About Pavan Rate
Providing transparent, verified, and timely 22ct and 24ct gold market rates for jewellery buyers, wedding planners, and bullion investors across Kerala.
Why Accurate Rates Matter in Kerala
In Kerala, gold is not simply a decorative metal — it is an integral cultural asset, a cornerstone of wedding planning, and the preferred long-term savings vehicle for millions of families.
With billions of rupees circulating through showrooms in Kozhikode, Thrissur, Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, and Malappuram every month, buyers deserve transparent, unbiased daily benchmark prices before walking into a showroom.
Pavan Rate was established to provide a dedicated, independent reference portal that publishes the exact wholesale benchmark rate announced four times daily, free from retail markups or sponsored promotional skew.
How We Source and Verify Daily Rates
Three layers of data validation ensure our benchmarks reflect true market reality.
Jewellers Associations
We compile announcements from official Kerala bullion desks and major jewellers associations across Thrissur and Kozhikode at 9:30 AM, 1:00 PM, 4:30 PM, and 8:00 PM.
Spot Gold & Forex
Local rates are cross-referenced against international spot prices (USD/oz), London bullion fixes, and USD-INR currency conversions to explain sudden spikes or drops.
14 Districts Uniformity
Kerala maintains a single uniform benchmark rate across all 14 districts. We monitor district bullion chapters to confirm rate alignment throughout trading hours.
Consumer Advisory for Kerala Buyers
The rates published on this site are wholesale bullion benchmark prices. When buying ornaments, retail showrooms add making charges (Panikooli / Wastage) between 5% and 18%, plus 3% GST (1.5% CGST + 1.5% SGST). Under Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) regulations, every 22ct and 18ct gold ornament must carry a laser-engraved 6-digit HUID code. Never accept an unhallmarked ornament.
