The duty hike aims to curb gold imports and support the rupee, but may pressure domestic gold demand and jewelry margins. FII selling continues, indicating persistent foreign outflows. Oil prices remain elevated due to Middle East tensions, adding to India's import cost pressure. The commercial mechanism is primarily FX passthrough and regulatory impact on gold imports.
