Gold prices on Monday fell by ₹ 100 to ₹ 33,620 per 10 gram in the national capital due to subdued demand from local jewellers and a weak trend overseas, according to the All India Sarafa Association. Silver prices also dropped by ₹ 10 to ₹ 38,090 per kg owing to reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.
