The purchasing power of silver does not change during inflation, making it a more attractive investment option than currency
High demand for silver also increases the prices, while oversupply lowers the silver prices

Changes in government policies and taxation rules also directly influence silver rates, like customs duties, local taxes, etc.
Fluctuations in the prices of crude oil also lead to movement in silver prices since changes in crude oil prices influence the silver mining costs
Geopolitical events or disturbances like wars, elections or disruptions in the supply of silver also influence the silver price
When purchasing a silver item, look for stamps or hallmarks that indicate purity, such as ‘925’ for sterling silver. You can also use a magnet test since silver is not magnetic.
Apart from these tests, you can also do a nitric acid test. For this, you need to put a drop of nitric acid on silver and check the reaction. If the silver is pure, it will not react with this acid. Also, you can reach out to a trustworthy jeweller to purchase silver and ask for certificates of authenticity and invoices.
Yes, you need to pay a Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 3% on silver purchases. You also need to pay a GST of 5% on the making charges of the silver item.
To invest in silver, you can purchase silver coins, bullions, silver mining stocks, silver ETFs, etc.
