Insights from Industry Leadership: The Vision for India’s Gems and Jewellery Sector

Speaking passionately on the 10^th edition of DJGF, Mr. Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director of Informa Markets in India, emphasized the critical role of the Indian Gems and Jewellery sector. “The Indian Gems and Jewellery sector is home to over 3,00,000 jewellers, generating massive employment opportunities. Contributing around 29% to global jewellery consumption and being one of the leading contributors to the national economy, the gems and jewellery sector needs significant reforms and support. With the Government of India’s recent measures of reducing customs duty on cut and polished diamonds and gemstones to 5%, the extension of ECLGS for MSMEs, promoting investment and upgrading technology and skills to promote ‘Brand India’ in the international market will open up opportunities for the sector to grow,” stated Mr. Mudras, highlighting the sector’s immense potential and the positive impact of supportive government policies.

Mr. Mudras further elaborated on the unique offerings of this milestone edition: “The most celebrated B2B Jewellery show in the North is back, this time its 10th-anniversary edition offering an array of authentic and unique jewellery just before the start of the wedding and festive season. Be it Mughal antique, gold, diamond, rubies, emeralds, sapphires, polkis, kundan or navratna jewellery, our buyers will be delighted to see the collection and innovation DJGF has to offer this year. We will be celebrating our 10th edition with DJGF UTSAV showcasing and offering 10 unique features for the Gems and Jewellery community to network, get recognised, grow their business and celebrate together.” His remarks underscore the event’s strategic timing, diverse offerings, and the festive spirit of DJGF UTSAV.
