Gold & Silver Rates Today (21-06-2026) LIVE: India Gold Rates Flat, Silver Muted As Dollar Hits 1-Yr High

Gold rates and silver rates are unchanged broadly in India. Despite this, gold prices are broadly down by 7% across 24 carat, 22 carat, and 18 carat in June 2026 so far, while silver rates nosedived nearly 11%. Precious metals are under pressure due to expectations of rate hikes after the US Federal Reserve turned hawkish, which strengthened the dollar and treasury yields but dimmed demand for safe haven assets. Also, easing geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran further dampened the mood in gold and silver.

At present, the 24 carat gold price stood at Rs 1,46,080 per 10 grams in majority of cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Kerala, Bengaluru and Kolkata among others. 22 carat gold price stood at Rs 1,33,900 and 18 carat gold is priced at Rs 1,09,560 per 10 grams.

Silver rate stood at Rs 2.50 lakh per 1 Kg.

Last week, MCX gold is currently below Rs 147,500 per 10 grams mark and MCX silver plunged to near Rs 232,700 per 1 kg level. Meanwhile, spot gold reached $4,150 per ounce, and spot silver fell below $65 per ounce. Both spot gold and silver are at their lowest level since June 11. On the contrary, US WTI Crude oil climbed above $77 per barrel and Brent Crude neared $81 per barrel.

The dollar climbed to a one-year high after the Federal Reserve left rates unchanged but struck a hawkish tone. Nine of the Fed's 19 policymakers now expect at least one rate hike later this year, while markets are pricing in roughly a 70% chance of an increase by September. Higher-for-longer interest rates tend to reduce the appeal of non-yielding assets such as silver while supporting the dollar. Geopolitical uncertainty also remained elevated after Switzerland announced that planned US-Iran talks aimed at ending the Middle East conflict would not take place on Friday, clouding prospects for a lasting peace agreement, as per Trading Economics.
