Interestingly, earlier data indicated 24 karat gold at ₹1,56,770 per 10 grams, suggesting a steady rise of 0.55% during the day. This consistent increase highlights strong investor sentiment, possibly driven by global economic uncertainties, currency fluctuations, and safe-haven demand for gold.

The rise in silver prices outpacing gold suggests increased industrial demand, as silver is widely used in electronics, solar panels, and other manufacturing sectors. At the same time, gold continues to attract investors and households, especially in a state like Kerala, where gold holds strong cultural and financial significance.

Market experts indicate that bullion prices may remain volatile in the coming days, influenced by global economic signals, inflation concerns, and currency movements. For now, both gold and silver are trading on a firm note, offering mixed cues for buyers-higher costs but strong long-term value retention.
