Gold Prices Dip on Dhanteras 2025 — A Festive Treat for Buyers!

Balasahana Suresh
On the auspicious occasion of Dhanteras 2025, there's a welcome surprise for gold buyers across india — gold prices have dipped slightly, providing a much-needed breather after a prolonged rally in both domestic and international bullion markets.

Dhanteras, which marks the beginning of Diwali festivities, is traditionally considered the most auspicious day to buy gold, silver, and precious items. With today's price drop, it's an opportune moment for both investors and households preparing for festive purchases.

📉 What’s Behind the Price Dip?

Gold and silver have seen record-breaking highs in recent months due to:

· Geopolitical tensions

· Inflation fears

· Global economic uncertainties

· A weaker rupee

However, on October 18, 2025 (Dhanteras day), market corrections and profit booking by traders led to a moderate dip in prices, which is good news for consumers.
