With the festival of Dussehra, gold takes centre stage in many households, symbolising prosperity and wealth. Traditionally, people flock to purchase physical gold during this time, but today, investors have to decide: Should they invest in Gold Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) or sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) or stick with the time-honoured choice of physical gold?
