Gold prices witnessed a marginal decline across major Indian cities on Monday, offering slight relief to buyers after a period of persistent price surges. The rates dropped by ₹1 per gram, continuing a downward trend that began over the weekend.
Gold has long held cultural and financial significance in Indian households, passed down through generations as a symbol of wealth and security. Recent fluctuations in global markets, including a weakening dollar and earlier tariff measures introduced by former U.S. President Donald Trump, had pushed gold prices to historic highs. However, a recent correction has moderated prices slightly.
