Though gold has recovered lost ground, nonetheless risk appetite remained strong on China's prompt efforts in tackling the lethal coronavirus.

International spot gold prices surged 0.2% to $1555.41 per ounce. In the previous session, gold fell by 1.5%.

In India, gold imports in January were dragged to a 4-month low as record high prices dented demand for physical gold. Gold futures scaled to a record high of Rs. 41,293 per 10 gm and its price includes 12.5% import duty and 3% GST.

Analysts are of the view that lower demand of gold from India can weigh on the global gold prices.
