Gold price surges past Rs 1 Lakh/ 10 gm

In a landmark moment for the Indian bullion market, gold prices have surged past the Rs 1 lakh mark per 10 grams, reinforcing the precious metal’s status as a safe-haven investment during times of economic uncertainty. On Friday, Mumbai’s renowned Zaveri Bazaar witnessed an unprecedented rise in the price of 24-carat gold, which now stands at Rs 1,01,000 per 10 grams—marking the highest ever recorded in India’s history.

This significant increase is largely attributed to a confluence of international and domestic factors. Market experts suggest that rising global gold prices, coupled with expectations of potential interest rate cuts in the United States and Europe, have played a pivotal role in boosting demand. Additionally, a weakening US dollar and ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, have further cemented gold’s appeal among investors seeking stability in volatile times.

While this surge may be welcomed by investors, it poses a financial challenge for everyday consumers, especially during the current wedding season. As gold becomes increasingly expensive, middle-class buyers may find it harder to afford new jewellery. In fact, several gold traders have reported a noticeable dip in demand for newly crafted ornaments, with many customers choosing instead to liquidate existing gold assets to take advantage of the high prices.

Looking ahead, the trajectory of gold prices remains uncertain. If global instability continues and investor demand holds strong, experts believe that prices could climb even higher. On the other hand, some analysts foresee a potential cooling-off period, citing the likelihood of profit booking by investors who may now choose to capitalize on the recent surge.

In conclusion, the current rally in gold prices underscores the metal’s enduring significance in global and domestic markets. Whether this trend will persist or see a temporary pullback remains to be seen, but for now, gold continues to shine brightly as both an investment and a symbol of security.

Driven by robust investor confidence, strong festive demand, and the continued rise of India’s organized jewellery retail sector, P N Gadgil Jewellers Ltd (PNGJL) stock hit a new 52-week high of Rs. 727.80 on the NSE today (May 7, 2026). The stock was trading strongly, with an intraday high of Rs. 727.80, showcasing significant upward momentum. The price was Rs 711.35 at close of trading.

The rally reflects growing investor confidence in India’s organized jewellery retail industry, particularly branded chains demonstrating strong expansion, rising revenues, and resilient consumer demand despite elevated gold prices.

The breakout above the earlier resistance level is being viewed positively by both market participants and technical analysts, indicating sustained bullish momentum in the stock.

Industry experts believe several key factors are contributing to the sharp upward movement in PNG Jewellers’ shares:

  • Expansion of retail showroom network
  • Growing trust in organized jewellery brands
  • Strong quarterly business updates
  • Increased investor interest in consumer retail stocks
  • Strong festive and wedding season demand

The branded jewellery segment continues to benefit from evolving consumer preferences, with buyers increasingly shifting toward transparency, certified products, and trusted legacy brands.

The rally in PNG Jewellers also underlines the broader strength of India’s organized jewellery market. Leading brands across the country are witnessing strong footfalls, higher ticket sizes, and consistent growth across bridal, festive, and daily wear categories.

With gold continuing to remain both an emotional asset and a preferred investment avenue for Indian consumers, jewellery retailers are maintaining strong business momentum even amid periods of elevated bullion prices.

Analysts now expect investors to closely monitor whether PNG Jewellers sustains above the crucial Rs. 700 breakout zone in the coming trading sessions. Continued earnings growth, retail expansion, and stronger visibility on future performance could further strengthen market confidence.

The stock’s fresh 52-week high marks another important moment for India’s jewellery retail industry, reinforcing the sector’s strong growth trajectory across both consumer demand and capital markets.
