India vs Dubai: Gold Prices Remain Costlier at Home
Gold prices in India continued to trade at a significant premium compared to Dubai. On December 25, 24K gold in Dubai was priced at Rs 112,816 per 10 grams, making gold in India about Rs 25,434 or 22.54% more expensive.
The same premium was observed across 22K and 18K gold, even before accounting for additional costs such as import duties, GST, making charges, and local taxes.
Why Gold Prices Are Flat Today
Gold prices remained steady after touching record highs earlier this week. Analysts attribute the pause to profit booking by investors, following a strong rally driven by expectations of US Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2026.
Lower-than-expected US unemployment data also helped cool the rally, while ongoing geopolitical tensions involving the US and Venezuela continue to support gold’s long-term bullish outlook.
It is important to note that trading on MCX and major international markets is closed today due to the Christmas holiday, contributing to limited price movement.
(Rates may vary across jewellers due to local taxes, making charges, and logistics.)
Outlook for Gold Investors
Market experts expect gold prices to remain elevated over the medium to long term, supported by a cooling US labour market, strong expectations of interest rate cuts, and persistent geopolitical risks.
Recent remarks by US President Donald Trump favouring lower interest rates have further reinforced bullish sentiment for gold. Typically, lower interest rates increase the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold.
Retail investors are advised to monitor global cues, currency movements, and central bank signals before making fresh investment decisions.
Silver prices, meanwhile, also pared gains after touching record highs in recent sessions.
