Gold prices in Pune influence the value of eligible gold pledged as collateral and the loan amount you may receive. When gold prices rise, the assessed value may increase, potentially allowing a higher loan amount. When prices fall, the eligible amount may decrease. The final loan amount depends on gold purity, net weight, the applicable loan-to-value (LTV) limit and lender eligibility criteria.
What decides your eligible loan amount?
Your eligible gold loan amount depends on the assessed value of your gold and the applicable lending limits. Key factors include:
- Gold purity: Eligible 18-22 karat jewellery and ornaments, and gold coins up to 24 karat, may be accepted.
- Net gold weight: Stones, gems and other non-gold materials are excluded from valuation.
- Applicable gold rate: The lender uses the relevant benchmark price to assess your gold's value.
- LTV limit: The maximum loan amount depends on the applicable LTV limit for your loan size.
- Interest rate and charges: Review the gold loan interest rate and applicable charges before applying.
Please note: We do not simply use today's headline rate. As per latest RBI guidelines, we use whichever is lower between the previous day's closing price or the 30-day average closing price published by IBJA or a SEBI-regulated commodity exchange to evaluate the gold’s value. This protects you from a sudden price spike inflating things unrealistically.
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.
