The Goods and Servies Tax (GST) was introduced in 2017. The GST on the value of gold is 3%, and the GST on the making charges of gold jewellery is 5%.
Three types of import duties are applicable on gold imports to India - Custom Duty (12.5%), Agriculture and Infra Tax (2.5%), and Social Welfare Surcharge (10% of Custom Duty). Total import duty (excluding GST) is therefore around 15% (12.5 +2.5) + a minimal Social Welfare Surcharge of 10% of Custom Duty (not the gold price).
There are many investment options for gold available in Ulhasnagar. Some of the popular investment options are as follows:
1. Gold Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs): A gold ETF aims to track the domestic gold price. These funds are passive investment instruments that are based on gold prices and invest in gold bullion. In short, gold ETFs are units representing physical gold in paper or dematerialised form.
2. Gold Jewellery: Gold jewellery is a popular investment option in Ulhasnagar. You can buy gold jewellery from jewellers or online retailers. When buying gold jewellery, it is essential to consider the purity of the gold and the making charges.
3. Gold Coins and Bars: If an investment is your purpose for buying gold, you can buy gold coins and bars instead of jewellery. You can purchase these items from banks, bullion dealers and online retailers.

Gold Mutual Funds: A gold mutual fund is an open-ended investment vehicle that invests in the stock of businesses engaged in the production or mining of gold, as well as in gold bullion and the gold futures market. A professional fund manager manages the fund, and the fund's price is based on the spot price of gold.

22-karat gold is also referred to as 916 gold. The number '916' is used to denote the purity of gold, i.e., 91.6%. It means that 91.6 grams of pure gold are present in 100 grams of a gold alloy, which also contains trace amounts of silver, zinc and copper.
Although 24-karat gold is the purest form of gold available (99.9% purity), it is too soft and malleable to be moulded into intricate jewellery designs. Thus, 22-karat gold is the preferred choice for making and purchasing gold jewellery.
Also, since 916 gold has a lower purity level than 24K gold, it is cheaper compared to 24K gold articles.
