New Delhi: Gold prices recovered by Rs 20 to Rs 30,850 per 10 grams today, tracking a better trend overseas amid fresh buying by jewellers.  

The rise followed two sessions of back-to-back losses. Silver also rose by Rs 50 to Rs 39,900 per kg on increased offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

Traders said besides a firm trend overseas, pick-up in buying by local jewellers to meet wedding season demand at the domestic spot market, mainly led to the rise in gold prices.  

Globally, gold rose 0.32 per cent to USD 1,330.60 an ounce and silver by 0.38 per cent to USD 17.00 an ounce in New York in yesterday's trade supported by a weaker dollar.
