now changing. Silver demand in the area of solar panels, electric vehicles and electronics has increased rapidly.
-
Silver prices rose by 34% in 2024, which is much higher than a 26% increase of gold.
-
The same pattern was also seen in 2020, when silver prices rose by 63% during the Covid epidemic and overtook the gold growth.
Silver is getting support due to fall in supply
For the last four years, there has been a steady decline in silver supply.
-
The silver supply in 2024 recorded a decrease of 200 million ounces (about 5,670 tonnes), which has been considered to be the biggest decline in recent years.
-
The Silver Institute estimates that industrial demand in 2025 may reach 700 million ounces (19,845 tonnes).
This demand is mainly supporting emerging areas such as clean energy, artificial intelligence and semiconductor. Experts believe that this demand is not short -term, but may increase further in the coming years.
Monetary circumstances are also supporting silver
Silver is getting benefits even in the current economic scenario:
-
Low interest rates
-
Anxiety of inflation
-
Weak US dollar
Although these factors also provide support to gold, the low price of silver and industrial utility are making it a better option.
Many investment experts are now advising investors to recover profits in gold and increase investment in silver. Silver prices have been expected to rise by 10-15% in the next 6-7 months.
