Akshaya Tritiya 2025: Gold is often seen as a safe asset during times of market volatility. Its value endures through geopolitical tensions, tariff wars, economic challenges, and macro-level uncertainty. According to a report by ET citing Ventura Securities, gold has appreciated by over 200% in the last decade, and it has delivered a 30% return since the last Akshaya Tritiya.
The ET report, citing Ventura Securities, notes that gold traded around Rs 73,240 per 10 grams for 24Kt during Akshaya Tritiya in 2024, and has now surged to Rs 94,000–Rs 95,000 per 10 grams in 2025.
Over a longer period, the gains are even more remarkable, with gold prices increasing by over 200% from Rs 30,182 per 10 grams during Akshaya Tritiya 2014.
Gold Price Outlook 2025
Mr. Deveya Gaglani, Senior Research Analyst- Commodities, Axis Securities, commented on the impressive growth of MCX Gold prices over the past three years, with double-digit returns for investors. He noted that the first four months of 2025 have been one of the strongest starts for gold investors in over a decade, with prices rising nearly 25%.
Many investors purchase gold on Akshaya Tritiya, regarded as an auspicious day for acquiring gold as a symbol of wealth and security.
He said those who invested in gold during the last Akshaya Tritiya have seen returns of more than 31%. Gold has solidified its status as a safe-haven asset this year, especially after the tariff war between the USA and China shook the financial market. Investors turned to gold for refuge due to economic uncertainty.
Gaglani also highlighted other factors supporting the bullish case for gold, such as central bank purchases, a correction in the dollar index, and geopolitical tensions. With gold prices approaching overbought levels, he recommended that investors consider buying gold in a staggered manner if prices correct by 5-10%.
He stated that the current risk-reward ratio is unfavorable at these record levels. In a bullish scenario, if prices hold above Rs 100,000, they could reach 110,000 by the next Akshaya Tritiya. Conversely, prices may consolidate around the 87,000 level on the downside.
Satish Dondapati, Fund Manager at Kotak Mahindra AMC, pointed out that after reaching a record high, gold prices have recently dropped due to profit-taking and renewed interest in the U.S. dollar. In the short term, gold’s appeal will depend on upcoming economic data, including US inflation and employment figures, which will be crucial in determining the Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rates.
However, the long-term outlook, he said, remains bullish, supported by strong central bank purchases and geopolitical uncertainties. Silver prices have also shown resilience due to ongoing industrial demand and their status as a safe-haven investment. The long-term trend for silver remains upward, bolstered by industrial demand, lower interest rate expectations, and continued economic uncertainties.
