Gold, silver prices see a sharp surge today

The gold prices in Hyderabad experienced a significant surge on Friday, reaching the third-highest rate recorded this year.

Over the past few weeks, gold rates have experienced a fall fluctuating around Rs 70,000 for 10 grams of 24-carat gold and



approximately Rs 66,000 for 10 grams of 22-carat gold. This upward trend follows a volatile period for gold prices from August 13 to September 13, driven by global economic uncertainty and fluctuating demand.
