Today, April 30, 2025, marks the celebration of Akshaya Tritiya, a day that holds significant importance for Hindus across India. Traditionally, it is believed to be an auspicious day for new beginnings, with many individuals choosing to buy gold as part of the celebration. From a financial perspective, gold continues to be a safe haven investment for protecting wealth, especially on this day when demand is typically higher.
A recent study by HDFC Securities highlighted that over the past decade, from 2015 to 2025, gold has appreciated by more than ₹68,500 per 10 grams, making it a popular choice for long-term investments. Additionally, a report from Ventura Securities revealed that between Akshaya Tritiya 2024 and 2025 alone, gold prices surged by approximately 30%, moving from ₹73,240 per 10 grams to the current levels of ₹95,000-96,000 per 10 grams.
Despite the significant increase in gold prices, experts believe that high prices will not deter buyers this year, as the yellow metal has touched record all-time highs, even reaching ₹1 lakh per 10 grams in retail. This price surge is attributed to factors such as global geopolitical tensions, including the U.S.-China trade conflict and the impact of U.S. tariffs, though prices have seen some pullback in recent weeks due to a strengthening U.S. dollar and easing trade tensions.
