Bluestone, a jewellery brand, is in talks to negotiate an investment of around Rs 830 crore from Peak XV Partners, Steadview Capital, and Think Investments.
The pre-IPO round will combine share sales by early investors with new capital, aiming to value the omnichannel retailer at approximately Rs 7,500 crore ($900 million) before the infusion, as per the report.
Venture capital firm Peak XV Partners will reportedly invest around Rs 415 crore in the round. A source speaking to the Economic Times said, “Peak XV is in talks to lead the funding amid a wider inclination for venture funds to tap domestic brands and offline retailers.”
Further, some family offices via special-purpose vehicles might also reportedly participate in the round. The round is expected to be closed in the next few days.
In September 2023, Bluestone raised $65 million from a group of investors at a valuation of $410 million.

Commenting on festive jewellery purchases, Parag Shah, CEO, KISNA Diamond & Gold Jewellery, said:

“Dhanteras and Diwali remain important occasions for jewellery purchases, whether for personal use, gifting or family celebrations.

Our focus is on addressing these considerations through offers that provide greater flexibility and value, while making jewellery purchases more convenient during the festive season.”
Beyond the festive offers, KISNA continues to provide 90% buyback and 95% exchange value on diamond jewellery, including making charges, under its applicable policies.
