India is one of the countries with the highest levels of global gold demand and is a significant importer of precious yellow metals. Gold, India’s second-largest imported product, has a high tax rate that significantly raises the country’s import prices. The value of the Indian rupee in relation to the US dollar for exchange is the most important factor affecting the price of gold and silver in India.
The level of worldwide demand for precious metals also affects how much they cost. In addition, factors including manufacturing expenses, labour costs, excise taxes, state-specific taxes, and an additional GST on completed jewellery affect how much gold jewellery prices vary from state to state.
