In Kerala, gold is usually quoted per pavan, which is 8 grams. To find the metal price of one pavan, multiply the per-gram rate by 8. The price on a bill is higher, because making charges and GST are added, so compare the total for a pavan of the same design, not the metal price alone. Onam, Vishu, Akshaya Tritiya and the wedding season are the busiest times, and most jewellery is made in 22K (916) gold with a BIS hallmark.

The cards at the top show the live price per gram and per 8 g pavan for 24K, 22K and 18K gold, with the time of the last update.
A pavan is 8 grams. Tamil Nadu uses the word sovereign for the same weight. Multiply the per-gram rate by 8 to get the metal price of one pavan.
The bill adds the making charge and GST to the metal price. The charge varies with the design, so two pavans of different designs can cost different amounts.
Demand rises at Onam, Vishu and Akshaya Tritiya, and through the wedding season. Shops are busier then, so it helps to compare quotes and order special designs early.
Yes. The gold is valued by purity and weight, and stones, enamel and other fittings are normally not counted as gold. Ask the GoldCash team how your piece will be assessed.
