Gold prices drifted to hit its lowest levels in 1-1/2 month at the domestic bullion market here due to sluggish demand from jewellery stockists as well as poor local buying sentiment.
On the other hand, silver moved up marginally on the back of stray industrial demand.
Standard gold (99.5 purity) declined by Rs 95 to end at Rs 26,625 per 10 grams from Wednesday’s closing level of Rs 26,720.
Pure gold (99.9 purity) also fell by a similar margin to finish at Rs 26,775 per 10 grams compared to Rs 26,870.
However, price of silver (.999 fineness) edged up by Rs 25 to settle at Rs 37,685 per kg as against Rs 37,660 previously.
On the global front, the shiny—metal regained some lost ground on safe—haven demand amid continued uncertainty over Greece.
Spot gold was bid higher at $1,211.45 an ounce in early European trade, while silver inched up to $16.42 an ounce.
