₹50 L in 2020: Gold, Silver, or Algorithm? One Mumbai Investor Found Out the Hard Way

Gold vs Silver vs Firefly returns comparison (2020–2025) Mumbai story.

💥 The Mumbai Investment Bet

When the world went quiet during the 2020 market crash, three Mumbai friends made three very different bets.

Rohit, a jeweller’s son from Zaveri Bazaar, invested ₹50 L in 22 K Gold at ₹3,870 per gram.
Amit, a commodities enthusiast, went all-in on Silver, confident that industrial demand would skyrocket.
Priya, a software engineer fresh out of Powai Tech Park, started small — saving hard, building capital, and learning.

By 2023, Priya had saved her ₹50 L and started with Firefly by Fintrens, a SEBI-aware algo-trading platform that automates wealth creation through verified strategies.

Five years later, their results sparked a heated debate over coffee at Marine Drive.
