Gold prices are breaking records in 2025. In India, 24-carat gold is now ₹11,133 per gram and 22-carat gold is around ₹10,205 per gram. In cities like Ahmedabad, the price of 10 grams has already crossed ₹1.09 lakh. This year alone, gold has jumped 42%.
Why are prices rising?
- The government cut import duty from 15% to 6%, which increased official imports.
- Importing gold through alloys and chemicals has been restricted.
- The Gold Monetization Scheme now allows only short-term deposits.
- Demand is very strong because of weddings and festivals.
What’s next?
Experts say ₹1,09,000 per 10 grams is a strong support level. If it doesn’t drop below this, prices may soon cross ₹1,10,200.
Key factors to watch:
- Dollar strength
- Inflation and interest rates
- Global politics and economy
- Indian rupee and government policies
What should you do?
Gold is at all-time highs, so many people are waiting instead of buying. If global prices fall, Indian prices could drop quickly. Investors should be patient and careful.

Gold has surged to record levels in 2025, with 24-carat gold at ₹11,133 per gram and 22-carat gold at ₹10,205 per gram. In Ahmedabad, 10 grams now costs more than ₹1,09,500, reflecting a 42% increase this year.
Recent government policy changes have influenced the market. Customs duty was reduced from 15% to 6%, curbing smuggling while boosting official imports. Restrictions were imposed on alloy and chemical imports containing gold, and the Gold Monetization Scheme was revised to only short-term deposits.
Despite soaring prices, supply from recycled gold remains limited as consumers expect further gains. Demand continues to be supported by weddings and festivals, with many opting for exchanges rather than outright sales.
Market analysts view ₹1,09,000 per 10 grams as a strong support level. If prices hold, they could climb further towards ₹1,10,200 and beyond. Future trends will depend on the US dollar, global interest rates, inflation, geopolitical risks, and Indian government policies.
For investors and consumers, caution is essential. While gold remains attractive as a hedge, the possibility of volatility cannot be ruled out.
