Gold prices in India remained firm on 20 April 2026, staying close to ₹1.55 lakh per 10 grams for 24K gold as global uncertainty, currency fluctuations, and steady retail demand continued to support bullion markets. Despite minor volatility in international spot prices, domestic sentiment stayed stable as investors continued to treat gold as a safe-haven asset.

The market also tracked geopolitical developments and interest rate expectations, which kept global bullion prices elevated. In India, jewellers reported steady but cautious demand, with buyers preferring smaller purchases instead of bulk buying due to high price levels.

Global gold prices remained volatile on 20 April 2026 as markets reacted to a stronger US dollar, shifting interest rate expectations, and ongoing geopolitical tensions. Despite short-term pressure, safe-haven demand continued to support bullion at elevated levels.

In the international spot market, gold is trading around $4,790 – $4,850 per ounce, after recent fluctuations driven by inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainty. Analysts noted that gold briefly touched higher levels earlier this month before facing a mild correction due to dollar strength.

Market experts said that global investors continue to treat gold as a hedge against risk, although short-term selling pressure has increased due to profit booking and rising bond yields.

Jewellers report increasing interest in lightweight ornaments and digital gold investments. Experts believe gold will remain volatile in the short term but supported in the medium term due to global uncertainty.

Key Considerations for Buyers

  • GST: 3% applicable on the gold value
