Hidden way to buy gold at 55% valueback

When you buy Gold, you are charged 3% GST. When you sell Gold the jewelers reverse charge and deduct the GST amount to you in case you take payment in cheque, cash sale is a different story but that is irrelevant as I suppose everyone is getting a return back into their bank accounts.
Just went to nearby jeweler and he said that he will give 12000 for 24K 2grams coin. Currently 2grams gold bar from Bangalore refinery is going at 13135 on Amazon.
So loss of 1135 on 2 grams.
 
Its not a loss. You should calculate points earned and then see it against it
Yes, in terms of points it's very beneficial.
Even if bought from 5X ASV, and transferring points to airlines and redeeming it internationally (which has lowest redemption value), there is a gain.
 
I have no experience selling gold coins. I've just accumulated coins so far. If I were to liquidate it, what is the best way? Jewellers are happy to buy it at spot price provided you buy/exchange it for jewellery from them.

Are you sure? I thought the reverse charge mechanism was only for service-related GST transactions.
