Global Silver Soars to Record High; India Prices Top ₹2 Lakh/kg

• Global silver prices hit a new record high of $62.50 an ounce on Thursday.
• Indian domestic silver prices crossed ₹2 lakh per kg, reaching ₹201 per gram.
• The surge is driven by expectations of looser US monetary policy, a weakening dollar, and lower Treasury yields.
• The US Federal Reserve's December rate cut and measured outlook triggered a broad reassessment of interest-rate expectations, boosting precious metals.
• Silver benefits from both safe-haven buying and robust industrial demand, particularly from green energy and electronics sectors.
