Govt working on integrated gold policy to promote yellow metal

28 Dec 2018 Evaluate

With an aim to promote growth of the yellow metal industry and exports of jewellery, Commerce and Industry Minister Suresh Prabhu has said that the government is working on an integrated gold policy and it is expected to be released soon. Besides, the domestic industry has demanded a cut in import duty on gold to 4% from the current 10%.

The minister said that at present, there is no such policy despite the fact that India is the largest consumer and importer of gold. He added that India has the potential to become a ‘good exporter of value-added gold’. Moreover, the policy is likely to focus on promoting the domestic gold industry and exports of gems and jewellery, which contribute about 15% to the total merchandise outbound shipments.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, in February, had announced formulation of a comprehensive gold policy to develop gold as an asset class. Government think-tank Niti Aayog in August suggested the government to bring down import duty on gold from the existing 10% and also asked to slash the GST rate on the precious metal from the current 3%.
