Hi Shubroto! 22-carat gold jewelry in duty-free limits is likely to get customs clearance. But 24-carat gold jewelry will not go through customs at Indian airports, since 24-carat gold is considered for commercial use.

No mention of the purity of the gold, or how Customs will assess it — 14, 18, 22 carats, or even 24-carat gold biscuits (fashioned into jewellery)?
