Gold and Silver Prices Steady Amid Global Economic and Geopolitical Factors
Gold prices in India remained mostly steady on September 22, 2026, with 24K gold around Rs 15,475 per gram, 22K at Rs 14,185, and 18K near Rs 11,606. Global rates were influenced by expectations of prolonged higher interest rates and easing Middle East tensions, which also affected oil prices. While some jewellery retailers reported slight price decreases, others noted minor increases. Silver prices showed mixed trends, with domestic gains following recent international rises. Market watchers await further US Federal Reserve comments and economic data for direction.
