How is the rate fixed?
Gold and silver prices are fixed daily and many economic, social and global reasons are connected behind it. First, the exchange rate and dollar prices fluctuate directly affect the price of these metals, as gold and silver are fixed in the US dollars in the international market. If the dollar becomes expensive or the rupee becomes weak, then gold and silver prices in India increase.
The second major reason is customs and tax. Most of gold is imported in India, so import duty, GST and local taxes affect its price. The status of the international market also changes the rates of gold. In the time of war, economic recession, change in interest rates or global instability, investors turn to safe options like gold and silver instead of shares, which increases their prices.
Gold also has a special cultural and social importance in India. Buying gold on weddings, festivals and auspicious occasions is considered a tradition. Due to this, demand increases and the price is affected. In the end, gold and silver are also important from the point of view of inflation and investment. At the time of inflation, gold proves to be a better return tool. People consider gold and silver a safe investment when the risk in the stock market increases. This is the reason why the demands and prices of these metals are always high.
