Frequently Asked Questions

What is today's gold rate in Kollam, Kerala?
Today's gold rate in Kollam is updated daily on this page. We display both 22 Karat (916 purity) and 24 Karat (999 purity) prices per gram and per pavan (8 grams), sourced directly from the Kerala Gold & Silver Merchants Association board rate.
Where are the best places to buy gold in Kollam?
Chinnakada commercial area is Kollam's main retail hub — major showrooms from Kalyan, Malabar Gold, and Bhima are concentrated here. Parameswar Temple Road has older, traditional jewellers known for heavy bridal sets in classic South Kerala style. Ashtamudickal and the area near Kollam beach road have mid-range outlets. Kollam's port and cashew-industry history made it one of Kerala's earliest gold-trading centres, and family jewellers in Chinnakada carry designs not commonly found in newer showrooms.
When is the best time to buy gold in Kollam?
Attukal Pongala (Feb-Mar) — one of the world's largest women's religious gatherings, drawing millions to Thiruvananthapuram — sees Kollam buyers make post-festival gold purchases in large numbers. Onam (Aug-Sep) and the Hindu wedding season (Nov-Jan) are the main annual peaks. Cashew export season (Mar-May) brings surplus liquidity that traditionally flows into gold investment. Akshaya Tritiya (Apr-May) is increasingly observed by both Hindu and Christian communities here.
How often are gold rates updated in Kollam?
Gold rates on this site for Kollam are updated daily at 10:15 AM IST, Monday through Saturday. Gold markets in Kerala are closed on Sundays.
What is the difference between 22K and 24K gold?
24 Karat gold is 99.9% pure gold and is softer, typically used for gold coins and bars. 22 Karat gold is 91.6% pure gold mixed with other metals for durability, making it the standard for jewelry in Kerala.
What is a pavan (sovereign) of gold?
In Kerala, a pavan (also called sovereign) is a traditional unit of gold measurement equal to 8 grams. It is the most common unit used when buying gold jewelry in showrooms across Kerala.
What factors influence gold prices in Kollam?
Gold prices in Kollam are influenced by international gold prices (set in USD on London and New York commodity markets), the USD-INR exchange rate, import duties, 3% GST, and local domestic demand — especially during wedding and festival seasons.
Is this the final price I pay at a jewelry shop?
No. The rates shown here are the base Kerala board gold rates. At a jewelry shop, you will additionally pay making charges (varies by design, typically 8–25% of gold value), 3% GST on the total, and hallmarking charges. Always ask for a detailed bill.
