The yellow metal has come under fresh pressure at the start of the week, with the gold rates today undergoing a sharp decline across major Indian cities on Monday. The fall is because of the weakness in the global bullion market, dragging domestic rates lower.
In cities like Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad, gold rates are now over 15% below their recent record highs.
The pressure on gold price today in India is mainly because of the continued uncertainty surrounding the US-Iran tensions, which have kept global markets volatile. While geopolitical risks typically support gold as a safe-haven asset, the current scenario has been more complex.

On the global front, spot gold edged slightly lower by 0.1% to $4,488.46 per ounce, during a volatile session as per Reuters report. A softer US dollar provided some support.
At the same time, crude oil prices have surged to near 52-week highs, adding to inflationary pressure globally. Meanwhile, the stock market today also saw sharp declines, further impacting overall investor sentiment in the bullion segment.
