The document discusses the impact of gold on the Indian economy. It provides background on gold, including its properties and top gold consuming and producing countries. India is the largest consumer of gold globally. The document then examines how gold impacts key economic indicators in India like the Sensex stock market index, interest rates, exchange rates, and inflation. When economic conditions are unstable, investors tend to switch to gold as an alternative investment. Rising gold prices are often associated with falling interest rates and a depreciating rupee. Gold also serves as a hedge against inflation in India as millions regard it as a form of money.
This document discusses the uses of gold, reasons why Indians buy jewelry, India's role as a large gold consumer, reasons for gold price fluctuations, and the impact of gold price fluctuations on the Indian economy. It notes that India imports 800-1000 tonnes of gold annually but imports declined from 142 tonnes in April 2014 to 38 tonnes in January due to reduced gold imports. Fluctuations in gold prices are caused by central bank buying, foreign exchange rates, supply and demand factors, instability, and inflation, which can impact India's current account deficit, exchange rate, inflation, and value of the rupee.
Gold prices have historically fluctuated greatly. In India, gold is primarily purchased for jewelry and as a store of wealth. The price of gold is affected by several factors including global economic conditions, the U.S. dollar value, gold supply and demand, and India's large population and cultural significance of gold. When gold prices rise or fall it has impacts throughout the Indian and global economy.
Global gold demand in the first quarter of 2011 increased 11% year-over-year to 981.3 tons due to turmoil in global markets and gold prices reaching all-time highs. India and China accounted for 41% of total demand. Meanwhile, gold supply declined 4% to 872.2 tons from the prior year due to a 6% drop in recycled gold. Factors driving increased gold demand and higher prices included a weakening US dollar, massive government deficits fueling inflation concerns, and rising investment demand for gold as a hedge.

Gold is used for jewelry, investments, and industry. Its price movements are influenced by US monetary policy, inflation, and stock market performance. When the US Federal Reserve engages in quantitative easing by printing more money, it can indirectly lower gold prices by boosting stocks, as investors turn to stocks for short-term gains instead of gold for long-term holding. Looking ahead, gold prices are expected to continue rising in 2013 due to expected inflation.

Hdfc sec - Gold ETF and Gold Funds - a review as on Jan 22, 2014Dhuraivel Gunasekaran
Gold prices have fallen significantly in recent years due to factors like tapering of US Fed bond purchases and strengthening dollar. Gold ETF assets under management in India declined 27% year-over-year. Going forward, gold prices may rise slightly due to seasonal demand increases in Asia. However, stronger global economies and rising US interest rates could negatively impact gold prices globally. Gold ETFs provide a way for Indian investors to gain exposure to gold in a convenient, liquid and cost-effective manner.
Gold has increased in value significantly over the past decade, rising from $1843.60 per ounce in 2011 to over $1900 per ounce currently. This increase has been driven by financial and political crises that increase uncertainty and decrease confidence in fiat currencies. When stock markets and other assets fall, gold often rises as investors view it as a stable store of value. Major crises like the 9/11 attacks, the 2008 recession, European debt problems, and US debt downgrades have all contributed to rising gold prices by weakening currencies and increasing demand for a stable alternative. Political unrest and high inflation also typically cause investors to seek refuge in gold.
The Case for Gold: Overview on Gold as an InvestmentAurAriA
Overview on how to view Gold as a tangible asset and investment. This presentation reviews the effective ROI on Gold versus other instruments in the last several years. Presentation delivered by CEO , Laurent Mathiot.
Gold can be invested in through various channels like bars, coins, accounts, exchange traded products, certificates, derivatives and mining companies. The price of gold is affected by factors like international prices, interest rates, dollar-rupee dynamics, central bank reserves and demand for the metal. Evaluating gold's performance over different time periods shows it has a low correlation with other commodities and assets like stocks, moving more independently based on its safe haven status.
Gold prices have risen significantly in recent years due to several factors. A weak US dollar, low interest rates, high inflation, economic crises and falling gold supply have increased demand for gold as a hedge. Additionally, festivals and traditions in India create seasonal demand spikes. Investors see gold as a stable, liquid, secure investment that is not subject to income tax.

In 2010, Russia’s central bank bought up an astounding 2/3 of the country’s entire national production.
India purchased closed to 750 tons, breaking the record of the previous year by almost 40%.
China – the biggest gold market of them all – has stated an intention to raise their national reserves by 849%, or 10,000 tons, worth half a trillion US$ by the end of the decade.
Currently the US occupies the No. 1 spot with 8,133 tons of gold.

Gold plays an important role in Indian culture and economy. About 35-50% of expenditures for Indian weddings go towards purchasing gold jewelry, which is gifted to brides and displays family status. Gold is seen as an investment that retains value, especially during financial crises. While other investment options exist, Indians still prefer gold due to cultural traditions and because a weaker rupee supports domestic gold prices. The price of gold is determined by supply and demand factors like consumer spending, investment demand, and inflation expectations. When prices rise, demand and supply both increase as gold is viewed as a luxury good and store of value.
Gold prices in India have risen due to several factors. Investors see gold as a reliable investment during economic uncertainty and inflation. Gold also serves cultural purposes in India as jewelry and an investment during special occasions and traditions. The price of gold has increased 22% in the past year in India and is expected to continue rising to Rs. 100,000 per 28 grams by next year and Rs. 250,000 per 28 grams in the following years, making it a good time to invest in gold.
Gold prices fell sharply in 2013, dropping $500/oz from late 2012 levels, driven by investors shifting out of gold as central banks signaled an end to quantitative easing programs. This large amount of gold hitting the market at one time was exacerbated by restrictions on gold imports in India. The sell-off has made many high-cost gold mines unprofitable. Global mine output is expected to fall around 15% over the medium term as mines close and new projects are delayed. The author expects gold to trade in a range of $1,000 to $1,750/oz for the rest of the decade as supply and demand factors act as stabilizers to the price slump.
The document summarizes the Global Gold Precious Metals Program, which offers a safe, convenient, and efficient way to buy, store, sell, and deliver allocated bullion in Switzerland. Key benefits include physical ownership of investment-grade metals, storage in high-security vaults, insurance and auditing. It cautions that unallocated programs, bank accounts, ETFs and certificates do not guarantee true ownership and may be subject to risks in a crisis. Global Gold offers 100% allocated physical metals without such risks.
This document compares the ARIMA and regression methods for forecasting gold prices.
Regression uses determinants like CPI, exchange rates, stock indexes and oil prices to predict long-term gold price trends but has more difficulty choosing indicators. ARIMA only uses past gold price data and is better for short-term forecasts within the next few periods but cannot account for irregular events.
Both methods have limitations. Regression cannot accurately predict short-term fluctuations while ARIMA does not consider other economic factors influencing long-term trends. The best approach may be combining both methods.
Crude oil, gold, and the US dollar are all interconnected assets whose prices impact one another. A falling US dollar typically causes gold and oil prices to rise for Americans as it takes more dollars to purchase the same amount. Gold and oil prices tend to move in the same direction since oil is needed for gold mining and refining. Over the long run, there is an inverse relationship between the dollar and gold as gold is considered a store of value when currencies lose purchasing power. Fluctuations in any of these commodities or the dollar have ripple effects throughout the global economy.
The document is a project report submitted by Dhawal Parihar to the University of Mumbai on the gold market of India. It discusses the historical, cultural, and economic significance of gold in Indian society. Gold is widely used in jewelry and is seen as a store of value. The report also examines gold's properties as a metal, its mythological origins in India, traditional uses, consumption trends, production, trading markets, and investment aspects. It provides an overview of the gold industry and gold's deep-rooted role in Indian culture.
“Indians have always been connoisseurs of precious stones and ornaments. Trade secrets of the jewellery business have been handed down over generations, ensuring continuity of traditional craft. Thus, India is today the world’s largest diamond cutting and polishing centre.India has been adding modern techniques to its traditional know how that are more in tune with global market trends. Several well-organised polishing units have been established to improve productivity and meet growing international demand. The presentation takes a journey into the sector keenly analyzing the sector while doing its SWOT analysis.
Abstract: The prime objective of the study is to shed light on various issues and scope of gems and jewellery export in India. Indian gems and jewellery industry has attained a remarkable position worldwide. Artifacts of India’s export of gem and jewellery are acknowledged all over the world for their exquisite craftsmanship. However in the present scenario industry is confronting various hindrances which obstruct the path to realize its true potential. It has become statutory to deal with the problems and constraints which are being faced taking in the account of the fact that during FY 2013-14 the sector has contributed $34746.90 million to Indian exchange earnings, which states the decline in export by 10.58 percent. Due to the dependence on imports, the complexities involved in obtaining import license by the government should be simplified and also the lengthy procedures and intricacy involved in trading need to be rationalized. In order to sustain its position in international market there is an immediate requirement to modernize the product designs and procedures involved. In addition to this the working condition of the workforce should refined to a great extent and their ill-wage structure must be revived. Some of the other major concerns being faced are lack of training facilities, existence of Casteism, lack of permanent work, financial issues, procedural hardship and financial issues. In the view of the declining growth rate the government has instigated various measures and also a significant amount of investment in gems and jewellery sector is accounted, as a result of which the gems and jewellery industry has recovered to a certain extent. There was an increment of 12.65% percent in export of cut and polished diamonds in FY 2014. As per an industry study the sector is anticipated to draw Rs 15,000 crore (US $ 2.42 billion) by the end of 2015 which would be a striking increase by December 2012 with Rs 8000 crore (US $ 1.29 billion).

Gold is a popular investment and store of value for Indians but it has negative economic impacts for India. It contributes significantly to India's large current account deficit due to high import volumes. The capital invested in gold does not contribute to India's productive capacity as it would if invested in financial assets or businesses. High domestic gold demand also ties the value of the rupee closely to international gold prices and interest rates, weakening the rupee. The government discourages gold purchases to help reduce the current account deficit and strengthen the economy.
