"A sudden spike is always a problem for gold demand, but the rupee is in a supporting mode," said a dealer with a private bank in Mumbai, which imported about 3-4 tonnes in January. International spot gold XAU= was trading $1,120.05/1,120.85 an ounce, rising from the intra-day low of $1,111.67 against the previous close of 1,113.95/1,114.75 an ounce. "I have sizeable orders below $1,100 levels," said another dealer with a state-run bank.
