Used tool sets in Thiruvananthapuram typically sell for ₹900 to ₹8,500 (about $9 to $89). Tool sets sell on completeness, so count everything against the case moulding before listing — a set with obvious gaps is worth far less than one you can show is complete.
Selling a tool set in Thiruvananthapuram
Thiruvananthapuram is Kerala’s capital, with a large technology park, exceptionally high literacy and a humid coastal climate. Books and computing equipment both have unusually strong local markets.
The city runs along the coast and the roads are narrow in the older parts, so timing matters. Technology park traffic is heavy at either end of the working day.
Humidity is constant. On books check for foxing and on electronics ask about storage, because both suffer here in ways that are not visible until they matter.
Thiruvananthapuram, in Kerala, has around 750,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Kochi, Kozhikode and Kollam are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Brand, piece count and type: “Halfords Advanced 200 Piece Tool Set, Complete in Case”. Piece count is the main search term. Say honestly whether it is complete — “complete” or “missing 4 pieces, listed below” both work far better than silence.
