Gold prices differ every day because of numerous factors such as production costs, region-specific taxes, excise duties, labour expenses, and a supplementary Goods and Services Tax (GST) on the final product. These important factors lead to a significant variation in gold in several parts of the country.
The precious yellow metal has long been considered a hedge for hard financial situations. Gold is also observed as a symbol of prosperity and wealth, especially in Indian society. That is why, India’s retail market has a great demand for gold, making the country among the biggest consumer of the precious yellow metal in the world.
