Indian regulatory law protects jewelry investments through mandatory hallmarking. Inspect these three micro-stamps on every gold heirloom before completing your purchase.
BIS triangular insignia
Purity and fineness grade
Six-digit HUID code
The official triangular mark confirms that the piece was audited at a government-approved assaying centre against national gold purity benchmarks.
Stamped explicitly as 22K916 for ninety-one point six percent pure gold or 18K750 for durable gem-setting suites, eliminating alloy ambiguity.
A unique alphanumeric identifier laser-cut into the metal frame, allowing instant provenance tracking through the official BIS Care mobile registry.
Four steps from bullion to heirloom
Bullion assaying
Hand-forged filigree
Laser hallmarking
Ultrasonic final balance
Raw precious metal bars undergo certified X-ray fluorescence spectrometry to verify elemental purity before any melting or alloying begins.
Master karigars draw molten metal through custom drawplates, twisting fine wires and soldering granules using historical flame-torch joinery.
Completed articles travel to independent testing centres for government-sanctioned HUID engraving and microscopic punch verification.
Pieces are weighed on calibrated gemological scales and cleansed in ultrasonic baths to confirm gross and net metal weights to two decimals.
When we exchanged my mother-in-law's vintage bridal sets, the testing bench printed out the full alloy breakdown in ten minutes. The net weight credit matched our family records down to the centigram.
