Nagpur: Jewelry in the city held a Daylong token strike on Monday against the Unique ID (HUID) Hall Marking, the latest norm introduced by the Indian Standard Bureau (BIS), an agent under the Ministry of Consumer Affairs.
The strike in Nagpur is part of the national agitation against Huid, and the traders here claim to have received a full response to the call.
“All shops, except for one corporate chain, are closed,” said Rajesh Rokde, Secretary of the Nagpur Sarafa Association.
Even when traders are afraid that Huid will lead to Inspector Raj, BIS officials say it brings a very easy system for consumers.
It will also cause effective gold supply tracking.
Huid is a system to get a characteristic and unique ID for any individual ornaments at any outlet.
Before this, Hallmarking will be done for large amounts of gold, in terms of weight.
Hallmark applies to all ornaments made from the quantity provided.
Under the new system, jewelry must submit a rent for each ornament on the bus portal.
The typical center will be allocated based on the token number produced on the bus portal.
The first stage will check the battery material.
Suppose the weight of the necklace turns out 28 grams instead of 30 grams as mentioned by the outlet, the piece will be returned in the first stage itself.
Jewelry can accept that it weighs less and applies it back.
If the part passes through a heavy test, it is inserted into the XRF engine.
This is the initial purity test.
Only at passing the xrf stage pieces can be taken for the final or returned test.
Finally, gold was put into a fire test test, which was the final stage.
During the entire unique ID process each and each ornament will be produced.
With ID, certain ornamental movements can be traced to the end of the consumer.
This means the BIS portal will also have detailed buyers along with the seller.
If a consumer finds a shortcomings, complaints can be submitted by bus based on unique IDs.
The source says this can be an effective way to track the movement of ornaments to the last tip.
This can also help curb unsold sales in the end.
For this, jewelry said they were not aware of the tracking system but violated with the time taken in the typical centers.
Because every jewelry was alleged, he took no less than 10 days to complete the work, holding a stock in the trade until then.
“It’s also not a bus job to track the gold movement.
For this reason, the tax enforcement agency is there,” Rokde said.
