New Delhi: Gold prices came down by Rs 100 to Rs 32,050 per 10 grams at the bullion market on Tuesday owing to slackened demand from local jewellers despite a firm trend in overseas markets.

Silver followed suit and cracked below the Rs 38,000-mark by plunging Rs 700 to Rs 37,450 per kg due to reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

Marketmen attributed the slide in gold prices to easing demand from local jewellers and retailers at existing levels in domestic spot market but added that a firm trend overseas capped the fall.

Globally, gold rose 0.22 per cent to USD 1,203.50 an ounce and silver by 0.68 per cent to USD 14.18 an ounce in Singapore.
