Notes :
1. Value of gold contained in gold ornaments should be reduced by 14 to 20 per cent of ruling rates of standard gold, as per the practice prevalent in the bullion market and the amount of reduction has to be worked out in the following manner :
|
Plain gold bangles and ornaments made of solid gold |
Other gold ornaments | |
| Difference in value between 24 carats of standard gold and 22 carats of gold ornaments (gold ornaments are generally made of 22 carats of gold) | 8.33% | 8.33% |
| Soldering made of copper, silver, etc., used in making ornaments | 2.5% to 5% | 8.33% |
| Shortage of gold in melting, mint charges payable to Government, expenditure on freight, insurance, etc., of sending gold ornaments to approved mint for conversion into standard gold bars | 1.25% | 1.25% |
| Margin of profit of the dealer when ornaments are sold in market | 2% | 2% |
| Total reduction | 14.08% to 16.58% | 19.91% |
2. Silverwares, utensils, etc., is liable for wealth-tax.
3. Conversion table:
| 10 grams | = | 0.857 tola | 1 tola | = | 11.664 grams |

Dear Team TaxGuru,
Greetings from Women’s Synergy! This is in appreciation of your articles and posts from time to time which we found very useful, informative and educative as well. We would like to know if you could be one of our knowledge resource partners along Financial Literacy and related fields for lay women registered in our platforms and consider conducting some workshops for our women or build up training modules for dissemination among prospective women or Train-the-Trainer programs etc. for such women registered with us, so that this also becomes an excellent pretext for synergy creation for development among women along other fronts as well? If inclined to this proposition of ours, could you please connect with us @ womensynergy@gmail.com or 9711073161 where some deeper thoughts could be taken forward towards such a prospect for our women’s groups.
