Frequently Asked Questions
How is GST calculated on gold jewellery?
In India, GST on gold jewellery is split into two components. A 3% GST is applied to the base value of the gold, and a 5% GST is applied to the making charges. This calculator automatically computes both for you.
What is the difference between 22K and 24K gold?
24K gold is 99.9% pure, making it very soft and generally unsuitable for intricate jewellery. 22K gold is 91.6% pure, alloyed with metals like copper or zinc to give it the strength needed for crafting ornaments.
Are making charges fixed or a percentage?
It depends on the jeweller and the complexity of the design. Simple machine-made chains might have a fixed making charge per gram, while intricate bridal wear often incurs a percentage-based charge (usually between 8% to 25% of the gold value).
