Gold rate in Chennai, what to know before you buy or sell

To find the metal price of one sovereign, multiply the per-gram rate by 8; making charges and GST are added on top. Tamil Nadu weddings, Pongal, Akshaya Tritiya and Diwali are the main buying seasons, and 22K temple jewellery is a favourite for brides. Many Chennai jewellers also run monthly gold savings schemes. If you consider one, read the terms in writing: which rate is used when you redeem, whether making charges are waived, and what happens if you stop paying.

Silver rate in Chennai

Silver in Chennai is a gift for new babies, such as kolusu anklets, and is also bought as lamps and puja articles. The rate is shown per gram and per kilogram. Look for the purity mark, and ask whether the item is solid silver or only silver-plated.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gold rate in Chennai today?

The cards at the top show the live price per gram and per 8 g sovereign for 24K, 22K and 18K gold, with the time of the last update.

How do I work out the price of one sovereign?

Multiply the per-gram rate by 8 for the metal. The jewellery bill then adds making charges and GST, so the final amount is higher than the metal value alone.

Is 22K the same as 916 gold?

Yes. Both mean 91.6% pure gold, which is the standard for most jewellery in Tamil Nadu. The 916 mark is how many jewellers state the purity.

What should I check in a jeweller's monthly gold scheme?

Check which rate applies when you redeem, whether making charges are waived, how long the scheme runs, and what happens if you miss or stop payments. Ask for the terms in writing.

Can I sell old temple jewellery in Chennai?

Yes. It is valued by purity and net gold weight at the day's rate. Stones, enamel and other fittings are normally not counted as gold, so the value can be lower than the piece's total weight suggests.
