What is a Gold Loan?
A gold loan is a secured short-term financing option where you pledge your gold jewelry, ornaments, or bullion as collateral to receive immediate cash. Unlike selling your gold, a gold loan allows you to retain ownership and reclaim your gold after repaying the loan amount. This makes it an ideal solution for emergency cash needs, medical expenses, business opportunities, or any urgent financial requirement without the hassle of lengthy documentation.

Types of Gold Accepted
Most gold loans accept a variety of gold forms with different purity levels. The higher the purity, the better the loan amount.

Common jewelry gold (91.6% purity)
Alloy gold (75% purity) - Lower value
Bars and coins of any purity
Gold Valuation & Loan-to-Value (LTV) Process
Your loan amount depends on the weight, purity, and current market value of your gold. Here's how it works:
📊 Valuation Steps
- Weight Check: Precise electronic weighing
- Purity Testing: Acid/electronic testing for gold %
- Market Rate: Current day's gold spot price
- Final Calculation: (Weight × Purity × Market Rate)
💰 LTV Ratio Example
- 100g 22K gold: ~₹5,00,000 market value
- At 75% LTV: ₹3,75,000 loan possible
- At 85% LTV: ₹4,25,000 loan possible
- Rates vary by lender: 70-85% LTV available
