After the strictness on Digital Gold by SEBI, there has been a huge decline in the purchase of digital gold in October 2025. According to the report, purchases of digital gold declined by 61% in October, which is the lowest level this year. If we talk about the amount of investment, the value of digital gold purchased in October was only Rs 550 crore, whereas in September it was Rs 1,410 crore. The average investment this year is around Rs 951 crore. The special thing is that despite the Diwali and wedding season in the month of October, there was a decline in the purchase of gold, mainly due to the rising prices of Digital Gold and the new rules of SEBI. Most purchases of digital gold are made through UPI Apps. The number of transactions also declined from 10 crore in August-September to only 2.1 crore in October, showing a decline of almost 80%. SEBI regulations do not govern the purchase of physical gold against digital gold, but some risks remain for investors. In this video we will explain in detail why Digital Gold has declined at this time and what precautions investors should take.
