Silver Price Surges 2.7% to Cross ₹2.67 Lakh on MCX, Further Gains Anticipated

Precious Metals Update: February 25, 2026

Silver price rose 2.7% to ₹2,67,990 per kg on MCX, and gold price advanced 0.7% to ₹1,61,072 per 10 grams on the same platform, driven by investor sentiment seeking safe-haven assets amidst lingering uncertainty over U.S. tariff policies.

International markets saw spot silver climb 1% to $88.23 per ounce, while spot gold gained 0.5% to $5,174.76 per ounce. U.S. gold futures for April delivery were up 0.3% at $5,192.20. Spot platinum jumped 2.1% to $2,212.72 per ounce, and palladium advanced 1.4% to $1,793.68 per ounce.

The reopening of Chinese markets and rising policy uncertainty in the United States continue to support demand for gold and silver. Geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, are also contributing to the upward trend in precious metal prices.
