Gold and silver prices have once again seen a rise in the month of April. According to the data of India Bullion and Jewelers Association, the price of 24 carat gold has increased by Rs 2,854, after which it has reached Rs 1.53 lakh per 10 grams. Earlier on April 13, gold was at the level of Rs 1.50 lakh per 10 grams.
There has also been a strong rise in the prices of silver. One kg of silver has become costlier by Rs 12,038 and reached Rs 2.49 lakh per kg. Earlier on Monday, its price was Rs 2.37 lakh per kg.
However, if we look at the trend of the entire year, huge fluctuations have been seen in both gold and silver. On January 29, 2026, gold made an all-time high of Rs 1.76 lakh per 10 grams and silver made an all-time high of Rs 3.86 lakh per kg. At that time, the prices had increased due to global uncertainties and increasing interest of investors towards safe investments.
But after this, the market trend suddenly changed at the end of February. On February 28, the market started falling after the news of increasing tension and war between Iran and America and Israel. This geopolitical tension had an impact on the international markets, leading to a decline in the prices of precious metals.
During the last 47 days, the price of gold has fallen by Rs 6,148, while silver has become cheaper by Rs 15,845. This fall shows that global events have a direct impact on the prices of these metals.
Market experts say that gold and silver are traditionally considered safe investments, but at present there is instability in them. International tensions, dollar situation, changes in interest rates and investors’ strategies are affecting their prices.
At present, the rise in April has definitely given some relief to the market, but the direction of prices in future will depend on the global conditions. In such a situation, investors are being advised to invest thoughtfully and keeping in mind the market trends.
