Things to Consider When Buying Gold
When purchasing gold jewelry, never ignore the quality. Always buy jewelry with a hallmark, which is a government guarantee of gold purity. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is the only agency in India that certifies hallmarks. Each carat of gold has a different hallmark, which you should check and understand before buying gold.
