Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu's second-largest city, has a thriving gold market centred around Big Bazaar Street and DB Road. The city is known for its textile industry connections to gold (mill owners historically invested in gold). Major national chains like Tanishq, Kalyan, and Joyalukkas have large stores here.

Coimbatore's Gounder and Chettiar communities are prolific gold buyers. The annual Aadi Pooram festival sees significant gold purchases. Being adjacent to Kerala, Coimbatore sees influence from Malayali gold traditions too. South Indian temple jewellery styles (temple chain, jimiki earrings) are popular here.

Buying tip: Coimbatore gold prices are comparable to Chennai but with potentially lower city premiums. Being a large manufacturing and commercial city, Coimbatore has competitive gold retail pricing. The Akshaya Tritiya and Diwali seasons offer schemes from major jewellers worth watching.

GST of 3% is applicable on all gold purchases in India. For investment gold (coins, bars), making charges are typically lower than jewellery. Always insist on a BIS hallmark certificate when buying gold in Coimbatore.
