Gold Buying Tips
A few checks worth making before any gold purchase.
Check for Hallmark
Always buy BIS hallmarked gold jewelry with HUID (Hallmark Unique ID). The hallmark ensures purity and can be verified on the BIS Care app.
Avoid Rahu Kaal
Even on auspicious days, avoid buying gold during Rahu Kaal timings. Check local Rahu Kaal times before making your purchase.
Best Days of Week
Monday, Thursday, and Sunday are considered best for buying gold. Thursday (Guru) and Sunday (Ravi) Pushya Nakshatra are most auspicious.
