The final loan amount depends on:
- The applicable Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio
- The purity of your gold
- The net weight of your gold
- The gold price used during valuation
Before applying, check your gold loan eligibility to estimate how much you may be able to borrow based on the 916 gold rate today in Bangalore.
What decides your eligible gold loan amount?
Your eligible gold loan amount is determined using the following factors:
- Weight of your gold
- Purity of your gold
- Applicable gold rate on the day of assessment
- Applicable Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio
Only the intrinsic value of your gold is considered during valuation. Stones and other embellishments attached to the jewellery are not included.
The final loan amount depends on the applicable LTV ratio, the purity of your gold, and the gold price used for valuation. The valuation is based on the lower of the previous day's closing price or the 30-day average closing price published by IBJA or a SEBI-regulated commodity exchange. The applicable LTV ratio must be maintained throughout the loan tenure and may change as per RBI guidelines and the lender's policy. The applicable LTV ratio varies based on the loan amount.
