Mumbai: Notwithstanding extreme global volatility, gold witnessed a meaningful rebound after a four-day slump on the domestic bullion market today on the back of fresh wave of buying by stockists and jewellers.
The white metal also recouped modestly owing to renewed speculative demand coupled with industrial buying.
