Value‑Added Jewellery Boosts Jobs and Revenue, Says GJEPC

GJEPC Chairman Kirti Bansal emphasized that the August figures illustrate the sector’s capacity to move up the value chain. The increase in diamond‑set jewellery exports demonstrates that India is no longer reliant solely on raw or semi‑processed stones.

Instead, the country is cementing its reputation as a producer of high‑end finished jewellery, a shift that generates higher margins, enriches the manufacturing ecosystem, and creates new skilled employment opportunities across the country.
