New Delhi, Sep 27 (PTI) Gold and silver prices tumbled in the national capital today on sluggish demand and a weak global trend.
While gold prices declined by Rs 340 to Rs 30,200 per ten gram, silver dropped by Rs 540 to Rs 48,455 per kg on reduced offtake by jewellers and coin makers.
Traders said sluggish demand due to ongoing "sharads" an inauspicious fortnight in Hindu mythology for making new purchases mainly kept pressure on gold and silver prices.
