CHENNAI: The price of gold in Chennai hit an all-time high by increasing Rs 720 per sovereign on September 9 (Tuesday). The yellow metal is now being sold at Rs 81,200.
Accordingly, gold price per gram has increased by Rs 90, with a gram now costing Rs 10,150.
On September 8 (Monday), the price fell by Rs 280 per sovereign in the morning, but surged again in the afternoon by Rs 720 per sovereign, to Rs 80,480.
While the gold price has been inching forward for most of the year, what triggered the recent surge is the trade war that US President Donald Trump unleashed on the world, including India.
