"Gold trading higher on Tuesday, with spot gold prices in the Delhi markets at ₹59,280/10 gram, up by ₹130 per 10 gram, taking cues from overseas markets," Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst - Commodities at HDFC Securities, said.
In international markets, both gold and silver were trading higher at USD 1,927 per ounce and USD 22.93 per ounce, respectively.
Following poorer than anticipated economic data on Monday, safe-haven purchase is still helping sustain gold prices, while investors await the outcome of FOMC June meeting minutes on Wednesday, which could provide further insights on the interest rate front, Gandhi said.
