Gold Prices in India Decline on September 28 Amid Global Market Pressures
Gold prices in India declined on September 28, 2026, with 24 carat gold priced at Rs 15,017 per gram, down Rs 251 from the previous day. Similarly, 22 carat and 18 carat gold prices fell by Rs 230 and Rs 188 respectively. The decrease is attributed to global market pressures, including a stronger US dollar, higher interest rates, and inflation concerns driven by rising oil prices, which have increased expectations of further US Federal Reserve rate hikes.
