Gold prices kicked off the week on a sharply bearish note, extending last week's decline and rattling bullion markets. The fall comes even as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to simmer, a factor that typically boosts safe-haven demand.

Meanwhile, silver prices also moved lower. Silver slipped by Rs 5 to Rs 280 per gram, while the white metal dropped Rs 5,000 to Rs 2,80,000 per kilogram.

Globally, gold traded around $5,100 per ounce on Monday, weighed down by a stronger US dollar and fading hopes that the US Federal Reserve will cut interest rates soon. These factors have dampened investor appetite for bullion, offsetting the usual safe-haven buying triggered by the escalating conflict in the Middle East.

"The recent plunge in domestic gold prices is mainly due to a stronger US dollar and rising US Treasury yields, which typically pressure precious metals globally. Additionally, profit booking after the sharp rally to record highs and expectations that the US Federal Reserve may delay rate cuts have triggered short-term corrections in gold and silver," said Mr. Prithviraj Kothari,MD at RiddiSiddhi Bullions Ltd., President of India Bullion and Jewellers Association Ltd.
