Despite common belief, hallmarked gold does not cost extra. The price is the same, but hallmarking certifies purity, giving customers added confidence when buying or reselling.
Key facts about hallmarking in India:
No price difference, but purity is assured
Only BIS-approved assay centres can certify gold
Few centres exist in small towns, limiting access for many jewellers
More hallmarking centres are needed to protect buyers in rural markets
With rising consumer awareness, there’s a growing demand for the government to expand hallmarking infrastructure, especially in Tier-2 and Tier-3 towns.
Investing in gold continues to be a stalwart investment strategy, amidst today’s inflation, and recent global economic instability. Gold whether in jewellery, bullion, and even digital formats, is viewed as an important store of wealth in the Indian household.
With today’s gold prices dipping, many consumers see this as a lucrative opportunity to buy, especially with upcoming festivals such as Raksha Bandhan and Onam fast approaching.
