| Verification by the Buyer at the time of release of delivery |
At the time of taking delivery, the buyer can check delivery in front of Muthoot personnel. If buyer is satisfied with the quantity, weight and quality of the material, buyer will hand over the receipt to Muthoot personnel. If not satisfied, he can request for assaying by any of the approved assayers available at that center. If the buyer chooses for assaying, Muthoot person will carry the goods to the assayer’s facilities, get it assayed and bring it back to Muthoot facilities along with assayer’s certificate. If the assayer’s certificate differs from the certificate submitted by the seller in respect of quality or weight materially, then the buyer and seller have to mutually negotiate the final settlement proceeds within 1 day from receipt of assayer’s report. However if they do not agree on any mutually acceptable amount arising due to difference in quality or weight within 1 day, then the Exchange will send the goods to a second assayer and in that case, the report received from such assayer will be final and binding on both buyer and seller. The cost of first assaying as well as cost of transportation from Muthoot to assayer’s facilities to and fro will be borne by the buyer, while the cost of second assaying, if any, will be equally divided between the buyer and seller. The vault charges during such period of first and second assaying, if any, will be borne by both the buyers and sellers equally. If the buyer does not opt for assaying at the time of lifting delivery, then he will not have any further recourse to challenge the quantity, weight or quality subsequently and it will be assumed that he has received the quantity, weight and quality as per the bill made by the seller.

Introduction 
For centuries, gold has meant wealth, prestige, and power, and its rarity and natural beauty have made it precious to men and women alike. Owing gold has long been a bulwark against disaster. Many times when paper money has failed, men have turned to gold as the one true source of monetary wealth.
Today is no different. While there have been fluctuations in every market and decided downturns in some, the expectation in that gold will hold its own. There is a limited amount of gold in the world, so investing in gold is still a good way to plan for the future.
