On Friday, gold price jumped Rs 350 to Rs 60,600 per 10 gram in the national capital amid a rally in precious metals prices overseas, according to HDFC Securities. The yellow metal had closed at Rs 60,250 per 10 gram in the previous trade. Silver also zoomed Rs 650 to Rs 73,550 per kg.

Imports of the yellow metal stood at USD 46.2 billion in 2021-22.
Silver imports, however, rose 6.12 per cent to USD 5.29 billion during the last fiscal.
The significant fall in gold imports though has not helped in narrowing the country’s trade deficit — the difference between imports and exports. The merchandise trade deficit in 2022-23 was estimated at USD 267 billion against USD 191 billion in the year-ago period.
