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.

KISNA Diamond and Gold Jewellery Unveils Akshaya Tritiya Campaign
#KhushiyonMeinNivesh
- The campaign brings alive the true meaning of Akshaya Tritiya through a warm, family-led narrative.
- The brand ramps up efforts for Akshaya Tritiya, a key occasion contributing ~15–18% of its annual revenue
- To echo the campaign’s celebration of small occasion-led purchases, the brand has rolled out curated, attractive festive offers for customers.
KISNA Diamond and Gold Jewellery has unveiled its latest campaign, ‘Khushiyon Mein Nivesh’, ahead of Akshaya Tritiya, capturing the deeper cultural significance of the festival through a simple, heartfelt story. Designed as a slice-of-life narrative, the film follows a child’s innocent quest to understand the meaning of “Akshaya”, using a family setting to bring out the emotion and significance of the occasion. The campaign’s theme seamlessly aligns with Kisna’s larger narrative of ‘Khushi ke har pal ke liye Kisna’, reinforcing its commitment to being a part of every joyous moment

About the campaign
The film opens in a warm home on the morning of Akshaya Tritiya, where a young girl curiously asks her grandmother, “Dadi… Akshaya Tritiya kya hota hai?” With gentle wisdom, the grandmother explains, “Akshaya ka matlab hota hai beta… jo kabhi khatam nahi hota… jo hamesha badhta hai.” Still puzzled, the child innocently questions, “Par car to kuch saalon mein purani ho jati hai na… phir wo Akshaya kaise?” Her curiosity sets the tone, carrying into a playful exchange with her father, who hints at a surprise to be revealed later that evening. This builds anticipation as the family steps out together, the child eagerly soaking in the moment.
The story unfolds at a KISNA showroom, where intimate family moments capture the essence of togetherness and discovery. As they explore jewellery, the father gently explains, “Hum invest karte hain khushiyon mein… ye wo khushiyan hain jinki value hamesha badhti hai.” The idea resonates as the child offers her coin, wanting to contribute to this shared happiness. The film closes back at home, where she is surprised with a delicate pendant, her face lighting up as she softly says, “Akshaya!” Ending on an emotional high, the narrative leaves viewers with a simple, enduring thought: “Iss Akshaya Tritiya… invest karein khushiyon mein.”
The campaign features actor Paritosh Tripathi in a key role, alongside a cast of seasoned television actors, bringing relatability and authenticity to the narrative.

Commenting on the campaign, Ghanshyam Dholakia, Founder & Managing Director, Hari Krishna Group and KISNA Diamond and Gold Jewellery, said:

“Akshaya Tritiya is a festival rooted in meaning and tradition. With this campaign, we wanted to bring that meaning alive in a simple and relatable way. The story reflects how happiness and togetherness are values that grow over time, and jewellery becomes a natural part of those moments.”

“At KISNA, we believe jewellery is deeply connected to emotions and the moments people hold close. With ‘Khushiyon Mein Nivesh’, we wanted to tell a story that feels real and relatable, especially through a child’s perspective. The campaign captures how true value lies in happiness that continues to grow, making jewellery a meaningful part of that journey. Akshaya Tritiya remains one of the most significant occasions for us, contributing nearly 15–18% to our annual revenue, and continues to play a key role in driving consumer engagement and overall business performance.”
