Malabar Gold New Scheme Launched

This is a chit fund scheme only. As stipulated by RBI, all chit schemes should not have more than 11 months. This is being adopted in all jewellery monthly scheme . You may be a customer or employee of Malabar and it doesn't restrict me to give my views on such schemes. Anyway, you will get back upto 5 lakhs in bank if it is late also. In case of such schemes, you will get nothing and you loose all your hard earned money
It's not the usual kind of chit fund that goes bust . There is a difference.

You know what I love ? Telling a dude who actually has been doing something for more than a decade , that he has no idea of the risks involved or what actually happens in the background. The audacity. Giving your view isn't wrong but saying " I will get nothing and actually lose money" while I've been doing this for a decade + , including my family members, while making considerable profit , is just pure arrogance from your side.

I have practical experience and expertise in this scenario. You have theoretical.

There is risk in everything. That's why folks stick to reputed brands with global reach .

Your views of whether something is good or bad can never supercede a person's actual experience dealing with the scenario .

I literally redeemed a matured scheme yesterday, getting 23 grams of gold at 7250+ average rate , and paid only 6% making charge + gst. It was 3 items, with making charges of 11%, 14% and 20%. Since the scheme wajves till 14% , I paid only 6% extra. This is literally yesterday.

Been doing this for years. Warning someone that there is risk involved is good , agreed. There is risk in everything. But making blanket statements without knowing the reality is wrong.

If you don't want to invest in gold schemes cause you are scared of getting cheated , you have two options :

1. Don't invest. That's it.

2. Use folks like me as example , and invest in the one me or sparkit invests in. You have examples of proven track record which you can use for reference. We don't invest in small time shops. We invest at reputed well established brands that have global reach. Thats how you reduce your risk .

Blindly instead causing fear mongering is not the way to do things.

Better go for Lalitha jewellery
Zero wastage and making charges for 11 months scheme and also same applicable for gold deposit scheme for 11 months.
No limit like upto 18%
I dint like the designs, plus they don't have too much exposure outside south india. Also, Malabar's Golden Glow is perfect for me. For years now. I'm just following the " If something ain't broke, don't fix it " logic thats it. Plus being a regular customer has its perks. Especially one with a seriously long history.

I checked their old gold scheme and it looks good on paper actually. Good suggestion, hopefully it helps someone !

Except Malabar, all are bad for you. Cannot explain to such people. You are also timid by putting dislike for my post using your moderator power. Shame on you I don't know how you became a moderator with such a bias mentality .STOP

Wait I'm a moderator ? Since when ?

I like malabar and I'm comfortable with it. I dint say others are bad. I clearly mentioned why I don't prefer Lalitha , nowhere did I say malabar is better for everyone. It's a personal choice. My last paragraph clearly specifies it's a good scheme and hopefully helps someone else .

It's my choice which jewellery I prefer. Any rule that I need to buy from other jewellers also ?

Malabar have better designs and collections compared to Lalitha. This is what me and few others I knew think. But indeed, it’s a great scheme.
