Continuing its upward trend for the third straight day today, gold prices gained another Rs 50 to Rs 30,650 per 10 grams at the bullion market on the back of sustained buying by local jewellers amid firm global cues. However, silver eased by Rs 50 to Rs 38,100 per kg due to reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers. Bullion traders said persistent buying by local jewellers to meet the ongoing festive season demand at the domestic spot market and firm trend overseas kept gold higher.
