In international markets, gold prices ticked higher today as a tepid dollar made bullion less expensive for overseas buyers, although the prospects of further interest rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve next year kept gains in check. Spot gold was up 0.1 per cent at $1,794.60 per ounce, as of 0226 GMT. US gold futures rose 0.2 per cent at $1,804.00.
Gold is considered a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties, but rising interest rates tend to dent bullion's appeal as the metal pays no interest.
In Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata, one kg of silver is currently trading at Rs 69,300, whereas, 1 kg of silver is selling at Rs 73,000 in Chennai.
Spot silver gained 0.3 per cent to $23.29.
