How can you calculate the value of your gold?
Three factors determine the current value of your gold:
- Gold weight
- Gold purity
- Applicable gold rate
Gold value formula Gold value = Gold weight × gold rate per gram
Example gold value calculation Suppose a customer in Sri Ganganagar owns:
50 grams of 22K gold
22K gold rate: Rs. 13,277 per gram
Estimated gold value: 50 × Rs. 13,277 = Rs. 6,63,850
This is an estimate based on prevailing market rates. To understand how much loan amount this gold may support, check your gold loan eligibility online.
How do gold rates influence gold investments?
The daily gold rate affects the returns on physical gold, Gold ETFs, and Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs). Though these products work differently, their value is closely tied to gold price movements. Buyers and investors in Sri Ganganagar regularly track gold rates before making purchase or investment decisions.
How does the gold price in Sri Ganganagar today affect your gold loan amount?
The applicable gold rate on the day your gold is assessed determines your eligible loan amount not the rate from a previous month or the price you originally paid. A higher rate increases the loan amount available against the same gold, while a lower rate reduces it.
How is gold loan eligibility calculated?
Gold loan eligibility depends on:
- Gold weight
- Gold purity
- Applicable gold rate
- Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio
Under gold loan eligibility, the valuation is based only on the intrinsic value of the gold. Stones and other embellishments are not considered.
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.
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.
