High-value and relationship-driven, these dues usually settle on a formal notice with a clear metal and cash statement. Section 138 covers bounced cheques, and a summary suit the rest; arbitration through trade associations is sometimes quicker.
Gold jewellery and bullion trade in Jaipur
Jaipur’s exporters of jewellery, textiles and handicrafts in Sitapura, Sanganer and Johri Bazaar often carry dues from buyers in Delhi, Mumbai and abroad, and marble and stone suppliers in Kishangarh sell to builders on open credit. Export invoices need a different approach from domestic ones; domestic buyers can be pursued through notice, Samadhaan and suits in Rajasthan.
Credit against the day’s gold rate or on metal account, settled in gold or cash weeks or months later; cheques are common.
Proof to collect
Typically invoices and delivery notes with weight and purity, metal account statements, rate confirmations and cheques.
- Avoid: metal account with no periodic confirmation
- Avoid: rate disputes with nothing in writing
- Avoid: goods released against promises before cheque clearance
