Gold and Silver Prices Decline in India Amid Global Economic and Geopolitical Concerns
Gold and silver prices in India declined on September 29, 2026, with 24-carat gold trading around Rs 1.46 lakh per 10 grams and silver near Rs 2.27 lakh per kg. The drop followed global trends as gold hit a seven-week low amid concerns over elevated US interest rates and oil prices linked to US-Iran tensions. Retail prices vary slightly across major cities and jewellery brands, with additional charges like making fees and taxes affecting final costs. Investors await upcoming US economic data amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainties.
