Gold Rate Today: As of August 20, 2025, the price of gold in India has seen a significant decrease across all varieties. Today's per-gram rates are Rs 10,015 for 24-karat gold, a decline of Rs 60 from yesterday. The price for 22-karat gold is Rs 9,180 per gram, marking a decrease of Rs 55. Meanwhile, 18-karat gold is priced at Rs 7,511 per gram, which is a drop of Rs 45.

The noticeable decline in prices is a reflection of several market forces. The price of gold, a classic "safe-haven" asset, is directly influenced by global stability. A reduction in geopolitical tensions can lead to investors pulling out of gold and shifting their capital to higher-risk, higher-yield investments like stocks. This effect is often amplified by a strengthening US dollar, which makes gold more expensive for international buyers and can reduce demand. Additionally, any indication of central banks tightening monetary policy or raising interest rates makes interest-bearing investments more attractive than non-yielding gold, further contributing to a price decrease.
