Types of Gold prices

There are 2 types of prices: 
1.    spot price
2.    futures price.

Fates cost 
This is the cost at which the members in a future contract consent to execute on the date of settlement.

How is the price of Gold Determined in India?


1.    Rupee vs Dollar
Price of gold in USD is taken as the base price and the price of gold is converted into Rupees.
2.    Import duty
Additional Import duty (customs duty plus fee) is applicable to the converted value 
3.    Bullion traders
A Large volume of buying results in decreased price and vice versa.
Indian Bullion Jewellers Association (IBJA), is sort of a consortium of all biggest gold dealers in India. The members account for almost all gold sold in the country. There is no official closing price for gold every day and it fluctuates every second. Traders who offer closing price to their customers use the closing price calculated by their data vendor.


Other Factors influencing gold prices:


1. Supply and Demand
The basic economic principle of supply and demand is a major influencer of all commodity prices. When demand for gold is high and overall supplies of the precious metal are low, gold prices will rise. In the opposite scenario of high supply and low demand, prices decrease. 
2. Market Conditions
Political and economic events shape market conditions, which in turn influence gold prices.
3. Currency Depreciation
When a currency loses value vs other currency i.e becomes weak, investors invest in gold and increase the demand for it, which in turn increase the prices.
