Kathmandu, December 20, 2025: The most recent trend in Nepal gold price reveals a big increase. The value of gold owned by the Nepal Rastra Bank has gone up by more than 71% in the last year. This rise is mostly due to increasing gold prices, not because of an increase in the physical amount of gold.

The central bank’s most recent financial report says that the entire value of its gold holdings is now roughly Rs 210 billion, up from about Rs 123 billion at the same time last year. Even if the value of gold has gone up a lot, the amount of gold reserves has stayed around the same.

Stable Gold Reserves, Higher Valuation

Nepal Rastra Bank now possesses almost 8 tons of gold, which has been the same for a few quarters. The rise in the price of gold in Nepal is closely linked to the rise in the value of assets. This is because there is a lot of demand for gold in both the US and other countries.

In the last year, gold prices in Nepal have hit all-time highs. Gold has been trading for more than Rs 258,000 a tola in the local bullion market. This means that more people are looking for safe and steady investments.

Why Nepal Gold Price Is Rising

The price of gold in Nepal has risen as a result of concerns over inflation, geopolitical issues, and the state of the global economy. In most cases, people invest in gold in this situation in anticipation that gold holds a safer place for their financial resources.

When people lose faith in stock markets or currencies, they also want more gold in Nepal. This trend has helped raise the price of gold, which is suitable for institutions like Nepal Rastra Bank that already have a lot of gold on hand.

Central Bank’s Gold Investment Approach

Nepal Rastra Bank handles its gold exposure by using a mix of real gold bars, silver, and paper gold tools, including gold certificates.

The bank can take advantage of rising prices with these certificates without needing more room to store things.

Officials have said that plans may focus more on financial products tied to gold instead of adding to physical reserves. This makes it easier to manage assets while also making them more diverse.

Impact on Imports and Domestic Market

The price of gold in Nepal has gone up, which has also affected gold imports. Recent trade data show that Nepal has brought in a lot more gold this fiscal year than it did the previous year. The central bank boosted the daily limit on gold imports to maintain the supply steady and meet rising demand.

This step is aimed to help legal commerce, ease the pressure on supply, and maintain the domestic market stable.

Global Trend Supports Gold Demand

What is happening in Nepal is no different from what is happening in other parts of the world. Central banks around the world have been buying more gold as a strategy to shield themselves from financial risk.

Gold is still an essential part of building up national reserves and keeping the economy stable over the long term.

What does this mean for Investors?

The fact that the Nepal gold price keeps going up may mean that investors are becoming concerned about the market. Gold usually does well when stocks, bonds, and other types of assets don’t do well.

Investors can learn more about the economy and make better decisions by keeping an eye on both gold prices and the stock market at the same time.
