Gold prices rose on Monday, as dollar fell after political risk receded in Italy. However, the prospect of US interest rate later this month is likely to cap gains going ahead.
In base metals, copper rallied to highest level in six weeks on softer dollar. In energy segment, oil prices fell as US production hit a record high and as Opec members considered boosting supply.
