At 10:13 am, August gold futures on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) were trading at Rs 96,788 per 10 grams, up Rs 713 from the previous close. Meanwhile, August silver futures rose by Rs 459 or 0.43% to Rs 1,06,696 per kg.

Trump expressed frustration with U.S.-Japan trade negotiations on Monday as U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned that countries could be notified of sharply higher tariffs, as a July 9 deadline approaches despite good-faith negotiations.
Meanwhile, Trump continued to press the Federal Reserve on Monday to ease monetary policy, sending Fed Chair Jerome Powell a list of global central bank interest rates, annotated with handwritten comments saying U.S. rates should be between Japan's 0.5% and Denmark's 1.75%.
"Gold rebounded from five-week lows due to short covering and bargain hunting, while a weaker dollar—hitting a 43-month low—which favoured bullish sentiment in gold. The dollar index declined following weak U.S. GDP data and a stronger Euro, as concerns over U.S. tariffs and inflation continue to weigh," said Rahul Kalantri, VP Commodities, Mehta Equities.
