Gold Price Today In India: Gold prices in India touched a historic milestone on Tuesday, crossing Rs 1 lakh per 10 grams amid a weakening US dollar and rising geopolitical tensions, especially surrounding the US-China trade situation.

The increasing demand for safe-haven assets has driven the price of gold to unprecedented levels.

Global Gold Prices Breach $3,450

In international markets, gold soared to an all-time high of $3,450 per ounce, gaining $80 in a single session. Spot gold briefly touched $3,397.18 per ounce before settling slightly lower at $3,393.49 per ounce. This marks the first time gold futures have crossed the psychological $3,400 mark, showing a sharp rally of about 2.4% in a day. The ongoing uncertainty in global markets continues to support the precious metal.

Indian Gold Prices Close to Rs 1 Lakh Mark

In India, gold prices also witnessed a significant jump on Monday. In Delhi, the price of gold surged by Rs 1,650, bringing it close to the Rs 1 lakh mark per 10 grams. Gold of 99.9% purity was priced at Rs 99,800 per 10 grams, up from Rs 98,150 on Friday. Similarly, gold of 99.5% purity rose by Rs 1,600 to reach Rs 99,300 per 10 grams, compared to Rs 97,700 in the previous session.

So far this year, gold prices in India have gained Rs 20,850 per 10 grams, reflecting a 26.41% increase since December 31 of last year. Analysts cite rising international prices, a weak dollar, and investor demand as key drivers of this surge.
