New Delhi - Gold recovered by Rs. 165 to Rs 29,770 per 10 grams in the bullion market here on Tuesday after three days of losses on good demand amid firm global cues.
Silver also moved up by Rs. 100 to Rs. 52,500 per kg on increased offtake by industrial units and coin makers.
Fresh buying by stockists and jewellers for the coming wedding season supported the uptrend in both gold and silver prices, traders said.
