Marketmen said low demand from jewellers amid a weak global trend mainly kept pressure on gold prices.
Globally, gold traded lower by 0.24 per cent to USD 1,187.10 an ounce and silver by 0.39 per cent to USD 16.63 an ounce in London in early trade.
Besides, appreciating rupee against the dollar that made the precious metals imports cheaper influenced the sentiment to some extent.

In the national capital, gold of 99.9 and 99.5 per cent purity fell by Rs 105 each to Rs 27,225 and Rs 27,075 per ten grams respectively. Its lowest level since May 7.
