India to release July trade data at 1 p.m. on Monday

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - India will release trade data for July at 1300 IST (0730 GMT) on Monday, a government statement said.

Last month, the trade deficit narrowed to $12.24 billion from a seven-month high in the previous month, helped by a slowdown in gold imports. However, it could again shoot up as gold imports rose in July, according to finance ministry estimates.
