Stocks of Gold retailers like – PC Jeweller, RBZ Jewellers, Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri (TBZ) and Motisons Jewellers have soared in the range of 27-39 per cent in the last one month, post the Union Budget 2024. Among others, Titan has rallied 7 per cent; while Kalyan Jewellers and Thangamayil Jewellery rose 4 per cent and 2 per cent, respectively. 

The sharp rally in Gold-related stock prices was triggered after the Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a cut in custom duty on Gold and Silver to 6 per cent from 15 per cent.

On the MCX, Indian traded Gold futures tumbled from levels of Rs 72,718 on July 22, 2024 (day prior to the Union Budget) to a low of Rs 67,400 on July 25, 2024 – down 7.3 per cent in just three trading sessions. 
 

The sharp drop in physical Gold prices came as a sigh of relief to both for Gold buyers and Gold retailers. Analysts believe that retail sales would go up post the customs duty cut. Hence, stock prices of Gold jewellery makers gained in the following period.

However, post July 25, Gold prices have ascended in international market, thereby seeing a corresponding increase in the Indian Gold market too. International Gold prices were seen quoting at record high levels of $2,550 per ounce as bets of a September interest rate cut in the US rose.

Correspondingly, the MCX Gold prices have rallied back to Rs 71,700 levels – thus in a way, undoing the benefit of decline in prices post the Budget customs duty cut.
