On April 21, 2025, gold prices in India soared to unprecedented levels, with MCX gold peaking at ₹96,747 per 10 grams, marking a ₹1,493 surge from the previous close. This places gold just ₹3,253 shy of the ₹1,00,000 milestone. In major cities like Mumbai, Kolkata, and Hyderabad, 24K gold reached ₹98,350 per 10 grams, while 22K gold surpassed ₹90,000 for the first time. Silver also witnessed a significant rise, with prices hitting ₹1,01,000 per kg in cities such as Delhi and Mumbai. Notably, MCX gold is now more expensive than silver, a rare occurrence. These surges are attributed to global economic uncertainties and heightened safe-haven demand. (PC: Business Today & The Financial Express)
