On Sunday, the first trading day of the week, domestic gold prices recorded a sharp rise, while silver prices dipped slightly. The Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers’ Association reported that fine gold increased by Rs 2,300 per tola (11.663 grams), reaching Rs 305,800 per tola, up from Rs 303,500 on Friday. Meanwhile, silver declined modestly by Rs 15 per tola, falling from Rs 5,000 to Rs 4,985 per tola. Traders attribute the increase in gold prices to sustained demand and prevailing market trends, while silver’s minor decrease reflects short-term fluctuations in investor preferences and trading activity.
