Is This Right Time to Invest in Gold?

Guys, is it a good time to invest in gold? What do you think?

Yes, gold looks attractive right now, but the decision depends on how much of it you already hold.

As of September 8th 2025, gold prices touched ₹1.07 lakh per 10 grams, up 35% year to date, with a 3.82% rise in the past week alone.

Here is what you should keep in mind before investing in gold:

  1. Gold remains one of the most secure investments. It is less volatile than Indian stocks and has delivered steady returns over time.
  2. During every major equity crash in India, gold gained 10–30%, making it a strong hedge against market risk.
  3. If your gold exposure has already hit its limit, you may book partial profit. If not, you can add some allocation instead of rushing into heavy buying.
  4. Preferably choose between Gold ETFs or digital gold. These are cost-effective and remove the burden of storage linked with jewellery or coins.

For me, the real value of gold lies in diversification and stability and not chasing quick gains.
