What's behind the trend

Gold in India is priced off the world gold price (set in US dollars) converted to rupees, plus import duty and 3% GST. So two things move it: the global price — driven by interest rates, inflation and safe-haven demand — and the rupee, since a weaker rupee lifts the local price even when world gold is flat.

The long climb above — roughly +436% since 2015 — reflects both a rising world price and a gradually weaker rupee over the decade, with the sharp run-up into the 29 Jan 2026 record driven by global uncertainty.
