Gold and Silver Prices Set to Surge in 2025- Gold Could Reach Rs 90000
Gold prices in India surged by 21% in 2024, driven by central bank policies, geopolitical risks, and strong global demand. As of January 1, 2025, gold prices were Rs 78,000 per 10 grams for 24K, with predictions pointing towards a rise to Rs 85,000-90,000 in 2025. While gold outperformed other commodities in 2024, experts recommend a “buy-on-dips” strategy for investors, as prices may consolidate before further gains. Geopolitical tensions and central bank actions will continue to support the demand for gold and silver.
Silver also saw impressive gains in 2024, with prices expected to reach Rs 1.1-1.25 lakh per kg, fueled by industrial and investment demand. Experts like Manav Modi from Motilal Oswal Financial Services maintain a positive outlook for both metals in the medium to long term, forecasting potential price growth even amid market fluctuations. However, while Rs 1 lakh for gold is considered optimistic, extreme economic conditions could push it towards that mark.

Gold imports rebounded in July, signalling firmer demand conditions.
Looking ahead
Demand conditions are improving, raising expectations of a stronger festive season. While elevated prices may continue to influence jewellery purchases, investment demand remains supportive.
Following a sharp price correction in June, gold prices stabilised during July before recovering in early August, reaching their highest levels in over two months. International gold price (LBMA Gold PM) rose 9% in the first two weeks of August to US$4,391/oz, while domestic prices gained nearly 7% to INR151,744/10g. The appreciation of the INR against the US dollar partially offset the rise in the international price, limiting gains in domestic prices.
Shifting monetary policy expectations, a weaker US dollar, and renewed inflows into gold ETFs supported gold prices, contributing to the recent recovery in the gold market.
