Saharanpur: MalikTimes publishes a gold rate page and a silver rate page for Indian buyers, with 24K and 22K prices listed city by city. The latest daily update, for October 20, put 24K gold near Rs 1.48 lakh per 10 grams, with silver easing.
That is a lot of money for a household planning a wedding. MalikTimes ran a piece this month on how jewellery buyers are handling it, and the main point is that many families had not budgeted for gold at this price. A Rs 1,000 difference between two cities, or between a morning rate and an evening one, matters more now than it did two years ago.
The rate pages are only half of it. The newsroom also writes about the reasons behind the daily number, such as US inflation data, the odds of a Fed hike, and whether MCX gold can hold the Rs 1.50 lakh level that traders are watching. Readers who want to understand a move, and not just see it, can click from the rate to the story.
“Most people who check the gold rate are not traders,” said Parvez Ali, Founder and Editor of MalikTimes. “They are somebody’s father looking at a ring for a wedding in three weeks. They want today’s number for their city, and then a plain answer on whether to buy now or wait. We try to give both, and we don’t pretend to know where the price is going.”
