Silver also edged up by Rs 100 to Rs 76,400 per kilogram.
In the global markets, both gold and silver were trading higher at USD 1,992 per ounce and USD 23.66 per ounce, respectively.
Gold prices surged to a fresh swing high as the dollar and Treasury yields fell in the wake of expectations that Federal Reserve was done with raising interest rates, Saumil Gandhi, senior analyst of commodities at HDFC Securities, said.
