MMTC-PAMP to launch silver recycling pilot in 3 months amid supply concern

Precious metals refiner MMTC-PAMP plans to start silver recycling at its existing stores on a pilot basis within three months as rising demand threatens to create serious supply-side constraints, the company's top executive said. Managing Director and CEO Samit Guha said the company is entering silver recycling because the economics are now more favourable, while global mine production capacity shows no signs of significant expansion despite growing demand. "If silver demand keeps going the way it is, we could have serious supply-side constraints. Eventually, recycled silver will have to play a bigger role to fill this gap," Guha told PTI in an interview. He called on the government to encourage silver recycling, noting that Indian households hold an estimated 25,000 tonnes of gold and ten times that amount in silver. MMTC-PAMP operates 20 stores for gold recycling that can be adapted to handle silver. The company plans to double its store count over the next five years. "We need

Precious metal refiners seek duty parity to ease import disadvantage

The precious metal refining sector expects the government to address duty disparities that put domestic refiners at a disadvantage compared to imports through free trade agreements, MMTC-PAMP Managing Director and CEO Sami Guha said on Friday. "One of the expectations we've had as not just MMTC-PAMP, but as the whole precious metal refining sector has seen this disparity, which is there in duty, especially through the SEPA route between what we get as Dore versus what refined bullion is imported at," Guha said. The duty gap puts refiners at a significant disadvantage, though the government appears to be aware of the issue, he said. FTAs signed after the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) have excluded bullion, and the industry hopes future trade agreements follow the same approach by not including gold and silver in lower duty structures. To boost India's global standing in refining and increase the number of London Bullion Market Association-accredited refiners, the government needs

Gold, silver to stay firm next week as traders brace for US tariff verdict

Gold and silver prices are expected to sustain positive momentum next week amid heightened geopolitical tensions and the uncertainty surrounding the US Supreme Court's impending decision on President Donald Trump's tariff policy, analysts said. The release of inflation data from major economies, including the US, India, and Germany, along with trade and investment numbers from China and commentary from some Federal Reserve officials, will also be closely watched by the traders, they added. "The bullions are expected to continue their positive momentum and corrective moves should be a buying opportunity, as focus again will remain on the US Supreme court hearing in the Trump's trade tariffs case and the geopolitical issues surrounding US President Donald Trump's actions & comments," Pranav Mer, Vice President, EBG - Commodity & Currency Research, JM Financial Services Ltd, said. On the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), gold futures climbed by Rs 3,058, or 2.25 per cent, over the .

India should boost silver processing and diversify imports, says GTRI

Silver is not just a precious metal but a key industrial and energy transition input, and India should focus on processing it by securing long-term overseas mining supplies, boosting domestic refining and recycling, reducing reliance on imported finished silver, and diversifying import sources, GTRI said. It said China is the world's dominant processor of silver. Beijing is importing around USD 5.6 billion of silver ores and concentrates out of a global total of USD 6.3 billion. It refines this metal domestically and exports higher-value silver embedded in electronics, medical devices, and solar panels. India, by contrast, imported about USD 6.4 billion of refined silver in 2024, 21.4 per cent of global trade, making it the world's largest consumer of finished silver rather than a processor. "India must learn to process silver from the ore stage for domestic value addition," Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI) Founder Ajay Srivastava said. In FY25, India exported just USD 478.
