Wholesale Stainless Steel Jewellery Prices in India: What a Reseller Pays per Piece (October 2026)
Short answer: at Qimati, most wholesale stainless steel jewellery is priced between ₹75 and ₹300 per piece, and the typical piece costs about ₹140. Earrings start at ₹45, necklaces at ₹75, kada bracelets at ₹60 and rings at ₹50. Watches and the brass Indian jewellery range sit higher. These are the prices shown on www.qimati.in for designs in stock in October 2026; they are per piece, in Indian rupees, and every price on the site is the wholesale price.
Wholesale price per piece by category
The table below is taken from Qimati's live catalogue on 12 October 2026. "Typical" is the middle price in each category, so half the designs cost less and half cost more.
| Category | Material | From | Typical | Up to |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Earrings (sold as pairs) | 316L / 304 steel | ₹45 | ₹115 | ₹350 |
| Rings | 316L / 304 steel | ₹50 | ₹125 | ₹2,100 for a boxed set |
| Kada bracelets | 316L / 304 steel | ₹60 | ₹145 | ₹300 |
| Chain bracelets | 316L steel | ₹75 | ₹140 | ₹335 |
| Necklaces | 316L / 304 steel | ₹75 | ₹165 | ₹600 |
| Anklets (sold singly) | 304 steel | ₹75 | ₹117 | ₹165 |
| Hand chains | 304 steel | ₹105 | ₹125 | ₹150 |
| Nose pins | Brass | ₹75 | ₹75 | ₹75 |
| Watches | 304 steel | ₹225 | ₹260 | ₹330 |
| Indian jewellery (pendant sets, brooches) | Brass | ₹225 | ₹345 | ₹1,380 |
Two details matter when you compare these with other quotes. Indian pendant sets ship without a chain; chains are sold separately from ₹85. And the gold tone on every steel design is an 18kt gold-colour PVD finish, a coating, not solid or plated gold, which is part of why the prices sit where they do.
What moves the price up or down
- Steel grade. 316L designs typically cost about ₹160 at Qimati and 304 designs about ₹125. The finish and the look are the same; 316L is the higher grade with better corrosion resistance. See 316L vs 304 for resellers.
- Weight and size. A chunky kada or a long layered necklace uses more steel than a thin chain, and price follows weight.
- Stones and extras. Cubic zirconia, pearls, enamel and shell add to the cost of the base piece.
- Movements and mechanisms. Watches carry a movement and a clasp, which is why they start around ₹225.
- Brass versus steel. Brass Indian jewellery is hand-finished and heavier, so pendant sets and brooches cost more than a steel necklace of the same size.
What ₹1,000 buys
Qimati's minimum order is ₹1,000 on the cart total, with no minimum per design. At the typical price of about ₹140, that is roughly seven different designs in a first order. A realistic opening basket for an Instagram seller looks like this: two necklaces at about ₹165, two pairs of earrings at about ₹115, one kada at about ₹145, one ring at about ₹125 and one anklet at about ₹117, for a little over ₹1,000 before delivery. That gives you seven designs to photograph, post and price, rather than one sample.
Domestic delivery adds ₹150 for orders up to ₹5,000, plus ₹150 for each further ₹5,000 or part of it. There is no cash on delivery; orders are prepaid.
How Qimati's prices compare with directory listings
Directory sites such as IndiaMART list stainless steel jewellery anywhere from about ₹15 to ₹240 per piece. A listed price is not a landed price. Before you compare, ask each supplier five things: the steel grade (316L, 304 or unstated), the coating (PVD or standard electroplating), the minimum quantity per design, the minimum order value, and the delivery charge to your pin code. A ₹60 necklace with a 50-piece minimum per design, plain plating and a ₹400 courier charge rarely beats a ₹140 necklace you can buy one at a time with a stated grade and PVD finish.
Qimati's position on each of those is public: grade stated on every design, PVD finish on every gold-tone design, no minimum per design, ₹1,000 minimum per order, and delivery charges shown at checkout.
Working out your landed cost and retail price
Landed cost per piece = (order value + delivery) ÷ number of pieces. For the ₹1,000 basket above with ₹150 delivery, that is about ₹165 per piece. Resellers set retail prices in different ways, but a simple check is to price each piece so that it covers landed cost, packaging, a share of your Instagram or marketplace fees, and the margin you want. Using the basket above:
| Piece | Landed cost | Retail at 2× | Retail at 2.5× |
|---|---|---|---|
| Necklace | about ₹190 | ₹379 | ₹475 |
| Earrings (pair) | about ₹140 | ₹279 | ₹349 |
| Kada | about ₹170 | ₹339 | ₹425 |
The multipliers are examples, not advice; your market sets the ceiling. What the table shows is that per-piece wholesale prices in the ₹100 to ₹200 band leave room for a retail price under ₹500, which is the band where most online fashion-jewellery sales in India happen.
