Patna: Silver and gold prices continued their upward trend on February 10, with silver rising by Rs 3,759 to reach Rs 2,57,424 per kilogram and gold climbing Rs 824 to Rs 1,55,700 per 10 grams, according to the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA).
The surge marks a sharp increase over the past two days, with silver now Rs 12,495 more expensive since February 8, when it was priced at Rs 2,44,929 per kilogram. Gold has also seen steady gains, up Rs 824 from Rs 1,54,876 per 10 grams on Monday.
IBJA officials note that gold and silver prices can vary across cities, as the listed rates exclude 3% GST, making charges, and jewellers’ margins. These benchmark rates are also used by the Reserve Bank of India to set prices for Sovereign Gold Bonds, while banks refer to them when determining gold loan rates.
In the broader context, gold has risen by Rs 22,505 since the end of 2025, when 10 grams of 24-carat gold was priced at Rs 1,33,195. Silver has increased by Rs 27,004 over the same period, from Rs 2,30,420 per kilogram to Rs 2,57,424. Both metals continue to approach record highs, with gold reaching Rs 1,76,121 and silver Rs 3,85,933 in the bullion market earlier this year.
