Gold prices slipped on Friday, retreating from a near-four month high, after robust US jobs data fanned concerns that the Federal Reserve might stick with its aggressive monetary policy tightening.
Spot gold fell 0.4% to $1,794.96 per ounce by 2:21 p.m. ET (1921 GMT), after earlier hitting its highest since Aug. 10 at $1,804.46. U.S. gold futures settled down 0.3% at $1,809.6.
Data showed US employers hired more workers than expected in November and raised wages despite mounting worries of a recession.
The price of 1 kg of silver in Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata was Rs 64,300. In Chennai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad, the metal was trading at Rs 71,000 per kg.
