New Delhi: Gold prices slipped by Rs 150 to Rs 31,900 per 10 gram at the local market here Wednesday due to weak global cues.
Besides, fall in demand from local jewellers too kept pressure on the precious metal. Silver ready held steady at Rs 37,450 per kg on scattered support, while weekly-based delivery dropped by Rs 443 to Rs 36,219 per kg on speculative selling. Traders said sentiment was downbeat as the precious metals weakened in global market. Also, fading demand from local jewellers as well as retailers at the domestic spot market weighed on the prices.
In the national capital, gold of 99.9 per cent and 99.5 per cent purity fell by Rs 150 to Rs 31,900 and Rs 31,750 per 10 gram, respectively. The precious metal had lost Rs 100 on Tuesday. (PTI)
