(ii) Wherever the purity of the item of export is expressed in terms of fineness, the quantity of gold/silver/platinum shall be multiplied by the fineness of gold/silver/platinum exported and thereafter divided by 0.995/0.999/0.900 to arrive at the equivalent quantity of gold/ silver/platinum in terms of 0.995/0.999/ 0.900 fineness respectively.’.
