With 10 g of 22K gold at ₹6,200 per gram, 3% wastage, ₹500/g making charge, ₹50 hallmarking, 3% GST, and a 2% buyback discount, the all-in retail price is ₹74,795. Wastage, making, and GST add ₹12,295 over the pure metal value, and buyback would net roughly ₹73,299.
Retail = (Metal × (1 + wastage%) + Making + Fixed) × (1 + GST%)
Buyback discount is applied after tax to estimate how much a store may pay when repurchasing the ornament. If GST or discounts change in your region, adjust the inputs accordingly.
Rounded to two decimals; internal calculations keep full precision.
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Metal / Purity | Gold, 22K (916) |
| Weight | 10 g |
| Rate per gram | ₹6,200 |
| Wastage | 3% |
| Making charge | ₹500 per gram |
| GST / Discount | 3% GST, 2% buyback |
1. Purity factor = 916 / 1000 = 0.916 → Metal value = 10 × 6,200 × 0.916 = ₹56,720.
2. Wastage (3%) = ₹1,701.6; making = ₹500 × 10 = ₹5,000; hallmark fee = ₹50.
3. Subtotal before tax = ₹63,471.6; GST (3%) = ₹1,904.15.
4. Retail invoice = ₹65,375.75; price per gram = ₹6,537.58.
5. Buyback (2% discount) ≈ ₹64,068.24.
BIS hallmarking in India certifies purity as parts per 1000 (e.g., 916). Always match the hallmark with what you enter for purity to avoid overpaying.
Making charges vary widely by design. Converting them to a per-gram number helps compare jewellers. Wastage above 8–9% for mass-produced designs is usually negotiable.
3% GST is applied on the total taxable value (metal + making + wastage). This is mandated by CBIC notifications for jewellery supplies.
Divide the karat by 24 and multiply by 1000. Example: 22K → (22 / 24) × 1000 ≈ 916.
Most jewellers deduct 1–3% of the prevailing rate plus melt loss. Enter their quoted percentage to simulate the net amount you would receive.
