When investing in gold, especially jewelry, it is essential to verify the purity of gold. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) provides hallmarking that ensures gold’s purity and authenticity.
24 Karat Gold: 99.9% pure, used for coins and bars. Marked as 999.
22 Karat Gold: 91.6% pure (22/24 = 0.916). Commonly used in jewelry. Marked as 916.
21 Karat Gold: 87.5% pure. Marked as 875.
18 Karat Gold: 75% pure. Marked as 750.
14 Karat and below: Lower purity, used in affordable jewelry.
Note: 24K gold is too soft for jewelry. That’s why jewelers generally use 18K, 20K, or 22K gold to craft ornaments. Always check for BIS hallmark and the respective purity mark before purchase.
The variation in gold and silver rates across Indian cities is primarily due to:
Local demand and supply
Transportation and logistics costs
Local taxes and state-level duties
Jeweler’s margin
Therefore, it’s advised to compare rates in your local market before buying and look for reliable sellers who offer BIS-hallmarked gold.
Several macroeconomic and geopolitical factors are pushing precious metal prices upward:
Rising global inflation
Fluctuating US Dollar index and interest rates
Increased retail demand in India ahead of the festive season
Geopolitical tensions in international markets
Stock market volatility, driving investors to safe-haven assets like gold and silver
With festive and wedding seasons approaching in India, gold prices are expected to remain strong, and silver too is gaining popularity for industrial use and as an investment option.
If you are looking for long-term investment, many financial experts suggest that this could be a good time to:
Buy gold coins or digital gold
Invest in sovereign gold bonds (SGBs)
Purchase silver bars or ornamental jewelry before prices rise further
However, do note that prices may fluctuate, and it’s best to consult a certified investment advisor before making bulk purchases.
