Dhan, one of the leading broking firms, has launched ‘Gold Vault’ which allows retail investors to buy gold and silver in different denominations as traded on MCX (starting from 1 gram) at the market discovered price.

Instead of paying a fraction for open position in derivatives trading on MCX, investors can pay the cost of gold purchased and lock-in the prices. The amount of gold purchased will reflect in the investors app.

On expiry of derivatives contract, investors can trigger for gold delivery and it will be delivered to the buyers address. MCX currently has live contracts that expires on June 5, August 5, October 5 and December 4.

Jayprakash Gupta, founder, Dhan said currently digital gold products available in market carry high risk as they are not regulated by anyone, but Gold Vault launched by Dhan is truly a digital gold with a transparent pricing and highly regulated by Sebi.

Investors get assurance on gold purity, transparent pricing and door delivery, a convenience unmatched, he added.

Though there are additional cost involved by way of trading fee (₹20 per order), vaulting, insurance and transportation charges, Dhan claims that it will cheaper by 3-4 per cent compared to buying gold from leading jewellers and banks.

Buyers cannot sell the gold back on the exchange platform without a GST number. However, gold purchased from MCX will be accepted at all leading jewellers at the prevailing market rate.

Gold contracts are available in 1 kg (1000 grams), 100 grams, 10 grams, 8 grams and 1 gram. Similarly silver contracts are available in 30 kg, 5 kg and one kg.

Investors can buy even one gram of gold every month and store it vault and call for delivery whenever they need, he said.

Praveena Rai, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, MCX said the app makes gold investing more transparent, accessible and secure for investors across India.

By combining exchange-led liquidity and price discovery with regulated infrastructure, investors can now invest in gold via futures with confidence, backed by transparent pricing, settlement, secure vaulting and seamless delivery,” she said.
