NEW DELHI, Mar 11: Silver prices fell by 0.30 per cent to Rs 46,762 per kg in futures trade today as speculators trimmed their positions despite a firming trend in the overseas markets.

Similarly, the white metal for delivery in May declined by Rs 134, or 0.29 per cent, to Rs 45,839 per kg in a business volume of 1,704 lots.
