I'm not a huge fan of buying gold or silver as an inflation hedge just because I think you'll get the same/better results holding productive assets like businesses (essentially businesses will increase prices to keep up with inflation and share price will in turn rise as well) I think I would only buy gold if I was a billionaire and decided to buy some for my personal home safe and I'd be buying it as a just incase the world and society collapses type of deal. To hedge against inflation I think borrowing money at low rates and then buying productive assets like stocks is the best way to go. You benefit from inflation when you're a debt holder and you benefit from inflation when you're an asset holder so you benefit on both sides.
What other ways will work for India..? Real estate interest are very high here and stocks are extremely over valued as of now... And saving account and certificate of deposit are pretty low interests 😂
Index funds might be a good choice if you're not a stock picker. Even when a market is overvalued it's still the best place to be simply because there is no better alternative.
