Decline in futures trading
Gold and silver futures prices also fell on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX):

Silver March delivery: ₹1,29,160 per kg (a drop of ₹1,169)
What is the reason for the decline?
Investors have exercised caution ahead of the Federal Reserve's upcoming monetary policy meeting. Profit-booking at higher levels has put pressure on both metals. Experts believe that if the Fed adopts a dovish stance on interest rates, gold and silver could see a rebound. According to Jatin Trivedi, Vice President (Commodity and Currency Research) at LKP Securities, a market decline of 1-2% is possible even if clear guidance is not issued.
