Frequently Asked Questions
Why is 1 Tola equal to 11.66 grams and not 10 grams?
The Tola originated from the weight of a silver rupee coin during the Mughal and British eras. It was standardised at 180 grains, which equals exactly 11.6638038 grams (rounded to 11.664). The 10‑gram Tola is an informal simplification used by some local jewellers for quick mental math; always insist on the exact 11.664g standard for accurate pricing.
How many Ratti are in 1 Gram?
1 Ratti = 0.1215 grams, so 1 Gram ≈ 8.23 Ratti. In traditional Indian goldsmithing, 8 Ratti = 1 Masha, and 12 Masha = 1 Tola. This tool handles all these inter‑conversions automatically.
Can I calculate the value of gold biscuits or coins with this tool?
Yes. Gold biscuits are often sold in Tola (1 Tola, 5 Tola, 10 Tola) or Gram (10g, 20g, 50g, 100g). Enter the weight, select the unit, and input today's gold rate per gram to see the approximate market value.
