The Sri Lanka gold market is influenced by international prices, currency exchange movements, and seasonal demand. Import duties, dealer margins, and making charges also contribute to the retail price differences. Analysts note that steady international gold performance and controlled local inflation have supported moderate domestic rates in recent weeks.
Consumers are advised to compare live prices from reputed jewellers before making purchases. Checking hallmark certifications and ensuring transparency in making charges remain essential for retail buyers.
