Gold Rate Today: On Tuesday, October 14, 2025, gold prices continued their upward trend, with rates for all purities seeing a significant increase. The 24K and 22K gold rose by Rs 128 and 115, reaching Rs 12,668 per gram and Rs 11,795 per gram respectively. While 18-karat gold has seen an increase of Rs 94, reaching Rs 9,651 per gram. All the information has been derived from the official website of MMTC, which is India's largest public sector trading body and has been a significant importer of gold and other precious metals in India. It has been a key player in the bullion trade and has been instrumental in the supply of gold to jewellers and other industrial users.

The price rise has been attributed to several global and domestic factors, as persistent global economic uncertainty and inflationary pressures are prompting investors to turn to gold as a safe-haven asset.
The Rupee vs. dollar price fluctuations also continue to affect the domestic prices of gold.
The ongoing festive and wedding season in the country has also led to a huge surge in demand from both consumers and jewellers, further bolstering the price increase.
Here is a breakdown of gold prices in major Indian cities for today and yesterday:

The cost of gold is in a constant flux which is driven by many different factors, such as the performance of the US dollar. This is because gold is internationally traded in the American currency, and any fluctuations in its value have a direct impact on the price of gold in other currencies.

Moreover, the global demand and supply dynamics, interest rate changes by central banks, and geopolitical tensions all play a crucial role in determining the price of this precious metal.
Gold has long been regarded as a reliable hedge against inflation. During periods of rising inflation, the purchasing power of fiat currencies tends to decline, and thus investors flock to gold as a reliable asset. This inverse relationship with the general economy makes gold a much sought-after asset for portfolio investors and wealth preservers, especially in times of economic instability.
