Gold Rates Jump Today, October 11: Check 22K & 24K Prices in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, and Other Cities.
Gold prices rose sharply on Saturday, driven by safe-haven buying after US President Donald Trump escalated trade tensions with China. Trump announced increased tariffs on Chinese goods up to 100% and imposed export controls on “any and all critical software,” sending global markets on edge.
In Mumbai, 24-carat gold traded at Rs 1,23,700 per 10 grams, while 22K gold was priced at Rs 1,13,390 per 10 grams. These rates exclude GST and making charges. Silver was available at Rs 1,74,100 per kg.
On the international front, spot gold climbed 1.03% to $4,018.4 per ounce, while silver surged 1.94% to $50 per ounce on Saturday.
Key Factors Driving Gold Prices
President Trump’s threat to impose an additional 100% tariff on Chinese imports from November 1, coupled with export controls on rare earth elements, has heightened safe-haven demand. Concerns over a potential trade war escalation have pushed investors toward precious metals.
Silver is also expected to perform strongly, with Emkay Wealth Management forecasting a possible 20% rise over the next year, potentially reaching $60 per ounce. The bullish outlook is supported by growing industrial demand and a supply deficit of around 20%.
Gold has historically matched equities and outperformed bonds since the end of the gold standard. As of October 8, 2025, gold has delivered year-to-date returns of 61.82%, compared with 4.2% for Indian equities (Nifty 500 TRI) and 8.4% for bonds (Crisil Short Term Bond Index). Precious metal prices are closely tied to US dollar movements, and expected rate cuts in the US could weaken the dollar, further supporting gold and silver.
