However, prices have since rebounded, driven by increased consumer demand linked to ongoing festivals, expectations of interest rate cuts in the US, and rising geopolitical tensions.
The retail price of gold in India, which represents the final cost for consumers, is influenced by various factors beyond market value, including import duties, taxes, and currency exchange rates.
