Today’s Gold Price
In India, the price of 24-carat gold is around ₹ 12,328 per gram, and 22-carat gold is about ₹ 11,300 per gram.
Globally, spot gold is trading at roughly US $4,100 per troy ounce, with a year-on-year rise of nearly 100%.
Gold remains underpinned by a combination of inflationary pressures, geopolitical risk, central bank buying and a weaker US dollar — all factors that strengthen gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset.
One-Year Outlook for Gold
Looking ahead, most analyst forecasts remain bullish , though with caveats. Some key forecasts:
J.P. Morgan projects gold could average US $5,055 per ounce by late 2026
Morgan Stanley sees it rising to around US $4,400 per ounce by end-2026.
Goldman Sachs has a baseline target of US $4,000 by mid-2026, with higher potential if major macro risks unfold.
On the conservative end, some forecasters warn of flat or slightly lower near-term prices if interest rates stay high and investor risk appetite returns.
For an investor in India, this could imply the rupee/gram gold rate may cross ₹ 13,000-₹ 14,000 per gram (24 K) over the next 12 months assuming global USD gold moves higher and the rupee does not strengthen significantly.
Future of Gold & Crypto
Gold Often seen as a hedge against inflation, currency devaluation and systemic risk. It doesn’t provide yield, so its attractiveness depends heavily on macro-conditions (like low interest rates, weak dollar, central bank buying).
Cryptocurrency These are digital assets built on blockchain technology, typically decentralized and not backed by a central bank. They have very high volatility, speculative demand and significant regulatory and technology risks. For example, the Reserve Bank of India has repeatedly flagged cryptocurrencies as a risk to monetary stability.
Gold tends to be a store of value in turbulent times crypto is more of a speculative asset with high upside and high risk. For prudent investing, many advisers suggest allocating only a modest portion to crypto, and keeping traditional safe-assets like gold as part of a diversified portfolio.
