Your gold's value is checked on the day your loan is approved. This sets your loan amount. It does not depend on last month's rate or what you paid when you first bought the gold. When gold prices rise in Bangalore, the same jewellery can support a bigger loan. When prices fall, the eligible amount goes down too.
Gold prices in Bangalore move daily. Check your gold loan eligibility to see how much you can borrow right now.
How is gold loan eligibility calculated?
Your eligible loan amount depends on:
- Gold weight
- Gold purity
- The applicable gold rate on the day of assessment
- The Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio
Only the pure gold content is assessed. Stones, enamel, and other decorations on your jewellery are not counted.
The final loan amount depends on the eligible LTV, your gold's actual purity, and the lower of either the previous day's closing price or the 30-day average closing price published by IBJA or a SEBI-regulated commodity exchange. This LTV ratio must be held through the loan tenure and may change as per RBI guidelines and lender policy.
The loan amount also depends on the applicable LTV slab, which changes with loan size. Click here to know more.
Gold loan basics: What you should know before applying

A few things worth knowing before you apply:

- Only one valid KYC document is needed: Aadhaar card, Voter ID, passport, driving license, NREGA job card, or a letter from the NPR
- You can choose between two repayment options: Bullet Repayment, where the principal and applicable interest are paid together at the end of the loan tenure, or Regular Repayment, where interest is paid half-yearly and the principal is repaid at the end of the tenure.
