Gold futures fell Rs 47 to Rs 30,033 per 10 grams today as participants trimmed positions after a decline in global prices of the precious metal.
The August contract of gold fell by Rs 47, or 0.16 per cent lower, at Rs 30,033 per 10 grams in a business turnover of 123 lots at the Multi Commodity Exchange.
