In short

  • Gold price rose to Rs 293,300 per tola on Wednesday.
  • Silver price increased to Rs 4,425 per tola on the same day.
  • Both metals had fallen for three days before the Wednesday rise.

The Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers’ Association reported that both metals saw price gains on Wednesday in the Nepali capital. After three consecutive days of falling rates, gold rose by Rs 2,800 per tola, reaching Rs 293,300. Silver also moved higher, adding Rs 30 per tola to settle at Rs 4,425. The previous day's figures were Rs 290,500 for gold and Rs 4,395 for silver, indicating a modest rebound for both commodities. The Wednesday increase follows a Rs 3,800 decline in gold on Tuesday, according to the association. Market observers noted the reversal as a sign of stabilising demand in the domestic market. All three outlets – OnlineKhabar English, Khabarhub English and Republica – conveyed the same price levels and attributed the changes to the Federation’s latest pricing announcement.
