Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: Flat 5% Making Charges on Gold Jewellery
By Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh | Trusted Since 1965
Walk down Bank Street and you’ll hear the same gold rate quoted in almost every shop. Then the bill arrives — and the numbers don’t match. Most of the time, the gap isn’t the gold. It’s the making charge.
We’ve been on this street since 1965. Families who buy from us usually ask one thing first: “Making kitna lagega?” Our answer hasn’t changed in a long time — flat 5% of the gold value.
Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: What Actually Makes Up Your Bill
A clear gold bill should show three things you can check yourself:
- Gold value — weight × today’s rate
- Making — at our shop, flat 5% of that gold value
- GST — 3% on gold + making
If a shop can’t explain those lines in plain language, take a minute before you pay. You’re buying jewellery for years, not for the next five minutes at the counter.
Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: Why Making Charges Move the Needle
Gold rate is public. Making is where shops differ. Around Karol Bagh you’ll hear making anywhere from a modest percentage to much higher figures on bridal and heavy work.
We keep ours flat at 5% — light chain or bridal set. Same rule. That way you can estimate the bill before you walk in, and you aren’t surprised when the invoice is printed.
Want to run the numbers yourself? Use our making charges calculator — it defaults to our 5%.
Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: A Simple Side-by-Side
Take 10 grams at a day when gold is around ₹6,500 per gram (₹65,000 for 10g). The gold value is the same wherever you go. The making isn’t.
- At 15% making: about ₹9,750 making → roughly ₹74,750 before GST
- At our 5% making: ₹3,250 making → ₹68,250 before GST
That’s a few thousand rupees on one piece — before you even look at GST. On bridal weight, the difference grows quickly. Rates change every day; the habit of asking “making kitna percent?” doesn’t.
Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: What You’ll See on Our Invoice
Every gold piece we sell is BIS hallmarked 22kt. The bill shows:
- Weight
- Gold rate of the day
- Making at flat 5%
- GST at 3%
No extra mystery lines. If something isn’t clear, ask — we’ll walk you through it at the counter the same way we do for families who’ve been coming here for years.
Dhirsons Jewellers Karol Bagh: Diamonds, Bridal and Everyday Gold
Pricing talk often starts with gold making, but people also come for certified diamond jewellery and bridal sets. We keep diamond pricing straightforward too — no inflated “showroom only” story. For bridal work, you can browse bridal sets, 22kt gold, diamonds, and Polki & Kundan on the site, then try pieces on Bank Street.
