Your 10 g of 22K gold is worth about ₹1,30,661 after the deduction.

It holds 9.16 g of pure gold. The deduction alone is ₹6,877.

These figures are estimates from the numbers you enter. Returns are not promised, and tax is left out unless stated. This is education, not investment advice.

How this is worked out

Jewellery is never pure gold. 22K is 91.6% gold, 18K is 75%. The rest is copper or silver that holds the shape. So we first find how much pure gold your piece holds, then value it at today’s 24K rate.

Value = weight × (purity ÷ 99.9%) × today’s 24K rate per gram. Then the jeweller’s deduction comes off.

Before you sell or exchange

  • Look for the BIS hallmark and the six-character HUID code. Hallmarked gold is easier to value fairly.
  • Ask the shop for its deduction in writing before it melts or tests the piece.
  • Stones and enamel are weighed with the gold but are not paid for as gold.
  • Rates differ between shops and through the day. Check two shops if you can.
