How jewellery prices are worked out

Final price = (gold rate × weight) + making charges + GST. Making charges cover labour and design and can range from about 6% to 25% depending on the design. GST on gold jewellery is applied on the value including making charges.

Purity

  • 24K – 99.9% pure, used for coins and bars.
  • 22K (916) – 91.6% pure, most common for jewellery.
  • 18K (750) – 75% pure, used for stone-studded jewellery.

Tips before you buy

  • Buy only BIS hallmarked jewellery with a HUID code.
  • Ask whether stones are weighed separately – you should not pay gold rate for stone weight.
  • Making charges are often negotiable, especially during festivals and weddings.
  • Ask about the buy-back or exchange policy and deductions.
