Gold rose for the third straight session on Wednesday, gaining ₹110 to ₹32,800 per 10 grams on increased buying by jewellers to meet marriage season demand.
Silver prices also spurted by ₹300 to ₹40,100 per kg on fresh buying by industrial units and coin makers.
Marketmen said, sentiment was upbeat largely supported by continued buying by local jewellers to meet wedding season demand.
However, global cues were negative that limited the rise in the precious metal prices, they said.
Globally, gold traded lower at USD 1,283.20 an ounce and silver fell 0.26% at $15.67 an ounce in New York on Wednesday.
In the national capital, gold of 99.9% and 99.5% purities rose ₹110 each to ₹32,800 and ₹32,650 per 10 grams, respectively.
The yellow metal had risen ₹190 in the previous two days.
Sovereign gold, however, continued to be traded at previous level of ₹25,200 per piece of eight grams.
Following the rise in gold, silver-ready spurted ₹300 to ₹40,100 per kg and weekly-based delivery rose ₹277 to ₹39,333 per kg.
Silver coins, too, were in good demand and traded notably higher at ₹77,000 for buying and ₹78,000 for selling of 100 pieces, as against previous level of ₹76,000 and ₹77,000, respectively.
