Gold Price On April 22, 2026: Gold And Silver Prices Rise; Check Rates In Metro Cities

Gold and silver prices rose on the Multi-Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) on Wednesday, April 23, 2026. On MCX, gold was priced at Rs 1,53,253 per 10 grams, while silver climbed to Rs 2,48,800 per kilogram. The rise in prices follows global market movements, influenced by geopolitical developments after US President Donald Trump announced an extension of the ceasefire with Iran.

Will Prices Rise Further?

Despite the ceasefire announcement, uncertainty remains, as it is for an indefinite period and depends on further negotiations with Iran. Market experts say such uncertainty often pushes investors towards safe-haven assets like gold, which can lead to price increases.
