Silver prices also witnessed a sharp jump on Monday, surging by Rs 25,000 per kg to reach Rs 3,00,000 per kg in the domestic market. The strong move in silver mirrors global trends, where the white metal climbed nearly 2 percent to trade above $86 per ounce, extending its gains for a fourth consecutive session as investors sought protection against geopolitical and economic risks.

On the global front, gold prices gained close to 1 percent to trade around $5,150 per ounce on Monday, marking the highest level in over three weeks. The rally was driven by renewed tariff worries after Trump announced plans on Saturday to raise global import duties from 10 percent to 15 percent, following the US Supreme Court's rejection of his earlier "reciprocal tariffs" framework.
