Gold Silver Rate Today: Gold and silver prices traded lower on Thursday as investors tracked safe-haven demand and ongoing geopolitical developments across global markets.

On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures for June 5 delivery slipped 0.42 per cent, or Rs 687, to touch an intraday low of Rs 1,59,319 around noon. The yellow metal later traded at Rs 1,59,400, down Rs 606 or 0.38 per cent. During the session, gold touched a high of Rs 1,59,992.

Silver prices also remained under pressure. MCX silver futures for July 3 delivery declined 1.4 per cent, or Rs 3,864, to hit an intraday low of Rs 2,70,401 per kg. The white metal was later trading at Rs 2,70,810, lower by Rs 3,455 or 1.26 per cent. Silver had earlier climbed to an intraday high of Rs 2,73,196.

At the opening bell, gold and silver had started the session at Rs 1,59,900 and Rs 2,72,275 respectively on the commodity exchange.

Weakness was also visible in overseas markets. COMEX gold fell 0.21 per cent to $4,525.80 per ounce, while COMEX silver declined 1.06 per cent to $75.37 per ounce.

Market analysts said MCX silver opened sharply lower and continued to trade cautiously above the Rs 2,72,000 mark. According to experts, the Rs 2,75,000–Rs 2,76,000 range remains a key resistance zone. A sustained move above these levels could push prices towards Rs 2,78,000–Rs 2,80,000.

On the downside, analysts warned that a break below Rs 2,71,000 may drag silver prices towards the Rs 2,68,000–Rs 2,67,000 range.

Experts added that near-term movement in silver prices will continue to depend largely on safe-haven demand and developments linked to geopolitical tensions worldwide.

For gold, analysts said MCX futures opened with a mild gap-down and continued to hold above the Rs 1,59,500 level during the session. They added that the short-term outlook for gold remains cautious, with sentiment likely to be driven by global risk appetite and geopolitical cues.

Meanwhile, crude oil prices moved higher in international trade. Brent crude rose 1.55 per cent to $106.65 per barrel, while US WTI crude gained nearly 2 per cent to trade at $100.11 per barrel.
