Many reasons behind the rise in gold
There are many reasons behind the current rise in gold prices. Global demand for safe assets has supported the rise in prices amid expectations of further interest rate cuts by central banks. Apart from this, due to increasing tension in the Middle East, gold prices are also increasing. In such a situation, by the end of this year the price of gold will become Rs 2.5 lakh. The level of 79,000 may be crossed.
According to Cadia Advisory, gold prices have increased by 22% this year. The highest increase of 31.85% in gold prices in the last 20 years was recorded in 2011. Earlier in 2008, gold prices had increased by 28.61%. In the year 2020, the price of gold increased by 28.24%.

Gold touched a record high of Rs 53,445 in July 2020. Then in December 2020, a slight decline was recorded in the price and reached close to Rs 50,000. After this, in January 2022, the price of gold fell to around Rs 47 thousand but then a rise was seen.

According to Kedia Advisory, if the government had not given relief in customs duty in the budget, the price of gold would have been Rs 500. 80,000 would have crossed the 10 gram level. It is likely to arrive by the end of this year.
