Price fluctuations due to these reasons
Market experts say that in the short term, gold prices may remain under pressure. Gold and silver price fluctuations have been seen in US dollar fluctuations, rising corona virus cases and related restrictions, mixed economic data from major economies and the Stimulus Package. Spot gold and gold jewelery prices in the bullion markets of the country have declined due to a cut in customs duty. Let us tell you that in the budget 2021, the central government cut import duty of precious metals to 7.5%. Due to this, gold prices have dropped in major cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Chennai.
