At the Multi Commodity Exchange, the June contract rose by Rs 102, or 0.38%, to Rs 27,016 per 10 grams, with a business turnover of 1,757 lots.
The August contract moved up by Rs 94, or 0.34%, to Rs 27,350 per 10 grams, with a trade volume of 116 lots.

Meanwhile, gold rose by 0.70 to $1,477.25 an ounce in Singapore in early trade today.
