A possible customs duty hike on as many as 35 items may be on the cards in the upcoming union budget. This could include things like jewellery and electronics 

Budget 2023: Electronics, jewellery may get more expensive

A possible customs duty hike on as many as 35 items including high-end electronics and jewellery, may be on the cards in the upcoming union budget. 

A possible customs duty hike on as many as 35 items including high-end electronics and jewellery, may be on the cards in the upcoming union budget.&nbsp;

Budget 2023 may see a customs duty hike for a slew of non-essential items. As per an economic times report, a list of 35 items has been drawn up by the govt and are being examined for a possible hike in customs duty. Private jets, helicopters, high-end electronics, jewellery are some of the items that could become costlier.&nbsp;
One of the main reasons behind this move is to curb imports and encourage local manufactuing, giving a boost to 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' initiatives. In fact, import tariffs on a number of items have already been hiked in the past few years to support such initiatives.&nbsp; As per the economic times report, India's current account deficit reached a 9-year high of 4.4% of GDP for the July to Sept 2022 quarter.&nbsp;

Budget 2023: Will govt cut import duty on gold?

Budget 2023: As the government is looking to push exports and manufacturing of the gems and jewellery sector, reports suggest that the government could consider lowering the import duty on gold in the upcoming budget on feb 1st.
<h3>BUDGET 2023- IMPORT DUTY</h3>
The basic customs duty on gold is currently at 12.5 per cent but according to reports, the government could consider lowering the import duty on gold to boost shipment amidst a slowdown in demand in the US and Europe and a forecast of recession in the western world.&nbsp; India is the largest importer of gold, which mainly caters to the demand of the jewellery industry. Gems and jewellery exports fell 27 per cent to $2.5 billion in November from $3.46 billion in October. Industry experts say that recessionary conditions next year may pose further challenges. Customs duty hikes are being considered on private jets, helicopters, high-end electronic items, plastic goods, jewellery, high-gloss paper and vitamins, sources said.
Not only this, the government would receive a big boost in revenues, both customs and GST, by slashing the import duty on gold to a level that makes smuggling totally unattractive.
