Elsewhere, nickel, zinc, brass and copper prices gained further on good demand from industrial users.
The industrial metals held in a tight range at LME, on concerns about a US economic recovery after recent softer data, although brighter signs in top metals consumer China underpinned prices.
Tin shot-up by Rs 10 per kg to Rs 1,510 from Monday's closing level of Rs 1,500 and nickel climbed by Rs 5 per kg to Rs 1,040.
Copper cable scrap, copper scrap heavy, copper wire bar, brass utensil scrap and zinc moved up Rs 2 per kg each to Rs 525, Rs 517, Rs 553, Rs 344 and Rs 168 from Rs 523, Rs 515, Rs 551, Rs 342 and Rs 166, respectively.
