The gold market in Chennai witnessed an upward trend today, reflecting steady global cues and festive-season buying interest. Rates for different karats of gold climbed, signaling renewed momentum for the yellow metal.
Latest Gold Prices in Chennai (6 September 2025)
- 24K Gold (Pure Gold): ₹10,915 per gram – up by ₹153
- 22K Gold: ₹10,005 per gram – up by ₹140
- 18K Gold: ₹8,285 per gram – up by ₹115
The increase comes amid robust investor demand, a weaker rupee against the US dollar, and concerns around global economic stability, which traditionally drive safe-haven buying in gold.
Why Gold Prices Are Rising in Chennai
Market experts suggest that the combination of rising international bullion rates and local festive demand in Tamil Nadu has contributed to today’s price surge. With the festive season and wedding purchases around the corner, jewelers in Chennai anticipate higher consumer footfalls in the coming weeks.
Additionally, the U.S. dollar index movement and crude oil price volatility are influencing gold’s appeal as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.
Outlook for Buyers and Investors
For retail buyers in Chennai, today’s uptick in prices may encourage early festive purchases before further fluctuations occur. For investors, analysts believe gold will continue to play a key role in portfolio diversification as global markets remain uncertain.
