The government hiked the import duty on gold from 10.75 percent to 15% in order to rein in the country's widening current account imbalance despite surging gold imports. The new import duties will go into effect on June 30. Gold imports increased to 107 tonnes in May, while May imports were also considerable, according to a government announcement.

The basic customs charge on gold, which was previously 7.5 percent, will now be 12.5 percent. The effective gold customs duty will be 15% when the agriculture infrastructure development cess (AIDC) of 2.5 percent is included.

Gold and gasoline imports account for the majority of India's import bill, and any abrupt increase puts the country's economic condition under severe strain.
