Platinum Jewellery Sparkles as the Modern Choice for Akshaya Tritiya
Symbolising purity, strength, and timeless elegance, platinum emerges as a popular pick for celebrating prosperity and new beginnings this festive season.
As India prepares to celebrate Akshaya Tritiya on April 30, a festival known for ushering in prosperity and fresh starts, many are turning to platinum jewellery to mark the occasion with meaning and style.
Traditionally seen as a time to invest in gold and other symbols of wealth, Akshaya Tritiya is now witnessing a shift as contemporary consumers seek out choices that reflect both heritage and modern values. Platinum — with its naturally white sheen, 95% purity, and resistance to tarnish — is being embraced as a powerful emblem of enduring wealth and spiritual purity.
Reflecting the timeless essence of the festival, platinum jewellery is available in a variety of collections designed to resonate with today’s lifestyle. Women can explore graceful, modern designs through Platinum Evara, men can find strength and character in Men of Platinum, and couples can celebrate their bond with Platinum Love Bands, crafted to honour life’s significant milestones.
Each piece bears the hallmark “Pt 950,” certifying its high purity and enduring value. As a metal that stands the test of time, platinum offers more than just visual appeal — it embodies the lasting emotional and material richness that Akshaya Tritiya represents.
With its blend of tradition and innovation, platinum jewellery continues to shine as a meaningful and lasting way to celebrate this auspicious day — a gift of love, resilience, and prosperity to treasure for generations.

MCX Gold, Silver Edge Higher, Comex Gold Moves To $23.30 To Reach $4,113.80/oz
The Uptick Reflects Cautious Optimism Among Global Traders Following Diplomatic Signals That Washington and Tehran May Be Nearing A Resolution Regarding Key Maritime Passages
Gold and silver prices pushed higher Tuesday as commodity investors calibrated market expectations around U.S.-Iran diplomatic discussions and the prospect of reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
On the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, gold futures rose $23.30, or 0.6%, to trade near $4,113.80 per ounce. Silver futures picked up $1.03 to settle near $58.88 per ounce.
The momentum spilled into Asian markets. On India’s Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), benchmark October gold contracts climbed Rs 644 from the previous close to open at Rs 1,43,559 per 10 grams, eventually rising to Rs 1,43,607 per 10 grams during morning trade. September silver contracts on the exchange gained momentum as well, advancing Rs 2,404 to reach Rs 2,19,150 per kilogram.
In global trading on the Comex, gold rose $23.30 to reach $4,113.80 per ounce, while silver advanced $1.03 to $58.88 per ounce. Domestically on India’s MCX exchange, October gold contracts gained Rs 692 to trade at Rs 1,43,607 per 10 grams, while September silver contracts climbed Rs 2,404 to Rs 2,19,150 per kilogram.
The uptick reflects cautious optimism among global traders following diplomatic signals that Washington and Tehran may be nearing a resolution regarding key maritime passages. A potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz—a crucial transit hub for global commodity transport—has prompted shifts in energy and precious metal risk premiums across international markets.
Despite Tuesday’s modest rebound, both metals continue to trade significantly below their high-water marks for the year. Comex gold previously touched a year-to-date peak of $5,586.20 per ounce, while silver reached $121.79 per ounce during earlier market surges.
