Today, on Saturday 8 March, gold has become cheaper. On the day of International Women's Day and before Holi, the price of gold is continuously falling. The rate of gold has fallen by up to Rs 300. In the big cities of the country, the price of 24-carat gold is around Rs 87,150 and 22-carat gold is trading above Rs 79,800.

The main reason for the fall in gold prices is the vigilance of investors and possible changes in global economic policies. In particular, possible changes in US tax policies and important economic data, such as the employment rate and unemployment rate, are creating instability in the market. Due to this, investor sentiment is weakening, due to which the demand for gold is decreasing and prices are falling.
