How it's calculated
- Remove tax from the total:
Price before tax = Total ÷ (1 + Tax%) - Find the gold value:
Gold value = Weight × Gold rate - Whatever is left is making:
Making = Price before tax − Gold value − Stone charges
Use the rate the shop applied on your bill date, for the same karat as your jewellery. If you only know the 24K rate, tick the box and it will be converted by purity (22K = 91.6%, 21K = 87.5%, 18K = 75%). Shops sometimes add wastage, hallmarking or rounding, and that all shows up here as making.
