The prices of the 24-carat gold had settled lower at Rs 93,390, according to the India Bullion Association, as of 6:20 p.m. The price of the 99.5% purity gold rose by Rs 50 to reclaim its all-time high level of Rs 96,000 per 10 grams. The previous close of the yellow metal was Rs 95,950 per 10 grams.

Silver prices climbed by Rs 2,500 to Rs 97,500 per kg on the back of fresh industrial demand. The white metal had declined by Rs 500 to close at Rs 95,000 per kg on Monday. Meanwhile, the spot silver rates in the Asian market hours fell marginally to $32.32 per ounce.

Globally, spot gold appreciated by $13.67 or 0.43% to $3,224.60 per ounce. The Comex gold futures for June delivery went up 0.47% to $3,241.50 per ounce.

"Gold prices remain steady near all-time highs, buoyed by a weakening dollar and persistent uncertainty surrounding US trade policy," Chintan Mehta, Chief Executive Officer at Abans Financial Services, said.

The US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's upcoming press conference on Wednesday will be in focus, with investors seeking signals on how the central bank may respond if trade tensions intensify or economic conditions weaken, Mehta added.

According to HDFC Securities' Senior Analyst of Commodities Saumil Gandhi, traders are now looking towards US macro data, including the NY Empire State Manufacturing Index to be released later on Tuesday.

Further, market participants will also be awaiting speeches from the Federal Open Market Committee member Thomas Barkin and European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde for more insights. However, the major focus remains on tariff-related headlines which could affect bullion prices, Gandhi said.
