What's behind this
Jewellery shops saw strong footfall on Dhanteras, especially in Punjagutta, Somajiguda and Abids, as buyers mixed tradition with investment. One report links the surge to a decline in gold prices, while another notes that a rise in gold prices dampened sales. The price of 22‑carat gold was quoted at ₹1,31,500 for 10 grams. According to industry players, the fall in prices is expected to drive a 15‑20 % increase in sales volume, reflecting encouraging consumer sentiment and improving demand.
