On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), the most-active October gold futures fell ₹148 or 0.14% to ₹1.09 lakh per 10 grams in a turnover of 15,852 lots.
The December contract also slipped ₹111 or 0.10% to ₹1.10 lakh per 10 grams in 5,656 lots.
In international markets, Comex gold for December delivery was down 0.10% at $3,682.72 per ounce.
Market participants are focused on the Fed’s upcoming decision, with traders largely expecting a 25 basis points rate cut amid signs of a slowing US labour market. Analysts noted that inflation readings, industrial production, and retail sales data due this week could provide further direction for the precious metals market.
Manav Modi, Analyst – Precious Metals Research at Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said gold witnessed profit booking after hitting all-time highs, but losses remained limited due to weak US jobs data, rupee depreciation, and expectations of monetary easing.
Darshan Desai, CEO of Aspect Bullion & Refinery, added that optimism about gold’s long-term outlook continues, with some analysts projecting prices could move towards $5,000, supported by economic uncertainty, a weaker dollar, and steady ETF inflows.
Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, alongside ongoing US-China talks in Madrid, are also adding to market caution. Traders expect gold to remain range-bound until the Fed’s decision provides clearer signals.
