Gold Prices Dip Slightly in June After Mixed Trends in May; Silver Shows Strength
Gold prices in India saw a slight decline in early June, with 24-carat gold trading around ₹1,57,030 per 10 grams in major cities, while silver prices also dipped marginally. In May, gold experienced a two-month low before recovering, influenced by factors like West Asia tensions, currency fluctuations, and import duty changes. Silver maintained relative strength, with local market gains attributed to a weaker rupee and import duty hikes. Analysts note gold and silver prices remain within broad ranges, awaiting breakout movements.
