Gold prices rose further by Rs. 10 to Rs 27,460 per 10 grams in the national capital on Tuesday, on increased buying by jewellers and retailers for the upcoming festive season amid a firming global trend.

Silver followed suit and advanced by Rs. 100 to Rs 41,600 per kg on increased off-take by industrial units and coin makers.

Market men said apart from increased buying by jewellers and retailers to meet upcoming festive season demand, a firming global trend on speculation prices near an eight-month low will spur more buying as the U.S. Federal Reserve begins a two-day policy meeting, also boosted the sentiment.
