Dhanteras 2026: Gold Jewellery Offers, Purity Checks, and Buying Tips
As Dhanteras and Diwali 2026 approach, major jewellers like Malabar Gold Diamonds, Joyalukkas, Tanishq, and Kalyan offer various discounts on gold jewellery, including making charges and old gold exchange benefits. Buyers are advised to verify gold purity using the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) hallmark, which includes the BIS logo, purity grade, and a unique HUID code. The BIS Care app helps authenticate jewellery, while hallmarking fees and GST apply. Understanding making charges and verifying authenticity are key for informed festive purchases.
