Gold climbed for the third straight day by gaining Rs 55 to Rs 28,630 per 10 grams, reflecting a firm overseas trend amid buying by local jewellers.
However, silver came down by Rs 100 to Rs 38,500 per kg due to lower offtake.
According to bullion traders, sustained buying by local jewellers at the domestic spot market mainly kept gold prices elevated.
Globally, gold rose 0.32 per cent to $1,231.60 an ounce in Singapore.
In the national capital, gold of 99.9 per cent and 99.5 per cent purity edged up further by Rs 55 each to Rs 28,630 and Rs 28,480 per 10 grams, respectively. The precious metal had gone up Rs 175 over the previous two days.
