Gold prices in India today
The gold rates across the globe have swung wildly this year in the wake of the movement of US bond yields and the dollar. Likewise, the import duty cut by the Indian government in budget 2021 has affected the domestic gold price.
Following the decision to cut in import duty, the domestic gold prices witnessed a downfall while the gold internationally declined due to a hike in the dollar index and higher US yield, a report said.
In global markets, the gold remained at $1,811.80 an ounce. On February 5, the gold price in India returned to close at Rs 47,256 on the strength of Rs 550 per 10 gram.
