Though it is being said that the vaccine would come by November, its announcement appears to have political motivations, he added. There is no doubt that gold price will only go up from here, Mehta further said. 

As for the Indian price, there is strength in INR against the US dollar. He expects the price to reach around Rs 54500 by Diwali.

Mehta said that the gold price still has the window for a Rs 1000 correction.
