India's gold and silver imports nearly doubled in September 2025 due to festival demand, stockpiling, and economic uncertainty.
India's gold and silver imports nearly doubled in September 2025, driven by strong festival demand ahead of Diwali, strategic stockpiling by jewelers and banks, and safe-haven buying amid economic uncertainty.
Despite record prices—gold hit ₹117,788 per 10 grams and silver ₹144,330 per kg—imports surged, with August's gold and silver imports at $5.4 billion and $451.6 million, respectively.
A last-minute rush before potential import duty hikes and strong domestic demand, especially for silver in solar and EV sectors, fueled the increase.
The surge may widen India’s trade deficit and pressure the rupee, while supporting global precious metal prices.
Trade data for September will be released in mid-October.
