class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The gold price today in India is being determined by the interplay of two key macro factors: falling US Treasury yields and a weaker US dollar. Both variables typically correlate positively with higher gold prices, as lower yields reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion and a softer dollar makes gold less expensive in foreign currency terms, spurring global buying.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background: #1F4E79; color: #ffffff;\">\n<th>Contract<\/th>\n<th>LTP (Rs)<\/th>\n<th>Change (%)<\/th>\n<th>Open (Rs)<\/th>\n<th>High (Rs)<\/th>\n<th>Low (Rs)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MCX Gold October 2026<\/td>\n<td>1,58,084<\/td>\n<td>+0.06%<\/td>\n<td>1,58,008<\/td>\n<td>1,58,750<\/td>\n<td>1,58,008<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MCX Silver September 2026<\/td>\n<td>2,39,338<\/td>\n<td>+1.08%<\/td>\n<td>2,38,500<\/td>\n<td>2,41,167<\/td>\n<td>2,38,500<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MCX Gold Mini October<\/td>\n<td>1,58,076<\/td>\n<td>+0.14%<\/td>\n<td>1,57,949<\/td>\n<td>1,58,703<\/td>\n<td>1,57,501<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MCX Silver Mini August<\/td>\n<td>2,40,826<\/td>\n<td>+1.18%<\/td>\n<td>2,38,000<\/td>\n<td>2,41,963<\/td>\n<td>2,38,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in?utm_source=blogs&amp;utm_medium=gold-price-today-aug20\"><strong>Click Here &#8211; Get Free Investment Predictions<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Driving_the_Gold_Price_Today\"><\/span><strong>What Is Driving the Gold Price Today?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"US_Treasury_Bond_Buyback_Announcement\"><\/span><strong>US Treasury Bond Buyback Announcement<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The gold price today is getting its primary lift from the US Treasury Department&#8217;s decision to double its buyback of longer-term government bonds to $4 billion. This policy action reduces long-end Treasury yields, which compresses the dollar&#8217;s yield advantage over non-interest-bearing assets like gold. Lower yields typically translate directly into higher gold prices in global markets, and today&#8217;s MCX prices reflect this global trend.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dollar_Index_Weakness\"><\/span><strong>Dollar Index Weakness<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The US dollar index has weakened in today&#8217;s global session, which is a direct positive for gold prices. Gold and the dollar have a historically inverse relationship: when the dollar weakens, gold denominated in dollars becomes more affordable for international buyers, which stimulates demand and pushes prices higher. The rupee has also strengthened 19 paise against the dollar today, consistent with the broad dollar weakness theme.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Silvers_Strong_Performance\"><\/span><strong>Silver&#8217;s Strong Performance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Silver is outperforming gold today, with the September futures contract up 1.08% against gold&#8217;s 0.06% rise. This is partly because silver has stronger industrial demand drivers, including solar panel manufacturing and electric vehicle components. When investors expect improved global economic activity, silver tends to outperform gold. Silver ETFs like SILVERBEES and SBISILVER are up over 4% in today&#8217;s stock market session, reflecting the same underlying strength.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Global_Geopolitical_Context\"><\/span><strong>Global Geopolitical Context<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Safe-haven demand for precious metals has been a persistent undercurrent in 2026. Gold has traditionally been bought as a store of value and portfolio hedge during periods of elevated geopolitical risk and macroeconomic uncertainty. The gold price today benefits from this structural demand even when specific triggers are macro-economic rather than geopolitical.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\"><strong>Track MCX Gold and Silver Prices with Univest Screener<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gold_vs_Silver_Price_Today_Which_Is_Performing_Better\"><\/span><strong>Gold vs Silver Price Today: Which Is Performing Better?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>On a percentage basis, silver is clearly the stronger performer today. MCX Silver September futures rose 1.08% compared to Gold October&#8217;s 0.06% gain. The gold-to-silver ratio, which had been elevated reflecting gold&#8217;s relative outperformance in earlier periods, is compressing today as silver catches up. This ratio compression is a common pattern when industrial demand expectations improve alongside precious metal sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>For investors comparing gold ETFs vs silver ETFs as vehicles for exposure: silver ETFs on the NSE have gained over 4% today while gold ETFs are up over 2%. The higher gain in ETFs versus the underlying futures reflects the broader equity market support for both categories in today&#8217;s session.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gold_Rate_in_Major_Indian_Cities_on_August_20_2026\"><\/span><strong>Gold Rate in Major Indian Cities on August 20, 2026<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Spot gold prices in Indian cities typically follow a combination of MCX futures pricing and local demand-supply dynamics, including import duties and jeweller premiums. Investors should note that the gold rate as quoted by jewellers includes making charges and GST, which are not reflected in MCX futures prices.

An earlier morning reading cited Rs 2,39,850 per kg, up 1.29% around 9:45 AM IST. Silver is outperforming gold today.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_gold_price_rising_today\"><\/span><strong>Why is gold price rising today?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Gold price today is rising because of two key factors: falling US Treasury yields (after the US Treasury doubled its bond buyback to $4 billion) and a weaker US dollar. Both factors increase gold&#8217;s relative attractiveness as a non-yielding, non-dollar asset. Global safe-haven demand is also a supporting factor.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_silver_rising_more_than_gold_today\"><\/span><strong>Why is silver rising more than gold today?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Silver is rising more than gold today because of its dual nature as both a precious and industrial metal. Improving industrial demand expectations, particularly from the solar panel and electric vehicle sectors, add an extra premium to silver&#8217;s move. When global growth sentiment improves, silver typically outperforms gold.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_impact_of_the_US_bond_buyback_on_gold_price\"><\/span><strong>What is the impact of the US bond buyback on gold price?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> The US Treasury doubled its longer-term bond buyback to $4 billion, which reduced long-end Treasury yields. Lower yields compress the opportunity cost of holding gold (which pays no interest), making gold more attractive relative to interest-bearing assets. This is why gold prices rose globally on August 20, 2026.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_10_grams_of_gold_price_in_Indian_rupees_today\"><\/span><strong>What is 10 grams of gold price in Indian rupees today?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> MCX Gold October futures price today is approximately Rs 1,58,084 per 10 grams as of the trading day on August 20, 2026.
