Due to fluctuating tax rates and other extra costs imposed by state governments, gold prices in India can differ dramatically from state to state. Buyers will have to spend more on gold jewellery since its pricing also takes into account factors like manufacturing costs on intricate jewellery and higher GST rates.
The recent US data prompted optimism for a pause in the pace of rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. The weaker dollar is likely the key driver propelling gold prices higher.
