Gold price in Kozhikode, session by session
IBJA fixes twice a trading day. The morning fix sets the rate most shops open on and the afternoon fix is what the day closes at, so a piece quoted late can differ from one quoted at eleven.

Where to buy gold in Kozhikode
The gold trade in Kozhikode sits in S.M. Street (Mittai Theruvu). Malabar Gold & Diamonds was founded here in 1993 and the city remains north Kerala’s gold reference.
Jewellery houses founded in Kozhikode or elsewhere in Kerala include Malabar Gold & Diamonds, Chemmanur and Alukkas. A chain’s own board rate is its rate, not the benchmark: it already carries the house’s premium and it is the making charge underneath, not the headline, that decides what the piece costs.
Gold in the south is bought by weight and quoted per gram, and 916 is the default: a 22-carat chain or a pair of bangles is the standard purchase, not an 18-carat studded piece. Making charges are quoted openly as a percentage here more often than they are in the north, which makes two quotes easier to compare.

Owning gold without taking delivery of it
Every route below tracks the same metal. What separates them is cost and what happens when you sell: an exchange-traded fund charges an expense ratio and sells back at the market price, while jewellery charges a making charge that is gone the moment you leave the shop.

What gold’s own numbers imply from here
Realised volatility over the last year is 26.9% annualised. Applied to the fix of ₹1,49,430, that puts about two years in three inside these bounds.

Hallmarking centres in Kozhikode
Kozhikode has 8 operative BIS-recognised assaying and hallmarking centres, which places it 23rd of the fifty cities on this site. Workable, but not deep. A jeweller here is more likely to send pieces out for hallmarking in batches than to have it done the same day. Hallmarking is compulsory on gold jewellery, and the mark carries a six-digit HUID that can be checked against the BIS register before money changes hands. Every centre below is named in that register.

Common questions
What is the 24 carat gold rate in Kozhikode today?
Gold of 999 fineness is ₹14,943 a gram, or ₹1,49,430 per 10 grams, on the IBJA fix of 9 Oct 2026. That figure excludes 3% GST.
What is the 22 carat gold rate in Kozhikode today?
Gold of 916 fineness is ₹13,688 a gram, or ₹1,36,878 per 10 grams. It is 91.6% gold, which is why it is 8.4% below the 24 carat rate.
What does one tola of gold cost in Kozhikode?
A tola is 11.66 grams, so 24 carat gold works out at ₹1,74,292 and 22 carat at ₹1,59,652, before GST.
Why does the gold rate in Kozhikode differ from the price a jeweller quotes?
The fix is the metal alone. A bill adds 3% GST and a making charge, which on jewellery commonly runs between 8% and 25% of the metal value depending on the design, and is not recovered when the piece is sold back.
Does the gold rate change by city?
IBJA fixes one rate for India and it is the rate lenders and jewellers price against. What changes locally is the making charge, the dealer premium on small pieces and how much competition there is: Kozhikode has 8 BIS-recognised assaying and hallmarking centres.
Has gold gone up or down over the last year?
Gold is up 17.7% over twelve months, and up 208.5% over five years, measured in rupees.
