Gold Bar Pendant: Weight, Today’s Rate & Resale Value

A gold bar pendant is a modern minimalist pendant shaped like a thin horizontal or vertical rectangular bar — one of the most popular contemporary jewellery styles. Also called a lariat-style or station pendant, bar pendants are popular for both daily wear and as name/coordinates engraving pieces.

At resale, only gold weight and purity determine cash value. Engraving and personalisation add no premium.

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
