        Police took seized our bank locker keys and there was jewellery in that locker because there’s a Corruption case goingagainst my father from 2014. So it was gifted to my mom during her wedding by her father. Due to family problems my mother cut contacts with her father as he was abusive otherwise we would have a written affidavit by her father that it was a wedding gift.

        Now we don’t have any proofs that we have this jewellery as a gift to my mother during her wedding, no bill, no receipt etc

        So how to prove our jewellery wasn’t bought using black money?

          Is Gold more than 1kg?

          Legally a family with 1 daughter allowed upto 1.1KG gold without receipt.
