@R_N_Vaghani Same for both rural and urban areas?

@UnculturedTrade yes isme rural urban jaisa kuchh nahi hai sabke liye same

@R_N_Vaghani Getting salary income only . Paid tax . Bought using white money, have receipt of all the holdings - can I keep more than 100gm?

@suvendu_owner yes obviously, you can hold any amount of gold with valid documentc

@R_N_Vaghani What about jewelry studded with diamond? No clarity by the department. Let me clear if jewelry is not kept with identification mark of specific person it is very difficult to get it clear from 1st stage itself

@R_N_Vaghani Quick fact-check: these aren’t legal “holding limits.” They’re CBDT non-seizure thresholds during raids—500g (married), 250g (unmarried), 100g (male). Unexplained extra can still face tax—keep invoices/wealth disclosure

@R_N_Vaghani These are non-seizable limits during raids. They are not taxation limits or ownership caps — you can hold more gold if you can explain its source (e.g. inheritance, purchase with declared income, gifts, etc.).

@R_N_Vaghani Stree dhan cannot be touched ! Many parents pass on gold to the next generation

@R_N_Vaghani Acha huya subjected to area, community, age sub clause me nhi dala

@R_N_Vaghani But source toh batana padega

@R_N_Vaghani Any official Income tax notification highlighting this facts ?

@R_N_Vaghani Is this applicable for our demate account ? How much gold and silver I can buy in my demat account?

@R_N_Vaghani Does this apply to physical gold only?

@R_N_Vaghani This is inform of jewellery or baar , as it not clear

@R_N_Vaghani Act forgets to add the limits for corrupt IAS officers who amassed gold more than this Income Tax is unfair by not giving them this choice

@R_N_Vaghani Atleast cite notification/order number and year

@R_N_Vaghani The above limit excludes bullion just to clarify

@R_N_Vaghani Generational gold?

@R_N_Vaghani Equality when?

@R_N_Vaghani Partially incorrect. The limits are only for exemption from seizure. If gold is unexplained, it will be added as income. The limit doesnt mean you dont have to explain it. If the social stature of the assessee is such that he cant afford even 50g, it'll be treated as unexplained

@R_N_Vaghani This is through departmental instructions which are subject to one rider age and status of the subject though in practice applied as rule of thumb

@R_N_Vaghani Me with 0.5gm reading and bookmarking this.

@R_N_Vaghani The protection is against seizure only
