Factors affecting gold rates in India are a mix of global and domestic influences. Internationally, the price is heavily impacted by global market trends and U.S. trade policies, such as the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, which can create uncertainty and boost gold's appeal as a safe-haven asset. Since gold is primarily imported, its price in rupees is also sensitive to the Rupee-Dollar exchange rate. Domestically, gold demand rises during festivals and weddings.
