gold cuff bracelet is a rigid, unclosed bangle-style bracelet that wraps around the wrist without a clasp. Unlike a standard bangle that slides over the hand, a cuff bracelet has an opening that allows it to be placed on and removed from the wrist. Gold cuffs typically weigh more than standard bangles due to their wider and thicker design.
When it comes to resale, only gold weight and purity matter. This guide covers typical weights for gold cuff bracelets, today’s live IBJA rate and exactly how much cash you receive at Attica Gold.

Resale Value & Worked Example
The resale formula is: Net Gold Weight (g) × Purity (%) × Today’s 24K IBJA Rate. For an 18g plain 22K cuff: 18 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹2,51,442.
For a stone-set cuff weighing 22g total with 4g of stones: net gold = 18g; payout = 18 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹2,51,442. Most cuff bracelet sales at today’s rates will exceed ₹2,00,000 – bring Aadhaar and PAN.
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 – Seller Protection
● 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
● Lump-sum quote without per-gram rate – always ask for the gram rate first

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a gold cuff bracelet worth today?
A plain 18g 22K cuff is worth ₹2,51,442 today. A 25g cuff brings ₹3,49,225.
What is the difference between a cuff bracelet and a bangle?
A bangle is a closed ring that slides over the hand. A cuff bracelet has an opening that allows it to be placed directly on the wrist. Both sell at the same per-gram gold rate.
Can I sell a damaged or bent cuff?
Yes. Physical condition does not affect gold purity. A bent cuff fetches the same per-gram rate as a perfect one.
How are stones removed from a stone-set cuff?
All stones are removed at the Attica branch before weighing. Payment is on gold weight only. Stones are returned.
What documents do I need?
Aadhaar is mandatory. PAN required if total sale exceeds ₹2,00,000.
Is there a minimum weight to sell?
No minimum weight.
Does engraving affect the gold weight?
Engraving removes a tiny amount of metal from the surface. This is negligible and does not affect the overall weighed gold value.
