Kharcha Pani | Episode 1265 | 30th January, 2026
Before the Union Budget on February 1, Indian markets were already on edge. Nearly ₹4 lakh crore was wiped out as equities slipped sharply, while gold and silver prices crashed, leaving investors confused — should you buy, sell, or wait? In this episode of Kharcha Paani, Shruti breaks down why gold fell nearly 6%, silver plunged up to 12%, and why Gold and Silver ETFs saw even deeper cuts. From profit booking and US Fed expectations to ETF costs, budget anxiety, rupee weakness, crude oil prices, and global risk sentiment — we explain what exactly spooked the markets and why metal and steel stocks dragged indices lower. Most importantly, what should investors do in such volatile times? Watch for a simple, clear explanation of today’s market turmoil and what lies ahead.
