Silver Price Today in India (3rd Feb 2026) Live Updates: Silver rates continue to be in focus today (February 3) after the metal continued to extend losses following its steep fall. The white metal has been on a roller-coaster ride in recent weeks. This has kept the traders and investors on the edge. Looking at its level, the precious and industrial metal has plunged sharply from a peak of Rs 4,20,000 per kilogram to around Rs 2,65,000. This marks a decline of more than 35%. In early deals today, Silver prices are showing signs of a rebound. Spot silver has risen nearly 8% to $82.74, partially recovering from its recent steep fall. One of the key reasons for the recent turbulence in silver was partly driven by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, or CME. The exchange increased the initial margins on COMEX silver futures by more than 15% in late January 2026. This raised the cost of holding leveraged positions, prompting traders to reduce exposure quickly. Silver is not only a precious metal but also a working metal, with 50–55% of global demand coming from sectors like solar energy, electronics , automobiles , and electrical equipment. Expectations of tighter monetary policy by the United States Federal Reserve and risk aversion in commodity markets have further influenced trading. With both industrial and investment demand affecting prices, investors will be closely monitoring the silver price.

Despite, the nomination of Kevin Warsh for the next chair of US Federal Reserve, markets are eyeing in two rate cuts by the Fed. Kevin Warsh, former federal governor is known for his hawkish stance, yet the bets of rate cuts are on charts. With the rate cut in sight, it is likely that prices of precious metals are likely to remain elevated over the longer run as lower interest rate increase the appeal of non-interest yielding assets like gold and silver. "COMEX Silver is consolidating in the $75–$85 range after testing record highs above $121.6. The broader bullish structure remains intact, though the sharp rally led to overbought conditions and aggressive profit booking," Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money said. He added that rise in prices suggests healthy consolidation rather than trend exhaustion. "Support lies at $71–$75, while a sustained breakout above $88–$90 could trigger the next impulsive move toward $100–$105. Structural supply deficits and steady industrial demand continue to support the bullish bias." the analyst said.

On January 30, spot silver marked one of its steepest declines since 1983, as the white metal plunged by 27%. The crash came in largely due to the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next chair of Fed, known viewed for his hawkish stance. Analyst have said his nomination drove Chinese speculators from the markets. Adding the this was the margin hike by the CME group on future contracts of precious metals. Speaking on the dramatic unwinding in gold and silver markets, Hareesh V, Head of Commodity Research, Geojit Investments said, "A dramatic unwind hit gold and silver markets over the past two days, erasing a chunk of their record‑breaking January gains. The plunge began after CME Group hiked margin requirements on both metals forcing leveraged traders to liquidate positions and accelerating a wave of selling." He added that, "in addition, the selloff intensified as markets digested reports that US President Donald Trump is set to nominate Kevin Warsh—viewed as a hawkish, dollar‑supportive choice—as the next Federal Reserve Chair. The shift revived expectations of tighter policy and triggered a sharp rebound in the U.S. dollar, which is negative for precious metals." According to Geojit's Hareesh V, "the correction was amplified by extreme overbought conditions after gold and silver touched unprecedented highs just days earlier, with silver having surged more than 60% in a month and gold over 20%. Profit‑taking cascaded into panic selling as liquidity thinned and volatility spiked." Experts believe that the violent drop more like a technical correction than a deterioration in core fundamentals, noting that longer‑term drivers—geopolitical tensions, central‑bank buying and macro uncertainty—remain intact.
