The prices of the safe-haven asset gold rose by Rs 10 to hit Rs ₹1,17,450 per ten grams of 24-karat gold from ₹1,17,440, amid volatile market conditions.
The yellow metal considered the perfect hedge against inflation, especially during a period marked with rising geopolitical issues in the middle east, India’s apex bank rate expectations, and tariff-induced pressures on export-heavy industries.
During a period of 20 years, gold prices have risen by an impressive 1,200 per cent from ₹7,638 in 2005 to over ₹1,00,000 in 2025 (till June) and delivered positive returns in 16 of these years. Year-to-date (YTD), gold prices have risen 31 per cent, with consistent record highs solidifying its position among 2025’s top-performing asset classes and a reliable hedge.
