On Sunday, the price of gold in Nepal surged by Rs 1,400 per tola, reaching an unprecedented high of Rs 167,400 in the domestic market. This significant increase marks the highest price for gold ever recorded in Nepal, highlighting the growing demand and potential volatility in precious metal prices.
According to the Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers’ Association, gold was traded at Rs 166,000 per tola just two days prior, illustrating a notable jump within a short timeframe. Factors contributing to this rise may include global market trends, currency fluctuations, and increased local demand.
In addition to gold, the price of silver also saw an uptick, climbing to Rs 2,085 per tola. This represents a rise of Rs 15 from Friday’s price of Rs 2,070 per tola. The increases in both gold and silver prices reflect broader economic conditions and consumer behaviors in the country.
As the market continues to react to various economic indicators and geopolitical factors, these price changes may influence consumer buying decisions and investment strategies in the jewelry and precious metals sectors.
