Gold And Silver Prices Surge For Third Day In India Amid Global Uncertainty
Mumbai : Gold prices in India continued their upward trajectory for the third consecutive day on February 21, 2026, driven by heightened global uncertainty and safe-haven demand amid financial market volatility.
According to the report, 24-karat gold climbed by Rs 191 per gram to Rs 15,928, pushing the price for 10 grams to Rs 1,59,280-an increase of Rs 1,910 from the previous session. Over the past three trading days, 24-karat gold has surged by nearly Rs 50,800 per 100 grams. Similarly, 22-karat gold rose by Rs 175 per gram to Rs 14,600, with 10 grams now at Rs 1,46,000 (up Rs 1,750). For 18-karat gold, the rate increased by Rs 143 per gram to Rs 11,946, translating to Rs 1,19,460 for 10 grams (higher by Rs 1,430).
Silver also turned bullish after a flat session, jumping Rs 5,000 per kg to Rs 2,75,000. This equates to Rs 275 per gram, up Rs 5, with 10 grams costing Rs 2,750 (an increase of Rs 50).
The rally in domestic precious metals stems from global developments, including a significant US Supreme Court ruling against broad tariffs, which sparked market turbulence and prompted investors to flock to gold as a hedge. This momentum intensified after US President Donald Trump imposed a 10% tariff on imports from all countries shortly afterward.
These rates reflect the prevailing market conditions on Saturday, February 21, 2026, with no specific city-wise variations or international benchmarks detailed beyond the domestic per-gram and scaled figures.
