Gold Price Today: Gold and silver prices witnessed sharp selling pressure on Sunday after Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman presented the Union Budget 2026 in Parliament. In a special trading session on the Multi-Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold prices extended losses by nearly 3 per cent, while silver rates tumbled over 9 per cent amid heavy profit booking and weak global cues. Check the latest city-wise gold and silver prices below.
Gold Rate in India
MCX gold prices were trading at Rs 1,49,100 per 10 grams, down Rs 3,245 or 2.13 percent, while MCX silver slipped Rs 25,218, or 8.64 per cent, to Rs 2,66,707 per kg. The recent drop in gold and silver ETFs largely mirrors the sharp fall in international bullion prices, especially the decline seen in LBMA rates on January 30, 2026. With domestic exchanges open during the Union Budget session, the impact of the global correction has spilled over into ETF trading on February 1, the first working day after the international sell-off.
