The recent uptrend comes after bullion prices rallied for the second consecutive session, supported by a softer US dollar, declining crude oil prices and optimism over global monetary policy. Analysts say investors are also monitoring upcoming US economic data for fresh cues on interest rates, which could influence gold's next move.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), both gold and silver futures continued to trade in positive territory as traders increased their positions. Jewellers noted that demand remains healthy despite elevated prices, with buyers making purchases ahead of the upcoming festive and wedding season.

Retail gold rates differ slightly from city to city due to local taxes, transportation costs and jewellers' pricing policies. Consumers are advised to compare rates and ensure BIS hallmark certification before making purchases.

Gold continues to remain one of the preferred investment avenues for Indian households, especially during periods of market uncertainty. With global economic developments and currency movements expected to remain volatile, analysts believe bullion prices could continue witnessing sharp swings in the coming weeks. Investors should closely track international market cues, the rupee-dollar exchange rate and domestic demand before taking fresh investment decisions.
