Why has SGBs as a share of gold imports elevated a lot?
Really this isn’t entity correct. Each SGB tranches at the moment are closed however FY 24-25 continues to be has 6 months away so clearly the gold imports will improve particularly with the festive season coming. Not precisely positive how a lot shall be imported however we will go along with atleast 50000 Crs extra ig.
Although this 12 months the funding into SGB is greater than final 12 months (however when it comes to worth and when in comparison with gold imports of that 12 months).
To reply your query I’d say as a result of folks know are understanding the benefit of SGB as funding lately. I’ve to credit score finfluncers right here as a result of they’ve made loads of content material about SGB and it’s benefits.

Somebody who understands mechanics can clarify why SGD retains cash inside India? Does this imply no gold is definitely purchased for each SGB bought?
