Gold recovers on modest demand, silver trades flat

Gold prices recovered modestly at the bullion market here today on moderate demand at lower levels by retail consumers amid marriage-season offtake.

While, silver traded sluggish and ended almost flat owing to mute industrial demand.

Prices of standard gold (99.5 purity) gained by Rs 40 to close at Rs 26,620 per 10 grams from Tuesday’s closing level of Rs 26,580.
