Example reviews

  • Our bou-bhaat set, explained gram by gram

    They weighed every piece in front of us and wrote the making charge next to the weight on the bill. No surprises at the counter, and the set was ready two days early.

  • Exchanged my mother's old bangles

    The purity test machine was on the counter, the reading was shown to us, and the exchange value matched what the website estimate said within a few hundred rupees.

  • Chose earrings on a video call

    My sister is in Pune, so we did a video call first. They held each jhumko to the camera under daylight and sent weights on WhatsApp before we came in.

    Farhana K.Park Circus · July

  • Sanchay scheme, finally redeemed

    Paid eleven months, they added the twelfth. Redeemed it for a chain and a ring. Saturday evenings are crowded, so book a slot if you can.

    Rajib M.Dum Dum · June

  • HUID on every piece

    I checked the HUID of my daughter's ring on the BIS app at the counter itself. The staff showed me how and didn't rush us at all.

    Ananya G.Howrah · May

  • Remodelled a 40-year-old necklace

    The karigar suggested keeping the old filigree and only re-setting the clasp and the drop. Kept the memory, cut the making charge.

Questions

Asked at our counter

Pricing, purity, exchange and Sanchay, in plain words.

Ask us anything on WhatsApp
How is the price of a piece worked out?
Gold weight × the day's rate for its purity, plus our making charge (a percentage shown on the tag), plus stones if any, plus the ₹45 hallmarking fee, plus 3% GST on the total. All of it is printed on the bill, line by line.
Is every piece hallmarked?
Yes. Every gold piece we sell carries the BIS hallmark: the BIS mark, the purity grade (for example 22K916) and a six-character HUID code. You can check the HUID yourself in the BIS CARE app before you pay.
Do you exchange gold bought from other jewellers?
Yes. We test it on an XRF machine at the counter in front of you, weigh it on a certified scale and value the pure gold content. Exchange for new jewellery gets a better rate than selling for cash.
What happens if I miss a Sanchay instalment?
You can pay a missed month within the next 30 days. If more than one month is missed, the plan stays open but the maturity date moves by those months, and the bonus month still applies once all 11 are paid.
Can I see pieces on a video call before visiting?
Yes. Book a video call slot and one of us will show you the pieces under daylight, with weights and prices, on WhatsApp video. Pieces you like are kept aside for 3 days.
Do you make custom designs or remodel old jewellery?
Our karigars work upstairs. Bring a photo, a sketch or an old piece; we make a wax model for approval first. Most custom work takes 2–4 weeks.
