Good morning — here's where gold and silver stand this Thursday, 17 September 2026, the morning after the US Federal Reserve's rate decision.
In short (17 September 2026): 24K gold is around ₹1,53,440/10g and 22K around ₹1,40,650/10g; silver is about ₹2,45,000/kg. The US Fed raised interest rates by a quarter point and hinted at one more this year, which is keeping a lid on both metals — gold is holding steady while silver has drifted to a one-month low, so the near-term read is broadly sideways. These are indicative India reference levels — AT Jewels' live counter rate is the billing price.

What is moving the market this week
The big event was last night's US Federal Reserve meeting. The Fed raised interest rates by 0.25% — its first hike in three years — and, more importantly, its own projections pointed to one more increase before the year is out. That is a “hawkish” message, and it pushed US bond yields to their highest since 2007 and firmed the dollar. Higher yields and a stronger dollar usually weigh on gold and silver, because holding metal earns no interest.
What's interesting is how well gold has taken it. Rather than tumbling, gold slipped about a percent on the announcement and then steadied back near ₹1.53 lakh, helped by steady central-bank buying and safe-haven demand. Silver, which always swings harder than gold, took the bigger knock and eased to a one-month low. Closer to home, the rupee is holding around 96 to the dollar, and India's festival and wedding season is beginning to lift physical demand.
The near-term view
For families buying for a wedding or a festival, the honest read is broadly sideways for now. Gold is steady but has a soft ceiling while US rates stay high, so I wouldn't expect it to run away in a hurry; silver is the more unpredictable of the two and is sitting near a one-month low. There's another central-bank meeting in Japan on Friday that could add some two-way movement. My usual advice holds: buy by your need and your date, split a larger purchase into parts, and don't chase a single green or red day. This is a general market view, not trading advice.
Frequently asked
What is the gold rate today in India?
Today 24K gold is around ₹1,53,440 per 10g and 22K around ₹1,40,650 per 10g (indicative). Your final price depends on making charges, GST and AT Jewels' live counter rate at the time of billing.
What is the silver rate today?
Silver is about ₹2,45,000 per kg today (indicative), a touch lower after the US rate hike.
Will gold prices go up or down this week?
After the Fed's hike and its signal of one more to come, gold looks steady-to-soft rather than strongly rising — broadly sideways with a firm floor. Nobody can be certain about the days ahead, so buy to your own need and timeline rather than trying to time the market.
