About Us

Four Generations • One Promise

A Legacy of Trust Since 1918

From a humble beginning in Jamshedpur to becoming a trusted name across generations, Chhaganlal Dayaljee stands for honesty, purity, and relationships that last a lifetime.

1918

A tin shed, ₹50, and a promise of fairness

CHD began under a tin shed in Bistupur Bazaar. At a time when jewellers were often misunderstood, our founder chose to build trust through uncompromised quality and sincere service.

VALUES

Before Hallmarks, There Was CHD

In a time before official certifications, purity was judged by trust. In Jamshedpur, CHD gold became known as “Chhaganlal ka sona” — a name that stood for unmatched honesty and uncompromised quality. What began as belief soon became tradition, carried forward through generations of enduring relationships.

2000

Modern retail, same CHD values

Renovated in 2000, CHD introduced a diamond counter and brought hallmarked jewellery to Jamshedpur, blending heritage with a modern experience.

CERTIFIED

Quality recognised beyond the region

With certified diamonds and global standards, CHD strengthened trust through authenticity. Institutional recognition validated what customers already believed for decades.
