Gold Prices Plummet: Is Now the Right Time to Buy Jewelry or Invest?
•Gold prices have seen a significant fall due to international market instability, strong dollar, and rising interest rates.
•For personal use (weddings/festivals), buying jewelry now at lower prices could be profitable, saving money if prices rise later.
•For investment, experts suggest buying in phases (SIP method) as prices might fall further; jewelry has high making charges and is less ideal for pure investment than bars/coins.
•Always verify BIS hallmarking for purity and remember an additional 3% GST applies to gold and silver purchases.
•Long-term, gold prices are expected to rise with global economic uncertainty, but short-term fluctuations will continue.
