Gold Rate Today: Gold and silver prices in India witnessed a sharp downturn on March 21, with gold recording one of its steepest weekly declines in nearly four decades. The price of 24-carat gold plunged by around Rs 29,400, reflecting a strong global sell-off and bearish market sentiment despite the ongoing festive demand during Eid-ul-Fitr. 

Following a nearly 3.5% drop in spot gold prices, investors appear to be offloading holdings. Here’s a look at the latest gold and silver rates today across major cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai. 

Why Gold Rates Are Falling?

Gold remained highly volatile, initially opening higher near $4,700 and Rs 1,48,000, supported by short covering following the previous session’s sharp decline. However, the rebound was short-lived, as fresh selling pressure at higher levels pushed prices down from Rs 1,48,000 to around Rs 1,46,000. 

He added that the overall market sentiment remains weak, with key macroeconomic factor still unfavourable. Interest rates are likely to stay elevated, while persistent geopolitical tensions are keeping crude oil prices firm, sustaining inflation concerns and capping any significant upside in gold.
