Online Gold Purchase Plan

Two doubts, sry if silly
If we accumulated 110000 at the end of 11 months and if we buy for 90k worth jewellery, will they refund remaining money?

What is upto 14% making charges? Making charges are decided based on the amount of gold in that jewelry? Its not some fixed charge?
Suppose if making charges are 20%,we have to pay only 6%?
1) No you have to buy for complete amount or more than that. They won't refund any remaining money. But here we can buy n-number of items (ornaments). No hard rule that you have to buy only one.

2) You are correct. 14% fixed making charges will get reduced.

Making charges is how they profit. It varies brands to brands. For instance, you might've heard tanishq is very expensive, that's because their making charges are absurd way higher than other brands.

Let's say you bought X gm of gold pendant and it's making charges are 25% so, you will pay only 11% charge as you got 14% off (due to your gold plan)

Only GST, gold price are fixed whereas making charges vary according to shops. That's the variable part and brands can put whatever they want.

Hows the gst calculated? For gold or making charges or combined?

Unfortunately combined :/

Example: you bought gold worth 20000, it had 15% making charges so 20000+3000 (20000 × 15% => 3000)

So, now your total comes 23000

Now, GST (3%) will be applied => which makes it ₹23690/-

Say making charges 21%, through gold plan we got 14% waiver.
We need to gst for gold+7%making charges only right?

Yes. 6% for the amount you have accumulated and 20% for the excess amount

No they won't refund , you have to purchase for the full amount invested.

Yes if you buy any jewellery with 20% making charge , you just need to pay 6%. So it's advisable to buy only jewellery at 14% and higher when you invest in the scheme to make it worth for you.
