Hallmarking in simple terms is a quality assurance certification that guarantees the purity of gold. In India the system is BIS Hallmark which certifies that the piece of jewellery adheres to a set of standards laid by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The hallmarking is done at the BIS Authorized Labs where the gold in every piece is individually tested for its purity and if found correct, a mark is put on it by laser machine.

The BIS Hallmark for gold jewellery consists of the following components-
The BIS logo, a three digit number (out of a set of four pre-defined values) indicating the purity of the gold in part-per-thousand-format, logo of the assaying centre.
