Compare rates before buying: Gold prices can vary across cities and jewellers, so buyers should check the prevailing 24K, 22K and 18K rates before making a purchase.Â

MCX and retail prices are different: The MCX price is a futures-market benchmark, while the price quoted by a jeweller can include taxes, premiums and other charges.

Check the final jewellery bill: Buyers should look beyond the headline gold rate and account for GST, making charges, wastage charges and other applicable costs.

Check purity and hallmarking: For jewellery purchases, verify the BIS hallmark and HUID code, along with the stated purity and weight, before payingÂ
-
Avoid rushing into a large purchase: With gold experiencing significant day-to-day swings, buyers who are not purchasing for an immediate occasion may consider staggering purchases rather than committing the entire amount at one price.

Festival demand can affect local markets: Buyers approaching major festivals and wedding periods should compare quotes from multiple jewellers, as local premiums and making charges can differ even when the underlying gold rate is similar.
