₹1,000 referral; check the HUID first

Candere Referral Code

Q: What does the Candere referral pay?

₹1,000 when a referred friend shops, per our record. Our record does not state a minimum order, a cap, or when payment arrives, so establish all three before doing any work — on a jewellery purchase the qualifying threshold is likely to matter.

Q: What is a HUID?

Hallmark Unique Identification — a six-digit alphanumeric code that, since 31 March 2023, must appear on hallmarked gold jewellery and artefacts sold in India. It is unique to each individual piece, not to a batch or a design, and it is registered in the Bureau of Indian Standards national database where it links that piece to the jeweller, the hallmarking centre and the date.

Q: What marks should be on hallmarked gold?

Three. The BIS Standard Mark, which is the BIS logo; the purity, expressed in carat and fineness; and the six-digit HUID. A missing HUID on hallmarked gold sold after March 2023 is the thing to notice.

Q: Can I check the hallmark myself?

Yes, free, in about thirty seconds — and almost nobody does. The BIS Care app, available for Android and iOS, and the BIS website at bis.gov.in both let you enter a HUID and see what the database says about that piece. On a purchase worth tens of thousands of rupees that is not a meaningful cost, and it is the only step in a gold purchase that is entirely independent of the seller. Check that what it returns matches the piece in front of you, and check the purity mark matches what you are paying for, since 22K and 18K are different prices and different products.

Q: Does hallmarking tell me the price is fair?

No — hallmarking certifies purity, not price. The price of gold jewellery in India is normally built from the metal value plus making charges plus GST, and making charges vary enormously between sellers and between designs. They are where the negotiation happens, and they are frequently expressed as a percentage in a way that obscures the rupee amount. Ask for the breakdown in writing: the metal rate applied, the weight, making charges in rupees, any wastage charge, and tax. Two pieces of identical purity and weight can differ substantially in price entirely because of that middle line.

Q: What should I ask that people only think of later?

The buyback or exchange policy. Before buying, ask what the seller will pay if you sell the piece back and what they will allow if you exchange it — specifically whether making charges are refunded, which they usually are not, and whether the buyback rate is the prevailing gold rate or a discounted one. That policy is the difference between jewellery as an ornament and jewellery as a store of value, and it is much easier to ask about at the moment of purchase than years afterwards.

Q: Should ₹1,000 influence where my friend buys?

No. On a jewellery purchase it is a small fraction of the transaction. The HUID check, the purity mark, the making-charge breakdown and the buyback policy are each worth more than ₹1,000 to the person you refer — so send those with the link.

Candere pays ₹1,000 for a referral — but the 30-second HUID check on the jewellery is worth far more than that

Genie Says

Candere pays ₹1,000 when a referred friend shops, though our record states no minimum order, cap or payment timing. Far more valuable is a check that takes thirty seconds and costs nothing: since 31 March 2023, hallmarked gold jewellery sold in India must carry a six-digit alphanumeric HUID, unique to the individual piece and registered in the BIS national database where it links that object to the jeweller, hallmarking centre and date. Three marks must be present — the BIS Standard Mark, the purity in carat and fineness, and the HUID — and you can verify it yourself free on the BIS Care app or at bis.gov.in. Hallmarking certifies purity, not price, so get the making-charge breakdown in rupees and ask about buyback before buying.

**The offer, as our record states it: ₹1,000 for referring a friend who shops.** ⚠️ **Our record does not state a minimum order, a cap, or when payment arrives** — ✅ **establish all three before doing any work, since on a jewellery purchase the qualifying threshold is likely to matter.**

**✅ NOW THE THING WORTH FAR MORE THAN ₹1,000, WHICH APPLIES TO ANY GOLD BOUGHT IN INDIA.**

**⚠️⚠️ SINCE 31 MARCH 2023, IT HAS BEEN PROHIBITED TO SELL HALLMARKED GOLD JEWELLERY OR ARTEFACTS WITHOUT A 6-DIGIT ALPHANUMERIC HUID.**

**HUID stands for Hallmark Unique Identification.** ✅ **It is unique to each individual piece** — **not to a batch, not to a design, but to that object** — **and it is registered in the Bureau of Indian Standards national database, where it links the piece to THE JEWELLER, THE HALLMARKING CENTRE and THE DATE.**

**✅ THREE MARKS MUST APPEAR ON HALLMARKED GOLD JEWELLERY:**
**1. **The BIS Standard Mark** — the BIS logo.**
**2. **The purity**, expressed in carat and fineness.**
**3. **The six-digit HUID.**

**⚠️⚠️ AND HERE IS THE PART ALMOST NOBODY USES: YOU CAN VERIFY IT YOURSELF, FREE, IN ABOUT THIRTY SECONDS.**

✅ **The BIS Care app — available for Android and iOS — and the BIS website at bis.gov.in both let you enter a HUID and see what the database says about that piece.** ⚠️ **On a purchase worth tens of thousands of rupees, thirty seconds is not a meaningful cost**, ✅ **and it is the only step in a gold purchase that is entirely independent of the seller.**

**✅ SO THE ORDER OF OPERATIONS ON ANY GOLD PURCHASE:**
**1. ⚠️ CHECK ALL THREE MARKS ARE PRESENT.** **A missing HUID on hallmarked gold sold after March 2023 is the thing to notice.**
**2. ✅ VERIFY THE HUID IN THE BIS CARE APP** — **and check that what it returns matches the piece in front of you.**
**3. ⚠️ CHECK THE PURITY MARK MATCHES WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR.** **22K and 18K are different prices and different products, and the mark is the evidence.**

**⚠️ AND THE OTHER NUMBER THAT DECIDES WHAT YOU PAY, WHICH HALLMARKING SAYS NOTHING ABOUT.**

**Hallmarking certifies PURITY. It does not certify PRICE.** ✅ **The price of gold jewellery in India is normally built from the metal value plus MAKING CHARGES plus GST** — **and making charges vary enormously between sellers and between designs.** ⚠️ **They are where the negotiation happens, and they are frequently expressed as a percentage in a way that obscures the rupee amount.** ✅ **Ask for the breakdown in writing: metal rate applied, weight, making charges in rupees, any wastage charge, and tax.** **Two pieces of identical purity and weight can differ substantially in price entirely because of that middle line.**

**⚠️ AND ONE MORE QUESTION PEOPLE ONLY THINK ABOUT LATER: WHAT IS THE BUYBACK OR EXCHANGE POLICY?** ✅ **Ask, before buying, what the seller will pay if you sell the piece back and what they will allow if you exchange it** — **specifically whether making charges are refunded (usually not), and whether the buyback rate is the prevailing gold rate or a discounted one.** ⚠️ **That policy is the difference between jewellery as an ornament and jewellery as a store of value**, **and it is much easier to ask about at the moment of purchase than years afterwards.**

**✅ Finally, on the referral itself: ₹1,000 is a reasonable reward, and on a jewellery purchase it is a small fraction of the transaction.** ⚠️ **Do not let it decide where someone buys.** **The HUID check, the purity mark, the making-charge breakdown and the buyback policy are each worth more than ₹1,000 to the person you refer** — ✅ **so send those with the link.**
