Domestic spot gold closed at Rs 47,976 per 10 grams on Wednesday, and silver at Rs 67,496 per kilogram – both rates excluding GST, according to Mumbai-based industry body India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA). 

“COMEX gold trades 0.5% higher near $1842/oz after a 1.6% decline yesterday. Supporting gold price is hopes of additional US stimulus, disappointing Chinese economic data and loose monetary policy stance of major central banks. However, weighing on price is recent gains in the US dollar and progress on the vaccine front. Gold may continue to witness mixed trade unless there is clarity on US dollar trend however we expect price to trade with a positive bias on US stimulus expectations and loose monetary policy stance of central banks,” said Ravindra Rao, VP- Head Commodity Research at Kotak Securities.

In the international market, gold was quoting lower at $ 1,835 per ounce and silver was flat at $ 26.78 per ounce. Gold prices are trading under pressure on stronger dollar and rally in equity indices, according to Tapan Patel, HDFC Securities, Senior Analyst (Commodities)
