Silver prices are influenced by several factors, including international silver prices, the movement of the Indian rupee against the US dollar, industrial demand, investment demand and domestic market conditions.

Silver is used not only in jewellery and investment products but also in several industrial applications. Changes in international commodity markets can therefore affect domestic silver prices.

The current reference also notes that international prices and currency movements are important factors behind changes in India's silver prices.

What Should Buyers Check Before Buying Silver?

Before purchasing silver jewellery, coins, bars or utensils, buyers should check:

3. Making charges
4. GST and other applicable charges
5. Weight of the product
6. Invoice and product details
