Buy certified gold
Always buy certified gold bearing the hallmark of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). There is a 6-digit hallmark code on gold. It is called Hallmark Unique Identification Number or HUID. This number is alphanumeric i.e. something like this- AZ4524. Through hallmarking, it is possible to find out how many carats a gold is. 2. Cross check the price
Cross check the correct weight of gold and its price on the day of purchase from many sources (such as the website of India Bullion and Jewelers Association). The price of gold varies according to 24 carat, 22 carat and 18 carat. 24 carat gold is considered the purest gold, but jewellery is not made from it because it is very soft. 3. Don’t make cash payment, take the bill
While buying gold, it is better to make payment through UPI (like Bhim App) and digital banking instead of cash payment. If you want, you can also make payment through debit or credit card. After this, do not forget to take the bill. If you have ordered online, then definitely check the packaging.
