Silver rate in Chennai — local context
Chennai jewellers quote almost entirely in 22K and price per gram rather than per 10g. Local rates often carry a small regional premium and demand spikes sharply around Akshaya Tritiya and the wedding season.
GST on silver is a uniform 3% across Tamil Nadu and the rest of India, so the price you pay in Chennai differs from other cities mainly by the local retail premium jewellers apply over the IBJA benchmark and by making-charge conventions — typically 1–2% on the metal value.
