The government has decided hall-marking of gold jewellery & artefacts will be mandatory with full effect from June 1, 2021. "From June 1, 2021, it is compulsory for all the jewellers selling the gold jewellery and artefacts to register with BIS & sell only hallmarked gold jewellery & artefacts in three grades of 14, 18 and 22 carat gold," stated by Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in a notification given to Jewellers. This is to protect the consumer interest and is beneficial for jeweller also as it helps to keep a check on supplier quality and projects as a quality conscious Jeweller, said by BIS in the notification. The BIS hallmarking scheme consists of a grant of registration to jewellers and recognition to Assaying &Hallmarking (A&H).
