NEW DELHI, July 13: Silver prices were trading up by Rs 41 to Rs 37,009 per kg in futures trade today after participants raised bets amid firming global trends.

At the Multi Commodity Exchange, silver for delivery in September was trading up by Rs 41, or 0.11 per cent, to Rs 37,009 per kg in a business turnover of 472 lots.

Similarly, the white metal for delivery in December traded higher by Rs 38, or 0.10 per cent, to Rs 37,659 per kg in a business volume of one lot.
