Hallmarking
Gold jewellery and other articles satisfying Bureau of Indian Standards guidelines for manufacture of Gold jewellery as per IS-1417:1999, are segregated into lots based on information provided by the client.


Few of the selected pieces are scraped from appropriate locations based on design/manufacturing criteria. The scrapped gold is then accurately weighed on precision balance (0.002mg accuracy) and then undergo fire assaying as per the required Indian standards specification as per IS-1418:1999. Once the fineness of the samples is found as per requirement, the representative jewellery lot undergoes hallmarking.
