thebalanced.newsIndia Imposes 15% Gold Import Duty; Nomura Predicts Titan Stock Growth
The Indian government has imposed a 15% import duty on gold, raising concerns about its effects on demand, pricing, and profitability within the jewellery sector. Despite these concerns, Nomura forecasts a 21% increase in Titan Company's stock value. The duty may lead to inventory gains but is unlikely to directly boost profits for jewellery companies, with impacts varying across different market segments.
