Silver also dropped by Rs 200 to Rs 40,300 per kg due to reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.
Traders said besides weak trend overseas, fading demand from local jewellers and retailers at prevailing levels at the domestic spot markets mainly kept pressure on gold prices.
Globally, gold fell 0.21 per cent to USD 1,287.90 an ounce and silver by 0.35 per cent to USD 17.01 an ounce in New York in yesterday's trade.
In the national capital, gold of 99.9 and 99.5 per cent purity declined by Rs 75 each to Rs 30,450 and Rs 30,300 per 10 grams, respectively. It had shed Rs 25 yesterday.
