  • Increase in the demand of gold in domestic market is another driving factor behind increase in gold price.
  • Dollar value is likely to ease further due to liquidity in market and it may affect gold price.

Gold price in Indian market has reached to Rs 30,000 per 10gm today. Gold price may reach to Rs 32000- 32,500 in short time and It may touch Rs 35,000 in one year.

All factors say that gold will remain in green zone. However, we may see downturn in gold price and it may tumble by Rs.3000.
