Gold prices fell by Rs 47 to Rs 26,582 per ten grams today in futures trade amid weak global trends.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, the October contract of gold fell by Rs 47, or 0.18 per cent, to Rs 26,582 per ten grams in business turnover of 298 lots.
The far-month December contract shed Rs 15, or 0.06 per cent, to Rs 26,796 per ten grams with a volume of one lot.
Analysts attributed the fall in gold futures to weak global trends before a US government payrolls report on Friday which may offer clues on whether the economy is strong enough for an interest rate rise after private jobs data showed an increase in hiring.
Gold fell 0.1 per cent to USD 1,133.23 an ounce in Singapore.
