Silver strengthened by Rs 10,000 in the last six trading sessions
Silver prices rose by Rs 10,000 per kg in the last six trading sessions. Since October 16, gold prices have risen by Rs 2,850 per 10 grams. According to Narinder Wadhwa, Managing Director of SKI Capital, the reason for the price of silver reaching Rs 1 lakh in the bullion market and MCX is the increased demand during the festive season and the geopolitical risk arising from the ongoing conflict in West Asia.
Gold silver prices fell by 7 per cent in the local markets after the government cut customs duty on imports of gold and other metals in July. After that, festivals, expectations of interest rate cuts in the US and increasing geopolitical tensions increased demand among Indian consumers, which led to a surge in bullion prices.
