How to Choose a Trustworthy Jeweller in Tamenglong North
Three checks before walking into any showroom
Verify BIS Hallmark Licence
Every legitimate jeweller in Tamenglong North selling gold must hold an active BIS hallmarking licence (BIS-HUID). Confirm before purchase:
- →Ask for the BIS licence number — should match the bill
- →Look for the BIS triangle logo + HUID on every piece
- →Cross-check on the BIS Care app — fake licences will fail validation
Compare Making Charges
Making charges are the biggest hidden variable. Across Manipur, expect 11–17% — a 5% gap on a ₹50,000 piece is ₹2,500. Get quotes from at least 3 jewellers and ask:
- →Is making charge a fixed % or per-gram rate?
- →Different rate for handcrafted vs machine-made?
- →Any wastage charge added on top? (deal-breaker if yes)
- →Are stones billed by weight or per-piece?
Check Buy-Back & Exchange Policy
Most gold purchases will eventually be exchanged or sold back. Tamenglong North jewellers vary widely on terms — read the fine print before buying:
- →Buy-back rate: today's gold rate, or yesterday's?
- →Wastage deduction on buy-back? (usually 2–8%)
- →Exchange terms — full value of old gold, or partial?
- →Is the policy in writing on your bill or just verbal?
Verbal commitments aren't legally binding — insist on written terms.
