Bridal sets
Necklace, earrings, bangles and maang tikka matched as one set, weighed piece by piece.
Today's rate, the making-charge band and what your old gold is worth — read it here, not after you have already fallen for a piece.
Metal, making and GST are three different numbers. Most showrooms show one. Move the sliders and watch where the money goes.
Old gold is credited at 96% of the day's 22K rate, which covers the refining loss. Your pieces are weighed and tested in front of you before anything is agreed.
A bridal set and a daily-wear chain have nothing in common except the metal. Each carries its own weight range and charge band.
Necklace, earrings, bangles and maang tikka matched as one set, weighed piece by piece.
Chains, studs, rings and mangalsutras in weights that survive everyday use.
Hallmarked 999 coins with the buyback rate stated on the day you buy.
Pooja items, gift sets and coins in 925 sterling, hallmarked the same way.
Nobody buys a wedding set online. They decide which showroom to walk into, and they decide it on whether the pricing looks honest from outside.
Every gold piece carries the BIS mark, a purity grade and a six-character HUID. That code can be checked independently, without taking anyone's word for it.
Intricate bridal work takes far more labour than a plain chain, so the charge runs 8% to 14% by category. One averaged number would be a lie in both directions.
Old jewellery is melted and tested, and a refining loss is real. It is deducted at a stated percentage, in front of you, rather than discovered at billing.
Illustrative structures for this concept. Real scheme terms are registered and handed over in writing at enrolment.
Because labour differs. A plain chain is drawn by machine; a bridal necklace is set by hand over weeks. The band runs from around 8% on simple pieces to 14% on heavy sets, and it is shown per category rather than as one number that would mislead on both ends.
Old jewellery has to be melted and tested, and some metal is genuinely lost in refining. The credit here is 96% of the day's 22K rate on the tested weight. The testing happens in front of you and the figure is agreed before anything is melted.
Every gold piece sold. The BIS mark carries a purity grade and a unique HUID, and that code can be verified independently. Unhallmarked gold is not sold here at any price.
Coins bought here are taken back at the published rate on the day of return, with no making deduction, because none was charged in the first place.
Most families message first for the morning rate and a few photographs, then arrive having already narrowed the choice. It makes the visit far shorter.
