On Friday, both gold and silver prices recorded a sharp decline in the domestic market, halting a five-day upward trend. The drop is attributed to weak global market signals, marking a significant correction after recent highs.
According to the All India Sarafa Association, the price of gold in Delhi's bullion market fell by ₹1,350, bringing the rate to ₹93,000 per 10 grams. Just a day earlier, on Thursday, gold of 99.9% purity had touched a record high of ₹94,350 per 10 grams.
