The price of gold in the Sultanate is on the rise ahead of Diwali after having dipped for some time.
The yellow metal is the costliest it has been in two-and-a-half months.
The price of 22 karat gold was OMR15.150 as of Tuesday and that of 24 karat gold was OMR15.750.
This development comes in the backdrop of thousands of Indian customers looking to buy gold ahead of Diwali.
