Frequently asked questions
How is gold purity defined?
Gold purity is measured in carats (K). 24K gold is considered 99.9% pure, 22K gold is approximately 91.6% pure, and 18K gold is 75% pure. The Doffl calculator allows you to select these common purities.
What is the formula for calculating gold price?
The general formula is: (Weight × Rate per Gram × Purity Percentage) + Making Charges + 3% GST on Gold Value + 5% GST on Making Charges (if applicable). Please verify current GST rules as they may change.
Can I calculate the price of 22K gold jewellery?
Yes, our Gold Price Calculator specifically supports 22K gold. You can input the weight, the current 22K gold rate, and include any making charges and GST to get an accurate estimate for your jewellery.
What are making charges and how do they affect the price?
Making charges are the costs associated with crafting gold into jewellery. They are typically added to the base gold value and can be a flat rate per gram, a percentage of the gold value, or a fixed amount per piece. Our calculator allows you to factor these in.
How does GST apply to gold purchases in India?
In India, a 3% GST is typically applied to the value of gold, and a 5% GST is applied to making charges. The Doffl calculator includes these components for a comprehensive price estimate. Always confirm current GST rates with official sources.
Can you provide a worked example for gold price calculation?
Certainly. For 10 grams of 22K gold (91.6% purity) at a rate of ₹6,500 per gram, with ₹500 per gram making charges: Gold Value = 10g × ₹6,500 × 0.916 = ₹59,540. Making Charges = 10g × ₹500 = ₹5,000. GST on Gold = ₹59,540 × 3% = ₹1,786.20. GST on Making Charges = ₹5,000 × 5% = ₹250. Total Price = ₹59,540 + ₹5,000 + ₹1,786.20 + ₹250 = ₹66,576.20.
