    Gold Price Today: Gold prices in India saw a decline despite global markets witnessing a surge in the precious metal’s value due to safe-haven buying. According to the All India Sarafa Association, on Friday, gold prices in the national capital fell by Rs 400 to settle at Rs 97,620 per 10 grams for 99.9% purity.

    In the previous session, gold had closed at Rs 98,020 per 10 grams. Similarly, gold of 99.5% purity dropped by Rs 300 to Rs 97,500 per 10 grams, inclusive of all taxes, compared to the previous level of Rs 97,800 per 10 grams.

    Silver prices also extended their losses for the second consecutive day. The white metal tumbled by Rs 2,500 to Rs 109,500 per kg from Rs 112,000 per kg in the last session.

    Global Factors Driving Gold Sentiment

    While domestic prices dipped due to profit booking by stockists, international markets saw a notable rise in gold prices. Spot gold climbed 1.8% to $3,347.66 per ounce, hitting its highest level since July 25, after briefly touching a 2% gain earlier in the day. US gold futures also settled 1.5% higher at $3,399.8 per ounce.

    This rally came after weaker-than-expected US payroll data reinforced expectations of an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve next month. Non-farm payrolls increased by only 73,000 jobs in July, well below the forecast of 106,000, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.2% from 4.1% in June.

    Additionally, US President Donald Trump’s fresh tariff announcements—including reciprocal duties of 10% to 41% on imports from nearly 70 countries and a steep 40% levy on rerouted goods—heightened global trade uncertainties, driving demand for gold as a safe-haven asset.

    Expert Views on Gold Trends

    According to Sugandha Sachdeva, founder of SS WealthStreet, gold has remained resilient despite domestic corrections.

    She said, “Gold prices surged by around 1% during the week, building on a strong base near $3,265 per ounce in the international market, while on the domestic front, the Rs 97,000 per 10gm level has emerged as a key support zone. The confluence of escalating global trade tensions and concerns over the US central bank’s independence has created an environment for risk aversion, driving investors toward gold.”

    She added that recent US data reflects mixed signals, with sticky inflation and slowing job growth creating pressure on the Federal Reserve to consider rate cuts.

    “This combination of weak labour market momentum and inflation concerns has increased market expectations of a rate cut in September, pressuring the dollar and enhancing gold’s appeal. A short-term dip towards Rs 98,200 per 10gm cannot be ruled out, which could attract fresh buying interest. On the upside, domestic gold prices may test Rs 100,500 per 10gm, while international prices could move towards $3,410 per ounce,” she explained.

    Silver and Other Precious Metals

    While gold gained internationally, spot silver was up 0.4% at $36.88 per ounce, platinum rose 1.2% to $1,304.91, and palladium climbed 1.4% to $1,208.05. However, despite Friday’s rise, silver, platinum, and palladium all posted weekly losses.

    Will Gold Continue To Attract Safe Haven?

    Experts believe gold will continue to attract safe-haven demand in the coming weeks, driven by global trade tensions, the possibility of US rate cuts, and geopolitical uncertainties.

    Tariff-related developments and upcoming macroeconomic data, including the US ISM Manufacturing PMI, China’s trade balance and PMI data, and the Bank of England’s rate decision, will remain key triggers for the metal’s movement.

    In India, traders expect domestic gold prices to stabilise around the Rs 97,000 level in the near term and possibly rebound if global cues remain supportive. Despite the temporary dip, gold is holding firm as a hedge against uncertainty and a reliable store of value for investors worldwide.
