The prices of gold and silver in India are influenced by various factors, including the exchange rate of the rupee against the dollar, and global demand also plays a pivotal role in shaping the trends seen in the prices of precious metals.

In the international market, gold prices retreated from a five-month high in the previous session due to a strengthening U.S. dollar and Treasury yields in anticipation of significant economic data during the week. Investors were monitoring for any indications of a global impact resulting from the Middle East conflict, according to a report by the news agency Reuters.
