प्रश्न
Recently Government of India has doubled the import duty on gold. What impact is it likely to have on foreign exchange rate and how?
उत्तर
An increase in import duty will lead to a fall in the import of gold. This will control the demand and hence there is decline in the demand for foreign exchange. Assuming other things remain constant, a decline in the demand for foreign exchange will reduce the foreign exchange rate. Hence, this is reflected by a shift in the demand curve to the left as shown below.
