Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum) is the capital of Kerala, home to the famous Padmanabhaswamy Temple — which holds one of the world's largest collections of gold in its vaults. As Kerala's capital with a large government and IT sector workforce, Thiruvananthapuram has a high and consistent gold demand. The Padmanabhaswamy Temple's gold holdings have brought international attention to gold in this city.

Gold prices in Thiruvananthapuram have been on a strong upward trend in 2026, driven by global uncertainty, US Federal Reserve policy changes, strong central bank buying and a weakening rupee.

This sustained appreciation makes gold one of the best performing assets in India.
