The gold rate when your gold is valued affects your eligible loan amount. A higher gold price may increase the value of your gold, while a lower price may reduce the amount you can borrow.
What decides your eligible loan amount?
Your gold loan eligibility depends on:
- Weight of gold
- Purity of gold
- Applicable gold rate on the day of assessment
- Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio
Only the actual gold content is considered during valuation. Stones, enamel work, and other decorative parts are not included.
Lenders calculate the gold value based on applicable regulatory guidelines using 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.
Please note, the maximum LTV eligible for a loan depends on the loan amount and cannot be more than the limits given. To know more, click here.
