"will you please buy me some jaggery when you go to the market?"
This seems more apt....than,
"will you please buy me some jaggery if you go to the market?"
And
If you are going to the market Will you please buy me some jaggery ?
is also perfect.

If you're going to the market, could you please buy me some jaggery?

Can is polite. So instead of 'will', 'can' may sound good.

Although it sounds correct, however, instead of "some jaggery for me", it should have been "me some jaggery". Will you please buy me some jaggery if you go to the market?

To make a request we use would. So "will" will be replaced by "would".

"if you go to the market?" shows that "if in any case he goes to the market, then buy jaggery" (not sure if the person being asked is going to the market or not).
"When you go to the market" tells that "he is going to the market and when he does get some jaggery" (sure that the person is going to the market).
"When you go to the market" tells that "he is going to the market and when he does get some jaggery" (sure that the person is going to the market).
