New Delhi, December 23, 2025. Gold prices have set a new record in the domestic bullion market. Gold has crossed the ₹1.36 lakh level, registering a sharp increase of ₹2,163 in its price in just one day. This surge has drawn the attention of investors, jewelry traders, and common consumers alike.

Gold and silver prices today (December 22) have reached an all-time high for the second consecutive day. According to the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), gold rose by ₹2,163 to ₹1,36,133 per 10 grams. Previously on Monday, it was at ₹1,33,970.

Meanwhile, the price of 1 kg of silver increased by ₹1,523 to reach an all-time high of ₹2,09,250 per kg. Previously on Monday, its price was ₹2,07,727/kg. In ten days, silver has become more expensive by ₹23,762. On December 10, its price was ₹1,85,488 per kg.

Why are rates different in different cities?

The IBJA’s gold prices do not include 3% GST, making charges, or jewelers’ margins. Therefore, city rates differ from this. These rates are used by the RBI to set Sovereign Gold Bond rates. Many banks use it to set gold loan rates.

Signals for Investors
Experts advise maintaining a long-term perspective when investing in gold and opting for phased investments rather than a lump sum large amount. This will reduce risk and also balance the impact of price fluctuations.

Overall, gold crossing ₹1.36 lakh reflects the current market conditions and indicates that its shine as a safe investment is likely to remain for now.

New Delhi

New Delhi is the capital city of India, officially inaugurated in 1931 as the new seat of the British Indian government, replacing Calcutta. It was designed by British architects Edwin Lutyens and Herbert Baker, featuring wide boulevards and grand colonial-era buildings like the Rashtrapati Bhavan and India Gate. Today, it serves as the political and administrative heart of the country, blending its planned imperial history with the vibrant, ancient culture of the wider Delhi region.
