Ahmedabad: Gold prices soared by Rs 1,000 on Monday, reaching Rs 81,000 per 10 grams in Ahmedabad. The surge is driven by global market fluctuations, a depreciating rupee and strong demand during the wedding season. Jewellers and bullion traders report brisk buying despite the steep rates, as gold remains a preferred investment avenue.
Gold prices closed at Rs 80,000 on Saturday as the trading session ended. tnn
