FAQs About Gold Purchase

Buying gold is an important decision, whether it’s for a wedding, investment, or gifting. Here are answers to some of the most common questions customers ask before purchasing gold jewellery.

1. How can I check if the gold is genuine?

Always look for the BIS Hallmark on gold jewellery. Hallmarked jewellery certifies the purity of the gold and ensures that you are getting exactly what you pay for.

2. What does 22K and 18K gold mean?

• 22K Gold (916): Contains 91.6% pure gold and is ideal for traditional jewellery.
• 18K Gold (750): Contains 75% pure gold and is commonly used for diamond and designer jewellery.

3. Is hallmarked jewellery mandatory?

Yes. Hallmarking provides assurance of purity and protects customers from buying under-purity gold.

4. Why do gold jewellery prices vary?

The final price depends on:

• Current gold rate
• Weight of the jewellery
• Making charges
• Applicable taxes

5. What are making charges?

Making charges are the labour and craftsmanship costs involved in creating a jewellery piece. Intricate designs generally have higher making charges than simple designs.

6. Should I keep the purchase bill?

Absolutely. A purchase bill serves as proof of ownership and is important for future exchange, resale, insurance, or warranty purposes.

7. Can I exchange my old gold jewellery?

Yes. Old gold can be exchanged for new jewellery after proper purity testing and valuation. The exchange value depends on the purity and weight of the gold.

8. Is gold jewellery a good investment?

Gold has traditionally been considered a valuable asset that retains long-term value. In addition to being an investment, jewellery can also be worn and enjoyed for years.

9. What should I check before buying gold jewellery?

Before purchasing, ensure that:
✓ The jewellery is BIS Hallmarked
