Resale Formula & Worked Example
The resale formula is: Weight (g) × Purity (%) × Today’s 24K IBJA Rate. For 15g of 22K: 15 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹2,09,535.
For 8g of 18K: 8 × 0.75 × ₹15,250 = ₹91,500. Any buyer paying below this formula (without a disclosed, documented deduction) is underpaying. Attica Gold operates at the IBJA rate across all 200+ branches.
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
● Buyer quoting yesterday’s rate instead of today’s IBJA fix – verify before visiting
