The Indian Budget 2026 maintains customs duty rates for gold and silver imports unchanged. Importers pay 6% duty, including 5% BCD and 1% AIDC. Silver imports are taxed at 6% for eligible residents, 36% for others. A uniform 3% GST applies. This maintains the duty rates set in July 2024, when the duty on gold was reduced from 15% to 6%.
