Here are some of the key influences on gold rates in India:

1. Global demand and supply: High international demand or reduced supply can increase gold rates globally, impacting local markets such as India, including Punjab.
2. Currency fluctuations: The strength of the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar influences gold prices, as gold is traded internationally in USD.
3. Inflation and economic stability: Gold is considered a safe-haven asset. During inflation or economic uncertainty, demand rises, increasing prices.
4. Import duties and taxes: In India, local gold rates are significantly affected by import duties, GST, and other government levies.
5. Local demand and festivals: Seasonal demand, especially during festivals such as Diwali and Akshaya Tritiya, and wedding seasons, can push up gold prices due to higher local consumption.

Tracking the gold rate regularly is a must if you’re looking to invest or buy jewellery. Doing so can help you time your investments well, getting you more value for your money.
