MCX prices differ from international prices because you need to factor in additional costs when commodities are imported to India.
Factors causing price differences
You will notice price disparities due to three main factors:
- Cost of insurance and freight: Transportation and insurance expenses for importing commodities
- Basic Customs Duty (BCD) + Social Welfare Surcharge (SWS): Government taxes applied on imports
- Warehouse delivery overheads: Storage and handling costs at delivery centres
