India, gold demand returns as prices ease
Gold traders in India, the world's biggest consumer, drifted back to the market on Friday as prices eased from their highest level in more than two months, dealers said.
Gold traders in India, the world's biggest consumer, drifted back to the market on Friday as prices eased from their highest level in more than two months, dealers said.
* The most-traded gold for April delivery on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) was trading 0.37% lower at Rs 28,252 per 10 grams, falling from the previous day's two-month high of Rs 28,511.
* "Demand is better than last two days as prices have cooled off a bit," said a dealer with a private bullion importing bank in Mumbai.
* The dealer expects the momentum to continue in coming sessions, but added "a lot will depend on prices."
* A weaker rupee could limit the downside in prices. The rupee plays an important role in determining the landed cost of the dollar-quoted yellow metal.
