“India’s bullion industry is set to revive its gold deposit scheme in a bid to mobilise gold coins and bars lying idle. The Save Gold Campaign (Swarna Bachao Abhiyan) is hoped will mop up some of the gold currently lying fallow with individuals, banks, high networth individuals, charitable trusts and even temple trusts, that is estimated to be as much as 25,000 tonnes. The consumer would take sealed gold and authenticity certificate to the bank, which would issue a deposit certificate for a valid period, ranging from one and a half to three years. After the said period, the depositor would get the gold back with interest as promised by the bank.”
