Today’s Gold Rate in India October 8: Gold prices steady in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru (Metro Cities)
BusinessLine 1 hr ago·8 Oct 2026, 8:18 am
Gold prices remained steady across major Indian metro cities on October 8, maintaining a consistent rate for both 22 and 24-carat varieties. This stability comes as the yellow metal faces pressure from a stronger US dollar and rising US Treasury yields, which typically make gold more expensive for foreign investors.
For Indian investors, this price stability offers a respite from recent volatility. It suggests that domestic demand is holding firm despite global headwinds. While the broader market sentiment remains cautious, the steady rate provides a predictable environment for those looking to invest in physical gold or gold-linked financial instruments.
Investors should keep a close watch on the US Federal Reserve's upcoming policy decisions and global geopolitical developments. Any significant shift in these areas could trigger renewed volatility in gold prices. Monitoring the trend in the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar will also be crucial for understanding future price movements.
