The quantity of gold you receive when purchasing through Jar is calculated based on the current market price of gold per gram. Here’s how it works:
- Determine the amount to invest: Decide how much money you want to spend on purchasing digital gold.
- Calculate the gold value: The app calculates how much of your investment goes towards purchasing gold after deducting any applicable fees (like GST).
- Determine the gold price per gram: The current gold price per gram is then used to calculate the quantity of gold you’ll receive.
- Calculate the quantity of gold: The quantity of gold is calculated by dividing the amount spent (after GST) by the current gold price per gram.
For example, if you invest βΉ100 and the gold price per gram is βΉ6,000:
- GST (3%) on βΉ100 is βΉ3.
- Net amount spent on gold = βΉ100 – βΉ3 = βΉ97.
- Gold quantity = βΉ97 / βΉ6,000 = 0.0162 grams.
This calculation ensures transparency, allowing users to know exactly how much gold they are purchasing with their investment.
