Customs crackdown on gold: Declare all jewellery at IGI

New Delhi: The customs authorities are cracking down on Indians bringing gold into the country as the department has made it mandatory for all flyers at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) to declare their jewellery.
The degree of vigilance has increased at international airports in India and a punitive fine is being imposed to prevent the easy entry of gold.
The customs department has made it mandatory for all flyers arriving in Delhi from international destinations to fill a detailed declaration form.
The new form was to be introduced from January 1 but there were some problems. It will now be available to the flyers from next month.
The new form has 19 questions while the old one had only four.
