Gold prices ended flat at R31,200 per 10 gm in Delhi today on lack of buying support at prevailing higher levels. However, silver fell further by R700 to R59,300 per kg on reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

Reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers kept pressure on silver prices, they said.

Mustard output may rise 10% this rabi
Production of mustard , a key oilseed grown during the rabi (winter sowing) season, is expected to grow by 10% to 6.5 million tonne in this season on account of good rains and cool temperature in Rajasthan and North India, an industry body said today. In the 2011-12 rabi season, India had produced 5.9 million tonne of rapeseed-mustard, edible oil, industry body Solvent Extractors Association of India (SEA) said.
