If you've been planning a Dhanteras or Diwali gold buy, today's a good day to check prices.
Gold in Delhi has slipped to ₹1.48 lakh per 10 gm as demand cools off right before the festive rush.
That works out to roughly ₹14,800 a gram — a dip worth noticing if you were waiting to buy.
What this means for you
- Buying 10 gm now costs about ₹1.48 lakh — a touch cheaper than recent weeks, handy if Dhanteras shopping is on your list.
- If you hold Gold ETFs or Sovereign Gold Bonds through your broker or investing app, their value dips too — but festive demand usually lifts it back within weeks.
- If gold is part of your portfolio, your net worth may show a small, temporary dip — nothing that needs urgent action.
What you can do
- If Dhanteras gold buying is already in your budget, this dip is a fair window to go ahead — waiting for a bigger drop isn't guaranteed to pay off.
- Want gold without the storage and making-charge hassle? Consider Gold ETFs instead of jewellery this year.
Gold prices move with demand and global cues — but your festive budget is still yours to control.
