Gold Eternity Ring: Weight, Today’s Rate & Resale Value

Gold Eternity Ring: Weight, Today’s Rate & Resale Value

A gold eternity ring features a continuous row of identically set gemstones (usually diamonds) running around the entire band (full eternity) or halfway around (half eternity). Eternity rings are typically gifted as anniversary rings.

At resale, the gold band and the diamonds are valued separately – the gold by weight and purity, the diamonds by certification.

Designs & Weight Comparison

Common Types & Use Cases

·       Half eternity ring – diamonds halfway, 2g–5g gold

·       Full eternity ring – diamonds all around, 4g–10g gold

·       Diamond eternity ring – gold band paid, diamonds separately

·       Coloured stone eternity – rubies/sapphires, same gold rate

·       18K white gold eternity – valued at 18K rate (0.75 purity)

Resale Value & Worked Example

The gold band is weighed after diamonds are removed. For a 4g 22K band: 4 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹55,876. For a 7g full eternity 18K band: ₹80,062.

Diamonds need separate GIA/IGI certificate-based valuation at a diamond specialist.

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

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a gold eternity ring worth at a gold buyer?

The gold band: a 4g 22K band is worth ₹55,876. A 7g 18K band is worth ₹80,062. Diamonds require separate valuation.

Are diamonds in an eternity ring paid at a gold buyer?

No. A gold buyer pays only for the gold band. Diamonds are removed and returned.

Is an eternity ring usually 18K or 22K?

Most eternity rings use 18K gold for durability to hold diamond settings. Some Indian eternity rings use 22K.

How are diamonds removed from an eternity ring?

At the branch, diamonds are removed from each setting and returned to you as loose stones.

What documents?

Aadhaar mandatory. Most eternity rings below ₹2L PAN threshold.

Can I sell just the gold band?

Yes. Diamonds returned; you receive the gold weight × purity rate.

Is a half eternity ring worth more than a full?

The gold band weight is what matters. A full eternity ring has more gold (running all around), so may yield slightly more for the gold portion.
