How to check gold purity in Kolhapur

Before buying or pledging gold in Kolhapur, verify its gold purity. Gold purity also affects its assessed value when you use it for a gold loan, while the gold rate in Kolhapur determines the applicable market value.

  • BIS Hallmark: The BIS hallmark confirms that the gold has been tested for purity. It also includes details such as the purity grade, hallmarking centre and jeweller's identification mark.
  • Acid test: A professional applies nitric acid to a small gold sample and assesses its purity through the resulting chemical reaction.
  • X-ray fluorescence: This non-destructive test uses X-rays to analyse the gold's composition.
  • Electronic gold tester: This device measures electrical conductivity to determine the karat reading.
  • Assay testing:  A certified assayer melts a gold sample to measure its purity.
  • Density testing: This method compares the density of the gold with the known density of pure gold.

Once you verify the purity of your gold, you can use its weight, purity and the prevailing gold rate in Kolhapur to assess its value.

How do gold rates influence gold investments?

Gold prices directly affect the value of gold investments. When gold prices rise, the value of physical gold, Gold ETFs, and Sovereign Gold Bonds generally increases. When prices fall, their value may also decline. Although each investment option works differently, all are linked to movements in the underlying gold price.

How does the gold price in Kolhapur today affect your gold loan amount?

The gold rate in Kolhapur on the day of valuation determines your eligible loan amount. A higher gold price may increase the loan amount, while a lower price may reduce it. The rate you paid earlier does not determine the loan value.


How is gold loan eligibility calculated?

Your eligible loan amount depends on:

  • Gold weight
  • Gold purity
  • Applicable gold rate on the day of assessment
  • 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, actual gold 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. The LTV ratio must be maintained throughout the loan tenure and may be revised as per RBI guidelines and lender policies.

The loan amount is determined using the applicable LTV ratio, which varies by loan size.
