The festival of Dhanteras is celebrated on the Trayodashi of Shukla Paksha of Kartik month, two days before Diwali (Laxmi Pujan). This day has its own belief in which buying something and bringing it home is one. On this day people buy gold and silver according to their capacity and many people also bring utensils to their homes. Buying gold and silver on this day is considered auspicious. That is why people buy it, but if you are also planning to buy gold this Dhanteras, then you should keep some things in mind. Otherwise, you can also be cheated. So let's know what things should be kept in mind while buying gold on Dhanteras...
Keep these things in mind:-
Avoid buying gold online.
If you are also planning to buy gold on this Dhanteras, then you can avoid buying gold online. There are many fake apps in the market where the app claim that you can buy gold digitally, but they take payment from you but do not give gold. At the same time, many apps are completely fake which can cheat you. So be careful of them because this happens a lot during the festive season and if you are buying gold digitally, then buy it from a trusted app only.
Check before reading any email or message.
On the occasion of Dhanteras, fraudsters send emails or messages to cheat people in which they are given many offers related to gold but know that these can be fake. Never click on them or else they can hack your mobile.
Look for hallmark
When you are buying gold from a shop, keep in mind that you must look for the hallmark mark on it. Never buy gold that does not have a hallmark mark because such gold can be fake. Therefore, while buying gold, definitely look for the hallmark mark.
Do not forget to take the bill.
If you are buying gold on Dhanteras, then do not forget to take its proper bill. Suppose you buy gold now and sometime in the future you have to sell it, then you need a proper bill at that time. So take it carefully, otherwise, you may face problems later.
