Factors that decide gold prices in Tiruchirappalli:
International Gold Price – International Gold Rate directly influences the Gold Rate in Trichy as well as in other parts of India. This is because India imports gold from abroad. If the international prices increase then naturally prices of gold in India will increase including that in Trichy.
American Currency – The International Gold price is in American Dollars. Now if the US Dollar weakens then the purchasing power of other countries will increase. This, in turn, will increase the International Gold Rate.
Indian Currency – A strong Indian rupee will be able to buy more gold which in turn lowers the gold rate in India. The opposite holds true as well. A weak Indian Rupee won’t buy much gold resulting in increased Gold Rate in Trichy.
Demand and Supply – Demand and supply of gold affects the gold rate in Trichy. Whenever the supply of gold decreases or demand increases its prices will increase. This can be noticed during recession, or around festive season when gold’s demand increases.
Monsoon – Monsoon affects the gold rate in Trichy. Rural India makes up for 60% of India’s gold consumption. Farmers buy more gold after a good harvest which in turn is affected by monsoon. An uptick in demand increases gold’s rate in Trichy.
Geopolitical Factors – They also affect gold prices. During geopolitical turmoil, such as war people invest in gold as it provides a safe haven for people’s savings.
Purity – Gold’s purity is marked in Karats (K) 24 K being the purest form. Therefore, buy 24 K gold coins, bullions, etc. if you plan to invest in it. However, we suggest you don’t buy jewelry for investment purposes as it is made from 22K gold or lower. Making charges and wastage reduce the potential profit that you might gain at the time of sale.
Hallmark – Government of India, through certified labs, verifies the purity of gold articles. These BIS hallmarked gold articles are more expensive compared to non-hallmarked articles.
Making Charges – Ensure that the jeweler is not charging you an exorbitant making fee.
Weight of the Gold Article – You must ensure that the price of gold article matches the weight as well. Sometimes, shopkeepers charge you for more weight.
Invoice – Invoices are proofs of purchase that list important information. This will ensure transparency and provide you assurance if something goes wrong.

You can invest in gold in the following ways:

It is really easy to invest in gold as the minimum weight of physical gold that can be bought is as low as 0.5 gram.
Through Gold ETF, you can trade physical gold through paper or on the internet. 1 Gold ETF unit is equivalent to 1 gram of 24 K gold. Gold ETFs are traded in money and not in actual gold making it a safer option when it comes to investing in Gold. Another advantage gold ETFs hold over physical gold is that you can buy or sell gold at same price across India.
One way Government of India provides securities to people is the Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs). These are denominated in the weight of the gold. SGBs allow customers to invest in gold without having to store it. Here, investors deal in cash alone. Reserve Bank of India issues SGBs.
Investors will get the market value of gold upon maturity of the security. They get periodical interest on the investment as well. The records of bonds are maintained by RBI or in demat form. This eliminates the risk of scrip loss.
