Gold rates and silver rates in India crashed massively on March 24th as international bullion prices extended their losses to the fourth week now. On Monday, in the early hours, spot gold has nosedived by 3-4% to trade below $4,400, while spot silver price dropped by 3-4% as well to strangle around $65 per ounce.
In the opening bell, MCX gold dropped by nearly 6% and erased Rs 1.37 lakh mark. While MCX silver dropped by nearly Rs 14,000 to hit below Rs 2.13 lakh mark.
Gold and silver prices in the country are down by 12% to 17% in March so far. Inflation fears have intensified with new threats exchanged between US, Israel and Iran. Major economies are currently facing difficulty in boosting liquidity and dollar has firmed around 100 mark.
The Iran war shows little sign of easing, with President Donald Trump threatening strikes on Iranian power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened, while Tehran warned it would target key US and Israeli assets across the region if its energy facilities were hit. Last week, gold dropped over 10% as surging oil prices fueled inflation concerns, prompting markets to price in a prolonged pause or potential rate hikes from major central banks, as per Trading Economics.
As per the data, traders are likely betting on a possible Federal Reserve rate hike by end of the current year amid fears of persistent inflation. Last week, major central banks like ECB, BOE and BOJ also kept rates unchanged, however, hinted at readiness to tighten policy further if inflationary pressures persist.

Gold & Silver Rates Today: Stronger Dollar & Yields Push Gold & Silver Prices Down
“Gold prices have witnessed significant weakness, slipping below 00, down 5.5% (~0), while on MCX prices have corrected sharply by around ₹11,000 to ₹133700 (~7.5%). The decline is largely driven by rising inflation risks, which are altering expectations around the rate cut cycle, with markets now pricing in a more prolonged higher interest rate environment. Additionally, persistent geopolitical tensions in Western Asia are keeping crude prices elevated, further reinforcing inflation concerns and weighing on gold sentiment. Despite gold’s traditional safe-haven appeal, the current macro setup—strong dollar and higher yields is exerting downward pressure on prices: Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst - Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities.

Gold Rates Today Live: Why Gold Prices Are Crashing?
According to analysts at Axis Securities, COMEX gold witnessed its steepest weekly decline in decades. The prices of precious metals have extended their losses after reports from Pentagon stated that they are deploying three warships and thousands of Marines to the region, prompting traders to price in a 50% chance of a Federal Reserve rate hike by October amid fears of sustained inflation. Analysts added that the safe-haven metal has fallen every week since the US-Israel strikes on Iran last month, pressured by rising Treasury yields, a stronger dollar, and profit-taking as investors liquidated positions to offset losses elsewhere.
