When purchasing gold, knowing the purity of the jewellery helps you make informed decisions, regardless of whether you are a jewellery buyer, seeking financial support through gold loans, or investing. So, purchasing hallmarked jewellery provides a third-party assurance of the purity of gold for the quoted price.

What is Hallmarking?

Hallmarking is the accurate determination and official recording of the proportionate content of precious metal in articles made from that metal. Hallmarks are, thus, official marks used in India as a guarantee of purity or fineness of precious metal articles.
Apart from attesting to the purity of the gold, hallmarks can also contain details about the manufacturer, the year of hallmarking, and the hallmarking center's location. These extra details increase the authenticity and traceability of gold items.

    Important FAQs to note, according to the website of the Bureau of Indian Standards.

    What should one look for in a jewellery shop?
    The registered jeweller shall display a BIS logo with “Hallmarked jewellery available for sale” outside the sales outlet. A certificate of registration issued by BIS shall be displayed by the gold jeweller in the jewellery shop. The jeweller shall have a magnifying glass of minimum 10X magnification to show the hallmark to the customer in the hallmarked jewellery. He/she may also display the relation of fineness with caratage.

    What are the benefits of purchasing hallmarked jewellery for customers?
    Hallmarking of jewellery provides third party assurance (in this case from a government-owned organisation ie. BIS) that the customer is getting the right purity of gold/silver for the given price (value for money).

    What does the hallmark on gold jewellery consist of?

    Since the introduction of Hallmark Unique Identification (HUID) on July 1, 2021, a hallmark consists of 3 components : BIS logo, purity of the article in caratage and fineness and six-digit alphanumeric HUID number.

    What is HUID in hallmarked gold jewellery?

    HUID is a Hallmark Unique Identification number and is one of the components of a hallmark. It is a six-digit alphanumeric number which is unique for each hallmarked item and is traceable. The customer can also verify the HUID number on the BIS Care App using the ‘Verify HUID’ feature.

    Are the hallmarking charges dependent on the weight of the jewellery?
    No, hallmarking charges are paid per article irrespective of its weight.
