Gold prices have dipped by 0.48% to ₹77,622.00 per 10 grams on October 28, 2025, just one day ahead of Dhanteras, a significant day for gold purchases in India. This decline follows a period of steady increases in gold prices throughout the year, driven by a variety of factors including geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic indicators. The rise of the US dollar has further contributed to the drop, as investors remain cautious and attentive to upcoming inflation data and GDP reports that may influence decisions by the US Federal Reserve.

As Dhanteras approaches, traditionally known for heightened gold buying, the market dynamics are noteworthy. Gold futures on the MCX for December delivery have also seen a decrease, dropping by 0.42% to ₹78,200. The overall performance of gold, which has risen nearly 30% over the past year, starkly contrasts with the benchmark BSE Sensex, which has only gained 10.79% in the same period. Factors such as the ongoing geopolitical conflicts and monetary policy shifts in China have played a significant role in shaping gold prices.
