India’s gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have reached a historic milestone, crossing $10 billion in assets under management. The surge comes as a weaker rupee and global uncertainty push investors toward precious metals as a hedge (Times of India).
Gold ETFs : The Trend
Gold has always been a safe haven in India, but this growth tells a deeper story. Traditionally, households relied on jewelry and bullion, often passed through generations. The rise of ETFs marks a psychological shift from physical storage to digital portfolios, showing the financialization of savings where trust is moving from family traditions to regulated markets.
Looking ahead, analysts believe inflows could continue if inflation stays elevated and the rupee remains volatile. However, the caution is clear: gold ETFs provide stability but do not generate income like equities or bonds. Overexposure could mean missing out on growth opportunities.
This milestone shows gold is no longer just a cultural asset. It is becoming a strategic financial instrument — one that must be balanced carefully in portfolios as India’s investment landscape evolves.
