When you need cash quickly, it's tempting to walk into the first shop that says "we buy gold." A short checklist before you go can be the difference between a fair sale and an underpaid one.

Before You Leave Home

  • Check today's approximate gold rate online so you have a rough benchmark in mind.
  • Carry your Aadhaar card and, if you have it, the original purchase bill for your jewellery.
  • Weigh your gold at home if you have a scale, so you can cross-check the buyer's reading.

At the Counter

  • Ask to see the purity test performed in front of you — a genuine buyer won't hesitate.
  • Ask what rate is being used, and whether it matches the live market rate for that karat.
  • Get the final calculation broken down: weight × purity-adjusted rate = payout, with no unexplained subtractions.

Cash vs. Digital Payment

Instant cash is convenient, but a UPI or bank transfer leaves a clear digital trail and receipt — useful if you ever need to reference the transaction later. A trustworthy buyer will offer both and let you choose.

Don't Rush the First Offer

If time allows, a quick call to compare two buyers' quoted rates for the same purity can highlight whether one is quoting fairly. A buyer confident in their pricing won't discourage you from asking questions or comparing.
