Gold Prices Rise Again: Weak Rupee, Global Factors Push Up Costs

• Gold prices are rising again due to international market increases, a weaker Indian Rupee, and global geopolitical/economic uncertainty.
• Experts advise investors to understand market trends, plan long-term, and consider safe options like SGBs or digital gold.
• For jewelry, waiting for a price drop is suggested; for investment, long-term gains are possible even at current higher prices.
• As of Thursday, December 11, 22K gold is ₹12165, 18K gold is ₹9990, and silver is ₹188665 per kg, with an additional 3% GST.
