Gold Rate Today Live Updates, March 25, 2026: Gold and silver prices in India continue to remain highly volatile on Wednesday, March 25, as global markets react to ongoing geopolitical tensions involving the US–Israel–Iran conflict. Tightening global liquidity and a stronger US dollar are currently outweighing traditional safe-haven demand.After Tuesday’s sharp crash, gold prices are attempting a mild stabilisation but remain under pressure. According to the Indian Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), gold had plunged by over Rs 12,000 to Rs 1,35,141 per 10 grams in the previous session. On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures had also declined sharply by around 3.8 per cent to near Rs 1.39 lakh per 10 grams.Despite the recent fall, gold remains significantly below its all-time high of Rs 1,80,779 per 10 grams recorded on January 29, 2026, highlighting the sharp correction phase currently underway.Impact of Iran WarThe ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict continues to be the primary driver of market volatility. While conflict typically boosts gold, a massive spike in oil prices has complicated the narrative. Rising energy costs are fueling inflation fears, leading to a "hawkish" stance from central banks. This paradox is currently pressuring gold as investors weigh safe-haven needs against interest rate risksExperts Opinion on Gold Rate FluctuationsExperts suggest that the current dip does not indicate weakening of gold’s safe-haven appeal. Instead, the decline is being driven by tightening global liquidity conditions. Rising crude oil prices and higher US bond yields have led to a surge in dollar demand, creating a liquidity squeeze. In such scenarios, investors often sell even safe-haven assets like gold to raise cash and manage positions.According to Anindya Banerjee of Kotak Securities, this phase reflects temporary pressure from global financial tightening rather than a structural shift in gold’s role as a hedge, indicating that volatility may persist in the near term.Citywise Gold Rates (24 Carat)Chennai – ₹14,191/gMumbai – ₹14,291/gDelhi – ₹14,306/gKolkata – ₹14,291/gBangalore – ₹14,291/gHyderabad – ₹14,291/gKerala – ₹14,291/gPune – ₹14,291/gVadodara – ₹14,296/gAhmedabad – ₹14,296/gJaipur – ₹14,306/gLucknow – ₹14,306/gCoimbatore – ₹14,191/gMadurai – ₹14,191/gVijayawada – ₹14,291/gPatna – ₹14,296/gNagpur – ₹14,291/gChandigarh – ₹14,306/gSurat – ₹14,296/gBhubaneswar – ₹14,291/g, Business News, Times Now
