Gold Premium Expansion During Wedding Season Demand
Seasonal physical demand increases premiums, indirectly influencing digital pricing through supply chain adjustments.
Gold prices in Dubai often appear 7–10% cheaper than Indian rates because they exclude India’s 5% import duty and 3% GST. Indian digital gold is always priced at the fully landed cost, including taxes and currency conversion. Once duties and compliance costs are factored in, the apparent international arbitrage disappears. Direct headline comparisons without adjusting for tax structure can therefore be misleading.
