Gold Price in India: The rates of 24 karat, 22 karat, and 18 karat gold in India edged higher on Friday, March 20, while the silver prices remained largely stable. The uptick in domestic gold prices came amid a broader recovery in the global bullion market, as investors reassessed their risk appetite in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions.
Despite Friday's surge, the gold rate in India is inching towards its third weekly decline amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty, US Federal Reserve's hawkish stance and concerns around Iran-US war in the West Asia.

Back in India, gold prices are tracked on a daily basis as it is not just a safe haven asset for investors but also carries immense emotional value for retail jewellery buyers. Here are the latest details about gold rate in India today.

Will Gold Price Rise Amid Geopolitical Uncertainty?
Gold and silver saw a sharp correction in their prices over the past two to three weeks. However, the yellow metal may see some upward momentum in the coming weeks as investors will navigate the US Federal Reserve's stance on future policy rate cuts and the transition of US Fed leadership to Kevin Warsh from Powell.
" As the market weighs the transition from Powell to Kevin Warsh amidst legal subpoenas and regional war, the U.S. dollar may face pressure from a perceived leadership vacuum. This instability enhances safe haven demand as investors seek protection from potential stagflation," explained Justin Khoo, Senior Market Analyst - APAC, VT Markets.
