Gold Rate Today India: On the last day of the financial year, the shine of gold increased, the movement of silver slowed down; Know the latest prices of big cities including Delhi-Mumbai

On the last day of the financial year 2026 i.e. 31st March, a contradiction is being seen in the movement of gold and silver in the bullion market. While gold prices have risen for the second consecutive day, silver prices have fallen after two days of stability. The demand for yellow metal is showing improvement in the major metros of the country including the capital Delhi, while due to global pressure the shine of silver has faded a bit.

Gold prices rise for the second consecutive day

Today, the prices of 24 carat and 22 carat gold have increased by ₹ 10 per ten grams in the bullion market of Delhi. If we look at the data of the last two days, 24 carat gold has become costlier by ₹ 180 and 22 carat gold by ₹ 160. At the end of the financial year, investor interest and buying at lower levels have strengthened gold. A slight improvement has also been seen in the price of 18 carat gold.

Silver prices fall, highest prices in Chennai

Today was a dull day for silver investors. After remaining stable for two days, silver prices in Delhi have dropped by ₹100 per kg. Currently, one kg silver is being sold at the price of ₹ 2,44,900 in Delhi, Mumbai and Kolkata. However, silver is still the most expensive in the South Indian market i.e. Chennai, where the price of one kg has been recorded at ₹2,55,100.

The future of gold: will it be bullish or bearish?

Market experts believe that at present gold is trading much below its record high, which can prove to be a great opportunity for investors. According to George F. Stathopoulak, money manager at Fidelity International, factors such as rising inflation, fiscal pressures and bond market volatility will keep gold strong in the long term. Although short-term fluctuations may continue, the chances of a major decline appear unlikely due to strong buying at lower levels.
