The surge pushed investment\u2019s share of total gold consumption in India to an all-time high.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">Sachin Jain, CEO of WGC India, said gold has increasingly become a mainstream asset class as more investors diversify their portfolios. \u201cEven people with little prior exposure are adding gold to their holdings. We believe investors\u2019 interest in gold will continue and grow in the coming quarters,&#8221; Jain noted.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">He said the festive and wedding seasons helped lift sentiment after a sluggish start to the year, when jewellery demand had remained muted due to high prices. Despite this, India saw record investment demand, reflecting a clear shift from ornamental to investment-driven buying.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Globally too, gold had a historic quarter, with total demand reaching 1,313 tonnes, the highest ever recorded. Of this, investment demand accounted for 524 tonnes, highlighting a global preference for gold as a safe asset amid economic uncertainty and volatile markets.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">In India, investment demand touched 91.6 tonnes, up 74.5% by value, totalling about Rs 88,970 crore, led largely by purchases of bullion, bars, coins, and an increasing share of exchange-traded funds (ETFs).<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">Jain said while jewellery consumption has softened worldwide due to elevated prices, investors\u2019 growing confidence in gold\u2019s long-term value is reshaping the market. \u201cThis quarter has clearly marked a turning point \u2014 gold is no longer seen just as jewellery but as a vital part of wealth preservation,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Varun Yadav\" title=\"Varun Yadav\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2025\/02\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-02-11-at-14.38.33-2025-02-47cdd4fd31681cc3efe5087cb8bd1418.jpeg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/varun-yadav-28203.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Varun Yadav<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Varun Yadav is a Sub Editor at News18 Business Digital.
