In this busy market, it is very hard to find a real and honest shop. But today I will take you to a place where you get a full guarantee of purity.
We are talking about Bansals & Sons.
If you are thinking of buying gold, then these tips will be very useful when you go to buy gold with your family.
1. What is Making Charge?
Many people think:
“Why is the making charge different in every shop?”
The shop owner, Mr. Rishabh Bansal, explained this very simply.
Just like every tailor takes different money for stitching clothes, in the same way, different jewellery designs need different hard work.
- Here, making charge starts from only 2.9%.
- Machine-made designs cost less.
- Hand-made fine designs cost a little more.
- But purity is the same in every piece.
2. HUID Hallmark: How to पहचान real gold
Today, cheating is common. So the government made the HUID system.
- Every jewellery has a 6-digit code on the back.
- You can put this code in an app and check if the gold is real or not.
At Bansals & Sons, every customer checks the gold themselves, so there is no tension later.
3. Light weight but heavy looking jewellery
Today gold is very expensive. So here they make jewellery that is:
- Light in weight
- But looks heavy and very beautiful
Some examples:
- Rings: For girls and boys, rings start from 3–4 grams.
- Lightweight sets: Full necklace set in only 7 grams, good for gifts.
- Gents kada and chains: Very nice collection of Bahubali chains and Italian chains.
4. Free Insurance and Proper Bill
The best thing is:
- You get free insurance with the jewellery.
- You also get a proper bill, which you can use anywhere in the future.
This means your gold is safe.
⚠️ Warning: Stay away from middlemen!
When you walk in Chandni Chowk, some people will stop you and say:
“Come brother, I will take you to a cheap shop.”
These are middlemen. Stay away from them.
- Always call the shop directly.
- They have 6 stores in Kucha Mahajani. Go only there.
My Opinion
If you want to buy something for your mother or sister, you should visit this place once.
Because there is a big difference between:
- Seeing jewellery in photos
- And wearing it in your hands and seeing it in real life.
