Gold prices in India surged by ₹230 on October 3, reaching an all-time high due to escalating tensions in West Asia and festive buying during Navratri. In Delhi, 24K gold hit ₹77,610 per 10 grams. Silver prices remained steady at ₹94,900 per kilogram despite global fluctuations.

The conflict between Israel and Iran, which saw missile strikes on Tel Aviv, significantly influenced gold’s global price, pushing it to $2,671 an ounce. Experts predict that gold could reach $3,200 an ounce soon, driven by potential US Federal Reserve rate cuts and ongoing geopolitical issues.

In major Indian cities, gold prices echoed the national trend with uniform rises across Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata.
