New Delhi: Gold prices fell for the second day on Tuesday, down Rs50 at Rs29,600 per 10 grams on the bullion market amid weak overseas trend and easing demand from local jewellers.

However, silver held steady at Rs41,600 per kg in limited deals from industrial units and coin makers.

Traders said that apart from a weak trend overseas, where gold fell to almost two-week low, fading demand from local jewellers at domestic spot market kept pressure on prices.

Globally, gold prices fell 0.44% to $1,270.40 an ounce in Singapore.
