Market Analysis
- Primary Driver: The U.S. Federal Reserve held interest rates steady and signaled only one potential cut for 2026, boosting the dollar and making gold more expensive for international buyers. International prices have plunged by over $527 per ounce over the past week.
- Domestic Impact: While global prices fell sharply, a weaker Indian Rupee has provided a partial cushion for domestic prices, limiting the decline in rupee terms.
- Retail Note: Final jewellery prices in India typically include an additional 3% GST and making charges ranging from 5% to 35%.
Can Gold Prices Fall Further?
Short-Term Outlook:
- Fed Policy: With the U.S. Federal Reserve maintaining a hawkish stance, gold faces continued pressure from a strong dollar. The next major support is around $4,400 per ounce.
- Geopolitical Factors: While Middle East tensions provide some floor, dollar strength is currently the dominant driver.
- Rupee Movement: A weaker rupee could continue to cushion the fall for Indian buyers.
- Expert View: Analysts suggest that if the dollar index continues to strengthen, gold could test $4,400 in the coming weeks. However, any escalation in geopolitical tensions or dovish pivot from central banks could trigger a rebound. The current levels represent a significant correction from March peaks.
Key Considerations for Buyers
- GST: A 3% GST is applicable on the value of gold purchases in India.
- Making Charges: For jewellery, additional making charges typically range from 5% to 35% depending on design intricacy.
- Investment Options: Besides physical gold, investors often use Gold ETFs or digital gold to track market prices while avoiding making charges.
