AKGSMA and IAGES Join Forces in Kozhikode to Elevate Kerala’s Gold Trade Standards
The All Kerala Gold and Silver Merchants Association (AKGSMA) held its State Council Meeting in Kozhikode, in collaboration with the India Association for Gold Excellence and Standards (IAGES) — a significant stride towards strengthening transparency, trust, and professionalism in Kerala’s gold trade sector.
The meeting was presided over by K. Surendran, State President of AKGSMA, with prominent office bearers including Adv. S. Abdul Nazar (General Secretary), C.V. Krishnadas (Treasurer), M. Vineeth (Working Secretary), and Betty Thomas, representative of the World Gold Council, in attendance.
Kaushalendra Sinha, CEO of IAGES, emphasized the initiative’s core vision — to integrate small traders into a trusted and transparent gold ecosystem. “Our mission is to raise the bar for India’s gold trade by empowering stakeholders with professional standards and building consumer trust,” he stated.
Key figures such as State Vice Presidents Faisal Amin, Abdul Aziz Erbad, and P. T. Abdurahman Haji, along with several State Committee Secretaries from across districts, participated and addressed the gathering.
A highlight of the meeting was a strategic discussion between Kaushalendra Sinha, Betty Thomas, and M.P. Ahammed, Chairman of Malabar Group, along with AKGSMA leaders. The dialogue focused on statewide collaboration to promote IAGES’s vision and strengthen Kerala’s position in India’s evolving gold standards framework.
This meeting marks a key milestone in aligning Kerala’s robust jewellery sector with national efforts for excellence and ethical trade practices.
