Resale Formula & Worked Example

25g plain 22K kada: 25 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹3,49,225.

For a 40g kada: 40 × 0.916 × ₹15,250 = ₹5,58,760. Most kada sales at today’s rates will exceed ₹2,00,000 – Aadhaar and PAN are both required.

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

●      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 – do not apply

●      Lump-sum quote without per-gram rate – always ask for breakdown

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a gold kada worth today?

A plain 25g 22K kada is worth ₹3,49,225 today. A heavier 40g piece brings ₹5,58,760. Formula: Weight × 0.916 × ₹15,250.

What is the average weight of a gold kada?

Plain thin kadas start at 10g–18g. Standard kadas range 18g–35g. Heavy broad kadas weigh 35g–70g. Men’s kadas are generally heavier than women’s.

What is the difference between a kada and a bangle?

A bangle is a plain circular ring – thin and often worn in sets. A kada is a heavier, broader bracelet-style ornament worn singly or in pairs, often with engraving or deity motifs. Both sell at the same per-gram rate.

Is a gold kangan the same as a kada?

Yes – kangan and kada are regional terms for the same type of heavy gold bracelet. Kangan is the Hindi term widely used in North India; kada is used across India.

Can I sell a stone-set kada?

Yes. Stones are removed before weighing. Payment is on gold weight only. All removed stones are returned.

What documents do I need?

Aadhaar is mandatory. PAN required if total sale exceeds ₹2,00,000. Most kada sales at today’s rates will exceed this threshold.

Can I sell a single kada instead of a pair?

Yes. Attica Gold has no minimum quantity requirement. A single kada is bought at the full per-gram rate.
