Gold prices in India rebounded to ₹15,131 on May 6 after falling to ₹14,918 on May 5, signalling a recovery following the recent correction. The 24K rate had previously eased to ₹15,066 on April 30 after slipping from ₹15,300 on April 28 and ₹15,137 on April 29, reflecting sustained volatility after the strong rally seen earlier in April.

Earlier, prices had climbed sharply from ₹15,148 on April 9 to ₹15,300 on April 10, before rising further to ₹15,535 on April 15 and peaking at ₹15,577 on April 16. However, profit booking emerged thereafter, with prices easing to ₹15,420 on April 17 and stabilising around ₹15,529 on April 20–21 before the broader correction set in.

Despite the recent rebound, gold prices continue to remain volatile and sensitive to shifts in global sentiment, currency movements, and broader market trends.
