Why prices in Varanasi can differ

Bhavflow publishes one national indicative rate. A Varanasi jeweller’s board rate can be slightly higher or lower because of local association or bullion-dealer rates, transport and insurance costs, and the shop’s own margin; making charges and 3% GST come on top.

Dhanteras is a major buying day in Varanasi for gold, silver coins and utensils. Rates are usually quoted per 10 grams for gold and per kg for silver.

Where to buy gold in Varanasi

In Varanasi, traditional jewellers and silversmiths work in the dense lanes of the old city around Chowk and Thatheri Bazaar, near the ghats, while newer showrooms are on the main roads towards Sigra, Lanka and Mahmoorganj.

Chowk and Thatheri Bazaar
The old-city market lanes, known for metalwork, with family jewellers and silversmiths.
Sigra and Mahmoorganj
Newer showrooms of regional and national chains.

Before you buy: hallmark, HUID and making charges

  • Check the BIS hallmark on every piece: the BIS logo, the purity grade (for example 22K916 or 18K750) and a 6-digit HUID. Since 1 April 2023, registered jewellers may only sell hallmarked gold jewellery that carries a HUID (small items under 2 g and kundan, polki and jadau pieces are exempt).
  • Verify the HUID in the BIS CARE app (Verify HUID): it shows the purity, the type of article and the jeweller’s registration, which should match your bill.
  • Making charges vary widely. As general guidance, machine-made chains and plain bangles are often in the range of about 3–10% of the gold value, while handcrafted, temple, antique or filigree work commonly runs 12–25% or more; some jewellers charge a flat amount per gram instead. Ask for the charge in writing and compare shops.
  • 3% GST is charged on the jewellery bill. Ask for a GST invoice that lists net weight, purity, rate per gram, making charges, HUID and tax separately.
  • Ask about buyback and exchange terms before you buy: most jewellers pay the day’s rate for the tested purity minus a deduction.

Gold rate in Varanasi: FAQ

What should I check when buying silver for Dhanteras?

Purity (999 for coins and bars, often 925 for jewellery), weight and a GST invoice. Silver hallmarking with HUID is voluntary; where present, verify it in the BIS CARE app.

Is the gold rate in Varanasi the same as in Lucknow?

Usually very close; GST is 3% everywhere, and gaps come from local premiums and each shop’s margin.

Does Bhavflow show a Varanasi-specific gold rate?

No. Bhavflow publishes one national indicative rate, calculated from international prices, and shows it on every city page. Jewellers in Varanasi may quote slightly different rates because of local association or bullion-dealer rates, transport and insurance costs and their own margins, and they add making charges and 3% GST.
