Historical Background
Mid‑2024 saw global inflation and a weakening US dollar driving investors toward precious metals, pushing Indian gold‑silver rates upward. A policy shift by the RBI in 2025 spiked silver prices, but this week’s data suggests a normalization trend.
Why This Matters
BozokMedia analysis shows that silver, though higher, is still ₹1.83 lakh/kg below its lifetime peak, offering a compelling entry point for investors. Gold’s steadier rise indicates sustained consumer confidence in both jewelry and investment demand.
"Silver’s current price sits roughly 12% below its historic high, presenting an attractive long‑term investment window," says financial analyst Ravi Sharan.
