New Delhi: Reversing yesterday's slide, gold
prices ticked higher by Rs 50 to Rs 31,350 per 10 grams at the bullion market today on mild buying by local jewellers.
Silver followed suit and edged up by Rs 50 to Rs 39,200 per kg due to increased offtake by industrial units and coin makers.
Traders attributed the recovery in gold prices to some buying by local jewellers and retailers at the domestic spot market.
