Can anyone explain mismatch in price of gold futures and sgb

Hi Everyone,

As in the below screenshot I notice that the MCX gold futures have risen around 10% more than SGB, If my understanding is correct sgb track the gold price! but why is there a difference in returns of gold futures vs sgb ? is it something to do with interest rates?

PS: I have considered comparison date after indian government reduced the tax on gold imports (Though it shouldn’t matter as gold futures is also from india!!).
