New Delhi: Gold and silver prices rose modestly on April 27, according to data released by the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA), reflecting continued strength in precious metal markets this year.
Marginal Daily Increase
The price of silver increased by Rs 278 to reach Rs 2,44,103 per kg, up from Rs 2,43,825 previously.
Gold also saw a slight uptick, with 10 grams of 24-carat gold rising by Rs 16 to Rs 1,51,495. On April 23, the same quantity was priced at Rs 1,51,479.
Strong Gains In 2026
Despite the modest daily movement, both metals have registered significant gains so far this year.
Gold prices have increased by around Rs 18,000 in 2026. On December 31, 2025, 10 grams of gold was priced at approximately Rs 1.33 lakh, compared with around Rs 1.51 lakh currently.
Silver, too, has surged by about Rs 10,000 per kg during the same period, rising from Rs 2.30 lakh at the end of 2025 to Rs 2.44 lakh now.
What Buyers Should Keep In Mind
Experts advise buyers to ensure authenticity and fair pricing while purchasing gold.
Consumers should look for jewellery bearing the hallmark certification issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards, which verifies purity.
They are also advised to cross-check prevailing market rates, as prices vary depending on purity levels such as 24-carat, 22-carat and 18-carat gold.
Analysts say the steady rise in prices reflects global trends, including demand for safe-haven assets, and expect volatility to continue in the coming months.
