According to local marketmen, the yellow metal of 99.9 per cent purity climbed Rs 1,500 to Rs 1,60,300 per 10 grams (inclusive of all taxes) from Monday's closing level of Rs 1,58,800 per 10 grams.
The recovery came even as global gold prices traded lower, with analysts attributing the rise in domestic prices to a weak US dollar and renewed investor interest.
"Gold prices rebounded on Tuesday, supported by a decline in crude oil prices and a pullback in the US dollar and Treasury bond yields," Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst, Commodities, HDFC Securities, said.
Silver prices, however, remained flat at Rs 2,55,700 per kilogram.
Improved market sentiment
Market sentiment improved after Iran and Israel agreed to halt attacks against each other, while comments from US President Donald Trump indicating progress toward a formal ceasefire boosted hopes for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, he added.
"The easing of geopolitical tensions helped alleviate concerns over energy-driven inflation, providing support to precious metals after recent weakness. However, the recovery remained limited as investors continued to weigh the outlook for US monetary policy," Gandhi said.
Global market trends
In the international markets, spot gold slipped marginally to USD 4,326.78 per ounce, while silver edged up to USD 68.28 per ounce.
Spot gold is trading lower around the USD 4,330 per ounce level as traders look for more clues to the situation in the Middle East, Praveen Singh, Head of Commodities at Mirae Asset Sharekhan, said.
Meanwhile, crude oil prices traded lower as US President Donald Trump claimed that a good deal involving Washington and Tehran is imminent.
