India imported more silver in the first four months of 2024 than it did in the whole of last year, and according to data from Silver Academy, it is set to double again. The country imported 4,172 metric tons of silver between January and April 2024, surpassing 3,625 metric tons for all of 2023. This increase is driven by rising solar cell and module manufacturing, tightening global supply, and investor interest.
