Over 40 crore gold jewellery items have been hallmarked with a unique HUID, ensuring greater trust and transparency for the consumers in the market.

The Bureau of Indian Standards began fourth phase of mandatory hallmarking under the Hallmarking of Gold Jewellery and Gold Artefacts Amendment Order, 2024 from November 5, 2024.

Additionally, during the fourth phase, 18 additional districts where hallmarking centres have been set up under Mandatory Hallmarking. Following the implementation of the fourth stage, the total number of districts covered under Mandatory Hallmarking now stands at 361.

BIS earlier implemented the first phase of mandatory hallmarking, which was launched on June 23, 2021. This phase covered 256 districts whereas the second phase commenced from April 4, 2022 where 32 districts were further added. This was followed by the third phase which was implemented from 6th September, 2023 and covered 55 newly added districts.

It is a notable achievement that the proactive measure by Government of India has triggered over 4 lakh gold items being hallmarked with a unique HUID (Hallmark Unique Identification) number per day.

Since the launch of Mandatory Hallmarking, the number of registered jewellers has increased from 34,647 to 1,94,039—a remarkable increase of more than five times. Similarly, the number of Assaying and Hallmarking Centers (AHCs) has grown from 945 to 1,622.

BIS CARE- The official mobile application of BIS has the provision for the common consumers to verify the authenticity of hallmarked gold jewellery items bearing a HUID number.

If a consumer has the HUID of a gold article, he/she can access all kinds of information on the app, such as:

The jeweller’s registration number.

Assaying and Hallmarking Centre (AHC) details, including the AHC recognition number and address.

Article Type (such as rings, necklaces, coins, etc.)

Date of hallmarking when the jewellery was tested and marked.

Purity of the metal (gold, silver, etc.)

The BIS Care App also enables consumers to file complaints about product quality, misuse of BIS quality marks, and deceptive advertisements. The app can be easily downloaded from the play store.
