New Delhi, July 21 Over the past six years, gold prices in India have risen by an astounding 200 per cent, skyrocketing from Rs 30,000 to over Rs 1,00,000 per 10 grams between May 2019 to June 2025, analysts said on Monday.
Motilal Oswal Financial Services Limited (MOFSL) reinstated its bullish outlook on the precious metal, considering geopolitical situations.
Phases of heightened market uncertainty during the last couple of years — triggered by inflation, global economic shifts, and geopolitical instability will further trigger an uptick in the gold price, said MOFSL.
“We have been fortunate to be part of the gold uptrend since 2019. Following our long-standing bullish stance on the yellow metal, we are now taking a cautious pause in July 2025 — without completely turning away from it," said Manav Modi, Analyst, Precious Metal Research, MOFSL.
"While normal price fluctuations will continue, for gold prices to move beyond current all-time highs, the market requires fresh and significant catalysts. We are likely to see a period of price consolidation until the emergence of any decisive or longer-term triggers, Modi added.
