In the current year, silver prices have given returns of more than 80 percent.
On Wednesday, silver prices had created a stir from New York to New York. Where silver crossed $ 50 per ounce for the first time in the international market. On the other hand, the price of silver in Delhi’s bullion market also reached the level of Rs 1.63 lakh. Which is not a small incident. The special thing is that silver is currently the second largest asset after platinum, which has given a return of more than 80 percent in the year 2025. The special thing is that neither the stock market, nor gold, nor Bitcoin have been successful in achieving such a feat.
Experts believe that further increase in silver prices may be seen in the coming days. The reason for this is reduction in production and increase in industrial demand. Apart from this, demand is being seen from silver ETFs. Geopolitical and economic uncertainties are also doing their work. There is also a possibility of a fall in the dollar index and a cut in interest rates by the Fed.
In such a situation, further increase in silver prices may be seen in the coming days. Although the price of silver in the futures market of the country has come down from the record high to about Rs 7,500, but it is being considered as short term profit booking. Let us also tell you how silver has left the stock market, Bitcoin and Gold behind. Also, how much is silver lagging behind platinum in terms of returns?
How much return did silver give?
Silver prices in the country’s capital Delhi came down to Rs 1.63 lakh on October 9. An increase of Rs 6 thousand was seen in the prices of silver in Delhi. If we talk about the current year, an increase of Rs 73,300 has been seen in the prices of silver. On the last trading day of last year, the price of silver was seen at Rs 89,700 per kg. This means that the price of silver has seen an increase of about 82 percent in the current year.
Bitcoin price increased by 32 percent
On the other hand, if we talk about Bitcoin, there has been a growth of about 32 percent in the current year. The special thing is that in recent times there has been a rise in the prices of Bitcoin. On the last trading day of last year, the price of Bitcoin was below one lakh dollars. But on October 9, the price of Bitcoin was $1,23,354.87. Whereas on the last trading day of last year, the price of Bitcoin was at $93,429.20. This means that in the current year the price of Bitcoin has seen an increase of 32 percent.
Gold also lags behind in terms of giving returns
In terms of giving returns, gold is also far behind compared to silver. The price of gold in Delhi bullion market is at a record Rs 1,26,600. But on the last trading day of last year, gold was seen at Rs 78,950 per gram. This means that the price of gold has seen an increase of Rs 47,650 per ten grams. This means that gold in Delhi bullion market has given 60 percent return to investors in the current year.
Even the stock market is nothing compared to silver.
The one that has done the most in the current year is the stock market. Which has not given any special return to the investors. If we look at the figures, Bombay Stock Exchange’s main index Sensex has given only 5 percent return to the investors. On the last trading day of last year, the Sensex was at 78,139.01 points, which reached 82,172.10 points on October 9. On the other hand, Nifty has given a return of 6.50 percent to the investors. On the last trading day of last year, Nifty was at 23,644.80 points, which increased to 25,181.80 points on October 9.
Platinum gave the highest returns
There is only one asset which has given the highest returns to investors than silver. That asset is platinum, which has given returns of 87 percent to investors. If we look at the data, the price of platinum in the international market was $ 903.83 per ounce on the last trading day of last year, which increased to a record level of $ 1,694.10 per ounce on October 9.
What do experts say?
Anuj Gupta, Director of Wealth Management, said that silver prices may rise in the coming days. He said that the global supply is very less, while there is a significant increase in industrial demand. Apart from this, due to geopolitical tension and economic crisis, there is an increase in demand for precious metals. There is no doubt that by the end of the year, silver prices can give more than double returns to investors.

On the other hand, a big fall is being seen in the prices of silver in the futures market on October 10. The special thing is that during the trading session, the prices of silver have fallen by about Rs 9000 from the record level. On October 9, the price of silver had reached Rs 1,53,388.
