Gold Promise Ring: Weight, Today’s Rate & Resale Value
A promise ring symbolises a couple’s commitment, often given before an engagement ring as a token of devotion. Promise rings are typically simpler and lighter than engagement rings, ranging from thin plain bands to designs with a small accent stone.
At resale, only gold weight and purity determine cash value. Any accent stone is removed and handled separately.

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
