In mid‑October 2026 I posted a series of X notes analysing RBI’s gold‑sale options and Indian housing‑loan interest distributions.

RBI holds **660 tons** of gold. It will be cheaper and then rbi can always purchase the gold back when there is a redemption.

ETFs currently own about **120 tons** of gold and are growing. It will reduce some physical import demand perhaps as etfs own about 120 tons of gold this far but it's growing.

85% of all loans by value now are between 7 and 9%. 15% are above.

In 2023, the ranges were more like 8 to 10%.

I concluded that selling gold to ETFs while retaining repurchase rights would lower systemic money supply, keep custodial control, and satisfy growing ETF demand.
