New Delhi: Gold price in India hit a record high Rs69,640 per 10 grams on MCX on Wednesday tracking a sharp increase in international prices of the precious metal, driven by the high safe-haven demand amid escalating geopolitical tensions in Central Asia and the Russia-Ukraine war.
In the international market, spot gold was up 0.2 per cent at $2,283.76 per ounce in morning trade after touching an all-time high of $2,288.09 earlier in the session. Silver prices also surged by Rs1,700 to Rs80,700 per kg.
Bullion has hit record highs consecutively since Thursday.
