Tariff Values for Gold increased & Silver decreased

THE Central Government has increased the Tariff Value (USD) of gold and reduced that of Silver. The tariff values of various Palm oils, Palmolein have been increased. Tariff value of Crude Soyabean oil and Poppy seeds remain stationary and that of Brass scrap looks south wards.

The marriage season is about to end and the appeal made to the ‘common man' by the Finance Minister to contain their passion for gold seems to have made no dent.

The rates as on 21.05.2013 and 31.05.2013 are as under:
