An employee counts a wad of Indian Rupee currency notes at a livestock market ahead of the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on May 24, 2026. Eid al-Adha is one of the holiest Muslim holidays, marking the yearly pilgrimage, Hajj, to Mecca. During the festival, Muslims slaughter goats, sheep, and cattle in commemoration of the Prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son to demonstrate obedience to God. The meat is divided into three parts: one for family, one for friends and relatives, and one for the poor and needy. The ongoing Middle East crisis and disruptions to global supply chains have contributed to increased food and livestock prices, impacting the cost of Eid al-Adha celebrations. This situation has also affected the Indian economy by raising fuel and transportation costs, adding inflationary pressure, and disrupting trade routes and imports dependent on the region.

Gold ornaments are displayed in a jewelry polishing workshop, along with Indian currency notes, in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on April 28, 2026. Gold prices in India are soaring in May 2026 due to high import duties, a weakening Indian Rupee, and increased global demand for safe-haven assets. Rising geopolitical tensions, central bank purchases, and strong domestic demand for gold-backed loans contribute to this trend. As of mid-May 2026, gold prices in India are nearing record highs at around Rs. 16,000 per gram for 24K gold. In response, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi urges citizens to refrain from buying gold for a year to reduce import costs, which exceeded $70 billion and are over 10% of India's total imports.

An employee counts a wad of Indian Rupee currency notes at a Hindustan Petroleum fuel station in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on May 15, 2026. India's state-run fuel retailers have raised petrol and diesel prices for the first time in four years by 3 rupees ($0.03) per litre, or more than 3%, according to dealers, to address losses from higher global crude oil prices. India, the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer, is among the last major economies to increase retail fuel prices following disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz due to the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. Earlier, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged citizens to reduce fuel consumption by using public transport, working from home, reducing overseas travel, and pausing gold purchases, as rising global energy prices impact the country's foreign exchange reserves.
