New Delhi: Extending its gains for the third straight session, gold prices on Thursday surged by Rs 335 to Rs 32,835 per 10 gram at the bullion market in the national capital, amid weaker rupee against dollar, according to the All India Sarafa Association.
Silver, too, followed gold by gaining Rs 350 to Rs 39,700 per kg due to increased demand from industrial units and coin makers.
