Gold Falls ₹1,500 in Delhi as Silver Holds Steady
Gold became cheaper in Delhi for the second day in a row.
Its price fell by ₹1,500 for every 10 grams.
Silver did not change in price.
Experts said a strong US dollar made gold less attractive.
Comments from Federal Reserve officials also suggested that interest rates may stay high for a long time.
Lower oil prices could help gold by reducing worries about inflation.
Another analyst said higher oil prices and tensions in West Asia were hurting gold.
Investors are watching new US economic data and a planned meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping for clues about markets.
Gold of 99.9% purity fell ₹1,500 to ₹1,54,900 per 10 grams in Delhi on September 22, 2026.
The decline marked gold’s second consecutive session of losses, according to local traders.
Silver prices remained unchanged at ₹2.42 lakh per kilogram.
Analysts linked gold’s weakness to hawkish Federal Reserve comments, a strong US dollar and mixed oil-price movements.
Global spot gold and silver prices fell nearly 1%, while traders awaited US economic data and a meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping.
