How is the price of gold determined?
Gold prices in India vary due to many reasons, such as international market prices, government tax and rupee fluctuations. Gold is not just an investment means. But it is also an important part of our traditions and festivals. Especially during weddings and festivals its demand increases.
How and why do gold prices change in India?
There is also a purchase and sale by central banks worldwide. Nowadays, the central bank of every country does not have complete storage capacity. Whenever this happens, gold prices fluctuate rapidly. In short, this demand comes from the country’s central banks. When the demand exceeds the expectation, gold prices are increased by the central banks. This has been seen many times and these prices increase to a great extent.
This is the reason for the increase in gold prices.
Cross currency barriers can also affect precious metals. For example, a rapid increase in the dollar may cause a decline in the price of gold. Today, gold prices in India are affected by many factors and there is no one factor that has a major impact. Overall, you can say that many factors are responsible for this.
