Methodology of Determining the LTV Ratio

The ornaments are collected in a designated tray provided for the purpose. A visual inspection is conducted for damage, hallmarks, or special markings. The type of ornament is recorded and the gross weight is checked.

The net weight is determined after proportionate deductions for thread work, enamel work, wax filling, soldering, dirt, etc. Items where the stone weight is less than 50% of total weight and broken items are not accepted.

Further, the purity of the ornament is checked through a variety of testing methods. Post the determination of the net weight of gold and its purity, the loan amount is calculated based on these two values.

Predominantly, the LTV ratio on the loan is 75%. This means that the loan amount will be equivalent to 75% of the gold value of the ornament.
