Govt Sources Have Rejected Bloomberg Report That RBI May Have Sold $12bn Worth Of Gold In The Two Weeks
The Share Of Gold In India’s Forex Reserves Rose From 13.92% At End-September 2025 To 16.70% On March 31, 2026, And Further To 16.85% As Of May 22, 2026.
A news report published by Bloomberg stating that RBI may have sold gold amounting to approximately USD 12 billion is fake. The FactCheck by PIB on X clarified this claim is fake. According to the Bloomberg report, a decline in the reported value of the RBI’s bullion reserves came despite an increase in import duties on gold, which would ordinarily have boosted the value of the central bank’s gold holdings.
According to RBI , the share of gold in India’s foreign exchange reserves rose from 13.92% at end-September 2025 to 16.70% on March 31, 2026, and further to 16.85% as of May 22, 2026.
The RBI has been actively repatriating its bullion holdings in recent years. By the end of April 2026, the central bank held 880.52 metric tonnes, with 77% of its massive gold stash physically secured within India. The steady increase in gold repatriation over recent years suggests that the RBI, like several other emerging-market central banks, has become more cautious about keeping a large share of its reserves abroad. Concerns over the safety of overseas-held assets intensified after Western nations froze Russian reserves following the outbreak of the Ukraine conflict.
