AI desk brief

Indian gold and silver were lower on Oct. 14, with MCX Gold 4 Dec futures down about 0.25% at ₹148,086/10g and MCX Silver 4 Dec down 0.70% at ₹219,001/kg around midday. Retail 24K gold was quoted at ₹148,320/10g and silver 999 at ₹217,940/kg, with city-level rates mostly clustered around those levels ahead of Durga Puja demand.

The piece also notes gold has risen more than 75% so far this year, while silver has outpaced it on strong demand and currency effects, with rates up from roughly ₹78,600/kg in 2023-24 to above ₹240,000/kg in October 2026. For the desk, the main takeaway is a softer intraday tone in India into a seasonal buying window rather than a broader global catalyst.
