It gradually increased, crossing ₹75,000 on August 6, and then touched ₹75,200 and ₹75,760 in the following days. This steady rise has significantly impacted jewellers, especially with the wedding and festive seasons approaching. Last week, gold prices saw a minor correction. On Tuesday, the price dropped by ₹640 and again by ₹40 on Wednesday, reaching ₹84,320 per sovereign. However, the trend reversed by Thursday and Friday, and today (October 14, 2025), the Chennai gold market witnessed a massive jump.
