MCX was shut for the weekend and Gandhi Jayanti, so the article uses Thursday’s close, with gold still trading above ₹1.49 lakh/10g but slightly lower than recent sessions.

City quotes were tightly clustered: 24K gold ranged from ₹150,020/10g in New Delhi to ₹150,710/10g in Chennai, while silver ranged from ₹225,790/kg in Delhi to ₹226,840/kg in Chennai. The piece also notes gold’s more than 75% rise last year and says recent gains have been supported by safe-haven demand and global economic uncertainty; silver has risen even more sharply on demand and currency effects.
