Tax Treatment When You Sell

Gold held over 24 months attracts 12.5% LTCG when sold; held under 24 months, your gain is added to slab income. Aadhaar is mandatory; PAN is required if your sale exceeds ₹2,00,000.

What to Watch For

·         Stones or lac weighed with gold – insist on removal before weighing

·         Visual purity check instead of XRF – always request machine testing

·         No written receipt – a signed receipt is a legal requirement

·         Making charge deductions at resale – these do not apply
