Gold Prices Drop Rs 4,000 in Two Days: Check Updated Rates

Gold Prices Drop by ₹4,000 in 48 Hours

SRINAGAR: Gold prices dropped by Rs 650 to Rs 71,650 per 10 grams in the local market here on Wednesday, continuing the retreat for the second day in a row due to weak demand from jewellers and import duty cut announced in the budget for 2024-25.

According to the All India Sarafa Association, the precious metal had closed at Rs 72,300 per 10 grams in the previous session on Tuesday after taking a hit of Rs 3,350.

Silver prices, however, remained flat at Rs 87,500 per kg in the local market.

Gold of 99.9 per cent and 99.5 per cent purity slumped by Rs 650 each to Rs 71,650 per 10 grams and Rs 71,300 per 10 grams, respectively.

Traders attributed the decline in gold prices to the government’s move to slash customs duties on a range of products, including gold and silver. The customs duty on gold and silver was cut from 15 per cent to 6 per cent.

In the past two sessions, gold prices have tanked by Rs 4000 per 10 grams.

“Gold and silver on domestic front languished in the previous session as the Finance Minister of India announced a cut in import duties taking the market by surprise.

“On the other hand, move on prices on Comex rose, increasing the disparity of it with the domestic prices,” Manav Modi, Senior Analyst, Commodity Research at Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, said.

Further, domestic prices could also take some time to digest the full impact of duty cut and get to parity with Comex, Modi added.

In the international markets, Comex gold was trading at USD 2,461.20 per ounce, up by USD 6 per ounce..

“Comex gold prices held above USD 2,400, breaking a four-day losing streak on Tuesday, as the market awaited clarity on the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) first interest rate cut.

“Gold continues to hold gains on Wednesday, trading above USD 2410 per ounce amid anticipation of upcoming US data releases that could support Fed rate cuts,” Kaynat Chainwala, AVP-Commodity Research, Kotak Securities, said.

Flash PMI data to be released later on Wednesday from major global economies will be closely watched for early insights into business activity in July, Chainwala said.

Silver was also marginally up at USD 29.38 per ounce in New York.

According to Pranav Mer, Vice President, EBG – Commodity & Currency Research at JM Financial Services, gold prices are trading in positively tracking gains in the overseas market and buying support at corrective levels after Tuesday’s sharp sell-off due to duty cuts.

Going ahead, traders’ focus will be on the US GDP data due on Thursday and the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) inflation data on Friday, which may give more clues on the Fed’s rate cut path, Mer added. (PTI)

Jewellers in Kashmir optimistic, expect boost in gold sales after custom duty slash announcement

Srinagar, Jul 24: With the slash in custom duty on gold and other metals, the investors and jewellers on Wednesday reacted positively with jewellers anticipating a potential boost in sales.

Many jewellers, who spoke to the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), said that with the announcement of slashing custom duty on Gold, silver and other metals, they are now hopeful of witnessing a boost in gold sales.

“Such level of scale down of rates for gold has happened after years. This is good for both consumers as well as for us. We now expect a rise in the gold sales,” said a jeweller in Srinagar.

Reacting to the announcement, a lady from Srinagar said that she did not know about the slashing of gold rates, but she was happy to know that the rates of gold had gone down.

“I don’t know exactly how much the price has been slashed on gold, but if it is so, it is very good. Maybe I can plan to buy more gold now,” she said.

Bashir Ahmad, President of gold dealers association Kashmir told KNO that the announcement is a welcome step that can pave ways for both investors and jewellers.

“It has been the long pending demand, and today we are happy that an announcement has been made in this regard. If people were earlier purchasing gold for Rs 10 now they will make a purchase for Rs 15,” he said.

Notably, the ongoing season in Kashmir witnesses too many marriages with the majority of the purchases happening for gold.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had on Tuesday proposed a reduction in basic customs duty on gold and silver to 6% and platinum to 6.4%.

The reduction in the basic customs duty on gold, silver, and platinum has been a long-pending demand of the gems and jewellery industry.

On Tuesday, the government reduced customs duties on various products, including gold, silver, and critical minerals, to lower input costs, enhance value addition, boost export competitiveness, cut smuggling, and stimulate domestic manufacturing—(KNO)

Kulgam, Jul 24 (KNO): The education sector in South Kashmir’s Kulgam district is struggling due to numerous vacant key positions, including the Chief Education Officer (CEO), Deputy CEO, and 16 principals, among 170 posts, thereby impacting the quality of education in the district severely.

Figures accessed by the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) reveal that one position each of Chief Education Officer, Deputy CEO, 16 Principals, 124 Lecturers, 3 ZEOs, 4 ZPEOs, and 21 Headmasters are lying vacant in Kulgam district.

“The Chief Education Officer retired in May this year, and the CEO of Anantnag has been assigned the additional charge of CEO Kulgam. The position of Dy CEO Kulgam has been vacant for many years, with the DDO powers of Dy CEO Kulgam currently assigned to a senior HSS Principal,” officials said.

“In Kulgam district, there are 26 higher secondary schools (HSSs), but only 10 have principals, leaving 16 HSSs, including GHSS Kulgam, GHSS Yaripora, and HSS Qaimoh, without heads,” officials said.

To address the crisis, School Education Department has begun the process of hiring 58 allocated ‘Cluster Resource Coordinators’ to provide temporary teaching support in high and higher secondary schools, but these positions have not yet been filled.

Officials further said that there are around six education zones in Kulgam, three of which are vacant: DH Pora, Qaimoh, and Kulgam.

Parents criticize new school timings amid imminent heatwave

Video criticizing education department surfaces online

Srinagar, July 24 (KB): Parents across the Kashmir Valley have expressed strong discontent with the recently revised school timings introduced by the education department.

A couple of videos critical of the new schedule have gone viral, sparking widespread debate and concern among the community.

As per the Kashmir Bulletin (KB), changes, implemented at the start of this academic term, have been met with resistance from parents who argue that the new timings are inconvenient and detrimental to their children’s well-being.

Many videos, which have garnered significant attention on social media platforms, feature several parents voicing their frustrations and calling for a reconsideration of the policy.

Adding to the concerns is the forecast of a severe heatwave in the Kashmir region over the next 3-4 days. Weather models have lowered the probability of rain, predicting dry weather to prevail. Some temperature records may be broken during this time, compounding the difficulties faced by students attending school during the hottest part of the day.

One parent speaking in a video, as per KB said, the new timings are not feasible for us. Our children are having to wake up too early, and it’s affecting their health and concentration in class. What is the point of changing the timing from 8 AM to 1 PM? At 1 PM, it’s the hottest part of the day, and when children come home, they are exhausted.

Another parent, while criticizing the school education department, said, congratulations to the director of school education, my child will offer Fajr namaz tomorrow and then go to school starting away from the masjid.

Many parents echoed similar sentiments, pointing out that the altered schedule is causing logistical challenges for working parents and disrupting family routines.

When contacted for comments, the officials school education department did not respond to repeated calls and messages.—(Kashmir Bulletin)
