Planning to Buy Gold or Silver? Get Price Predictions for Diwali and Year-End 2026 - ETV Bharat

AI desk brief

Gold and silver eased on Sept. 24, with MCX gold down 0.22% to Rs 1,50,960/10g and MCX silver off 0.95% to Rs 2,33,650/kg; international gold hovered around $4,318.90/oz after pressure from a stronger dollar and higher Treasury yields. Despite the pullback, Kedia Advisory’s Ajay Suresh Kedia sees both metals extending gains into Diwali/year-end 2026 on investment inflows, geopolitical uncertainty and tight supply.\n\nKedia projects gold at Rs 1,80,000/10g by Diwali or year-end 2026, about 18% above the reference price, supported by central-bank accumulation, ETF inflows, reserve diversification and potential rupee weakness. Silver is seen as higher-beta upside, with a target of roughly Rs 3,00,000/kg, or nearly 28% upside, on persistent supply deficits and demand from electronics, EVs, power infrastructure and clean energy.
