Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Kerala's state capital, has its primary gold market along MG Road and Chalai Bazar, one of the oldest commercial streets in South India.

Gulf NRI remittances and the strong government workforce keep gold demand consistently high. Traditional Kerala temple jewellery — including Manga Mala (mango chain), Kasumala (coins necklace), and Pallakka — is the city's signature. 22K Malabar-style gold is the standard. Gold rates track the Kerala MCX benchmark and closely follow Chennai prices.
