12 Sep 2025 : Gold prices in India are continuously touching record levels, and with the festive and wedding season approaching, buyers are confused about whether to purchase now or wait. Global brokerage firms estimate that the bullish trend in gold will continue, and over the next few years, prices could see a massive rise of up to 229%.
The major reasons behind the surge in gold prices are global economic uncertainty and the traditional buying habits of Indians. According to IBJA Vice President Aaksha Kambhoj, it is difficult to time the market, which is why investing in installments is a better strategy.
Expert Predictions
Currently, gold is trading at $3,650 per ounce. Experts predict that in the near future, it could move up to $3,700–$3,800, although a short-term correction of 2–5% is also possible. In India, the current price stands at ₹1.10 lakh per 10 grams. Swiss Asia estimates that by 2032, gold could reach between ₹2.40 lakh and ₹3.61 lakh per 10 grams.
Meanwhile, Citigroup has projected a 9.6% rise, while Goldman Sachs has forecast a 37% increase in gold prices.
When it comes to investment strategy, experts advise that instead of lump-sum purchases, installment-based investing is safer. Investors could consider allocating 20–30% now and keeping the remaining amount in cash reserves to buy more during potential dips.
Summary : Experts predict a further rise in gold prices, with rates possibly touching ₹3.61 lakh per 10 grams, driven by strong global demand and market uncertainties.
