Gold jumps Rs 800 to Rs 98,820/10 g; silver rallies Rs 2,000

Agency: New Delhi, Aug 5 (PTI) Gold prices jumped by Rs 800 to Rs 98,820 per 10 grams in the national capital on Tuesday due to heavy buying by stockists, according to the All India Sarafa Association. The yellow metal of 99.9 per cent purity had settled at Rs 98,020 per 10 grams in the previous market close. Gold of 99.5 per cent purity in the national capital appreciated by Rs 700 to Rs 98,500 per 10 grams (inclusive of all taxes) on Tuesday. The precious metal had closed at Rs 97,800 per 10 grams on Monday. 'Gold prices rose on Tuesday, supported by demand for safe haven and an increasing consensus that the US Federal Reserve will restart its interest rate-cutting cycle in the upcoming meeting next month. 'Dovish remarks from Federal Reserve officials, along with last week's disappointing job market report, led traders to become more optimistic about potential rate cuts at the Fed's upcoming meeting in September, boosting gold traders sentiment," Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst, Commodities at HDFC Securities, said. As per the Sarafa Association, silver prices rallied Rs 2,000 to Rs 1,12,000 per kilogram (inclusive of all taxes) on Tuesday. The white metal had finished at Rs 1,10,000 per kg in the previous market session. 'Spot gold extended its rally to close nearly 0.30 per cent higher on Monday at USD 3,375 per ounce as US factory orders fell in June. 'The US President Donald Trump threatening India with significantly steep tariffs over Russian oil purchases also boosted the metal as the Indian rupee fell to Rs 88/dollar in the NDF market," Praveen Singh, Associate Vice-President, Fundamental currencies and commodities at Mirae Asset Share Khan, said. Meanwhile, spot gold fell by USD 20.95 or 0.62 per cent to USD 3,352.61 per ounce in New York. 'Gold is holding steady near USD 3,430 per ounce as markets await the release of the ISM Services PMI and the latest US trade balance data," Kaynat Chainwala, AVP Commodity Research at Kotak Securities, said. On the international front, spot silver was trading flat at USD 37.39 per ounce. Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst – Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities said, 'The primary focus remains on trade tariff developments, with the US looking to recalibrate tariffs in its favour." Despite the short-term dip, gold continues to price in the broader impact of trade tariff uncertainty and dollar weakness, keeping the overall trend supported," he added.

India-UK trade deal: India eyes three-fold surge in seafood exports

Ahmedabad, Aug 5 (PTI) Seafood exports from India to the United Kingdom would witness a three-fold jump in the coming years after the removal of duty on fisheries products under the India-UK free trade agreement, according to industry leaders. Since Gujarat, having a coastline of nearly 2,300 kilometers, is one of the key states contributing to India's seafood exports, industry leaders believe that the increase in India's exports will also help Gujarat-based fishermen, exports and the entire ecosystem attached with this industry. Gujarat-based exporter Jagdish Fofandi said the relief in export duty would take India's seafood export to the UK from current levels of Rs 1,000 crore to nearly Rs 3,000 crore in three years. At present, the UK levies 8.9 per cent export duty on Indian seafood products such as fish and shrimp, said Fofandi, former national president of Seafood Exporters Association of India (SEAI). 'Now, after the signing of the trade agreement, there will be zero duty on such products exported to the UK from India. The UK imports seafood worth USD 5.4 billion from across the world every year. 'However, India's share in this basket is just 2.2 per cent, which comes to Rs 1,000 crore at present," said Fofandi. With the reduction in the duty, Indian seafood items will be cheaper by nearly 8 to 9 per cent for the buyers in the UK, making Indian products more competitive in comparison to other countries, said Fofandi, former vice president of Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA). 'We are assuming that in the next three years, there is a potential growth of 300 per cent. Thus, I am seeing that our export will go up from the current level of Rs 1,000 crore to Rs 3,000 crore. Since Gujarat is a major contributing state, this new market will certainly benefit our fishermen, exporters and everyone associated with this business," said Fofandi. Shrimp constitutes 70 per cent of the total export basket of Indian seafood. However, it is facing stress from US and other markets at present, said Fofandi. 'Opening up of the UK market due to this trade deal, it will absorb some of the shock which other markets are creating to Indian exporters. This will particularly help the shrimp farming industry of south Gujarat," said Fofandi. While south Gujarat is more into shrimp farming, the coastline of Saurashtra region contributes in exporting fish caught from the sea, said Fofandi, adding that some varieties of fish exported from that region have become popular among Indians and Chinese settled in the UK. According to Ketan Suyani, Gujarat-based regional president of SEAI, this trade agreement will eventually help fishermen in getting better prices for the catch. At present, Gujarat's fisheries export is roughly around Rs 5,000 crore. Of these, entire Europe accounts for nearly 40 per cent while the remaining 60 per cent goes to the Gulf, China and other Far-east countries, said Suyani. 'This trade agreement will eventually benefit Gujarat fishermen because the demand for Indian seafood products will increase after the duty reduction. Fishermen will get better prices with the increase in export quantity," he said. In July, India and the United Kingdom signed the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), a bilateral free trade agreement. CETA provides an unprecedented duty-free access to 99 per cent of India's exports to the UK, covering nearly 100 per cent of the trade value. This includes labour-intensive sectors such as textiles, leather, marine products, gems and jewellery, and toys as well as high-growth sectors like engineering goods, chemicals, and auto components.

Trump Targets India, Spares China Despite It Buying More Russian Oil: Report

New Delhi: US President Donald Trump has been unfairly targeting India over Russian oil imports, while choosing not to criticise China, according to a recent report by the Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI). The report suggested that this selective approach may be driven by geopolitical calculations. As per the data from the report, China is the largest buyer of Russian oil. In 2024, China imported USD 62.6 billion worth of Russian oil, compared to India's USD 52.7 billion. Despite this, Trump has focused his criticism on India, ignoring China's bigger role. GTRI stated, "Trump appears unwilling to criticise China, perhaps because of geopolitical calculations, and instead targets India unfairly". The report also rejects Trump's recent claim posted on Truth Social, where he alleged that India is "buying massive amounts of Russian oil and selling it on the open market for big profits." GTRI clarified that this statement is factually incorrect and misleading. India is not only buying massive amounts of Russian Oil, they are then, for much of the Oil purchased, selling it on the Open Market for big profits. They don't care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian War Machine. Because of this, I will be substantially… — Trump Truth Social Posts On X (@TrumpTruthOnX) August 4, 2025 The think tank explained that India does not export crude oil, Russian or otherwise. India is a net importer of crude oil, and its total crude oil exports stand at zero. What India does export are refined petroleum products, including diesel and jet fuel, some of which are processed from Russian crude. This is standard practice among energy-importing countries, the report said. GTRI further stated that India's oil refineries, both public and private, operate independently in deciding where to source crude oil from. These companies do not need government permission to buy oil from Russia or any other country. Their decisions are based on commercial considerations, including price, supply reliability, and rules in export destinations. The report noted that if Indian refiners find that importing Russian crude involves risks, such as secondary sanctions or restricted access to global markets, they may reduce or stop such imports voluntarily. For example, India exported diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF) to the European Union in FY2025, but these exports will now stop due to the EU's ban on products refined from Russian crude. In such cases, refiners will shift away from Russian oil without needing a government order. This trend is already visible. In May 2025, India's imports from Russia declined by 9.8 per cent, amounting to USD 9.2 billion, compared to imports in May 2024. The GTRI report concluded that India is being unfairly targeted, while China's larger role goes unquestioned, possibly due to broader geopolitical interests.
