The major demand for gold in this city stems from the rural areas, thriving on agriculture. Naturally, a good monsoon brings in a good season for gold trade as well. Besides the cultural significance, locals invest heartily in gold, considering it as a hedge against inflation.
However, the reducing gold purchase power of the rural fabric has been an area of concern over the past few years.
Gold rates in Mangalore depend on a variety of domestic as well as international factors. Among the domestic factors lie festivity schedule, state taxes, octroi, demand-supply equations, interest rates trend, making charges, purity of gold (24 carat, 22 carat, and so on) and weight. Similarly, international factors include the valuation of global currencies such as the US dollar, international gold prices, foreign trade policies, and fluctuations in the international gold market.
