The estimated growth of GDP to 7.2-7.5 percent in the second half of 2018 should help boost consumer demand and give a positive momentum to gold and jewelry sales. The issue of import duty on gold has not been addressed in the budget, and we hope it is considered to give a fillip to the domestic industry.
