Gold Buying Tips for Dhanteras and Diwali in Ranchi

Welcoming Prosperity on Dhanteras

Dhanteras is considered the most auspicious day of the year to purchase gold. However, during the festive rush in Ranchi showrooms, buyers often ignore essential checks, leading to compromised purchases. Proper planning ensures you secure genuine assets that bring prosperity.

Always Verify the Hallmark

Under Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) rules, never buy un-hallmarked gold. Look for the three essential symbols: the BIS Logo, Purity Grade (e.g. 22K916), and the unique 6-digit alphanumeric HUID code engraved on the piece. You can verify this code using the BIS Care App.

Prefer Gold Coins for Simple Investments

If your primary motive is saving, gold coins or bars are better than jewelry. Coins carry lower making charges (often starting at 2% to 4%) compared to intricate jewelry designs, maximizing your investment value. Coins are also easier to store and resell later without deduction.

Pre-Book to Avoid the Rush

Ranchi showrooms experience heavy crowds on Dhanteras, which can make shopping stressful. Many smart buyers visit our showroom a week before the festival, select their designs, and pay a deposit. On Dhanteras day, they simply collect their pre-booked jewelry quickly and hassle-free.
