Gold Gajra | Wrist Ornament Weight & Resale Value India

The gold gajra is a traditional Indian wrist ornament designed to resemble a flower garland (gajra) worn around the wrist. It is a popular bridal accessory across Maharashtra, Rajasthan and North India, typically gifted at weddings. A gold gajra generally weighs 8g–25g depending on the number of flower units and the design complexity.

At resale, the floral design adds no value – only the gold weight and purity determine what you receive.

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
