India’s gems, jewellery exports dip by 11.72% at $28.5 bn in FY25: GJEPC

The overall gems and jewellery exports stood at $32.2 billion in 2023-24

Mumbai: India’s overall gems and jewellery exports declined by 11.72 per cent to USD 28.5 billion (around Rs 2.41 lakh crore) in 2024-25 compared to the previous financial year on continued geopolitical tensions, according to the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC).

The overall gems and jewellery exports stood at $32.2 billion (Rs 2.67 lakh crore) in 2023-24, according to GJEPC data.

However, in March, the exports improved slightly, witnessing a growth of 1.02 per cent at USD 2,582.97 million (Rs 22,340.89 crore), compared to USD 2,556.97 million (Rs 21,228.71 crore) in the same month of the previous year, it added.

“The decline in gems and jewellery exports is mainly due to the continuous dip in demand in China as well as the US, India’s key export markets, due to the ongoing geopolitical tensions. Also, the correction in rough diamond prices by 10-15 per cent impacted the value, causing the overall decline in exports,” GJEPC Chairman Kirit Bhansali told PTI.

The overall exports of Cut and Polished diamonds (CPD) dipped by 16.75 per cent at  $13,292.0 million (Rs 1.12 lakh crore) compared to USD 15,967.02 million (Rs 1.32 lakh crore) for the same period of the previous year.

Total gold jewellery exports during FY25 showed a decline of 0.11 per cent at USD 11,215.46 million (Rs 94,937.78 crore) against $11,227.72 million (Rs 93,066.82 crore) in FY24.

Michael Law Although most Americans have now heard about CBD, many are very confused and concerned about product quality. This is inhibiting trial in the category and holding back conversion into sales. In fact, a 2017 study by Johns Hopkins University found that two out of three CBD products on the shelf did not contain the amount of CBD reflected on the label. Furthermore, in 2018 and 2019, the FDA sent notices to a substantial number of CBD manufacturers advising them of serious concerns about product quality or egregious medical claims. The impirica brand looks different than most CBD brands — the brand name itself connotes testing and trust, says Eagle Labs chief commercial officer Michael Law. “It doesn’t use the traditional category colors of browns and greens, and you won’t find a hemp...
