非印度居民通过携带黄金入境来缓解黄金短缺

日期:2014-01-02
    除了在飞机的卫生间里走私金条,印度人已经找到了满足他们对黄金需求的另一种方法:非印度居民正通过在进入印度时携带规定的1千克黄金来缓解该国短缺的黄金。在许多情况下,交易商支付这些人的飞机票价,以换取这些黄金的供给。
  由于印度经常帐赤字恶化,印度政府对黄金进口采取了严厉的措施。除了一系列的进口限制以外,黄金进口税已经达到了创纪录的10%。而且这些限制措施似乎还看不到尽头:上周该国央行宣称其将保持这些措施,直到对经常帐赤字不那么担忧。
  同时,印度人一直在支付黄金溢价—较伦敦定盘价高出30美元/盎司。
  根据规定,在国外呆满六个月以上的非印度居民可以在进入印度时携带一千克黄金,并支付进口税。据报道,在印度婚季,黄金供应量非常低,一些交易商只得给那些愿意携带黄金入境的乘客支付飞机票。
  一位分析师指出,“为了能够获得高额的黄金溢价,一些交易商一直在寻找非印度居民,并为他们支付部分或全部飞机票价。”根据一位机场官员,本月迄今,大约有80千克的黄金通过这种方式进口到印度。
