Besides, profit-booking kept pressure on metal prices.
At the Multi Commodity Exchange, copper for delivery in August fell by Rs 1.45, or 0.35 per cent, to Rs 410.80 per kg, in a business turnover of 777 lots.
Likewise, the metal for delivery in far-month November traded lower by Rs 1.35, or 0.32 per cent, to Rs 417.10 per kg in eight lots.
Analysts attributed the fall in copper prices at futures trade to a weak demand at the domestic spot markets amid profit-booking at higher levels, led to the decline in copper prices in futures trade.
