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.

This Raksha Bandhan, Turn A Timeless Bond Into A Keepsake With Palmonas
Turning A Timeless Tradition Into A Keepsake Of Sibling Love
Raksha Bandhan has always been about more than a thread tied around a brother’s wrist. It is a celebration of a bond built over years, from childhood arguments and inside jokes to being each other’s constant through life’s biggest moments. As siblings grow older, the relationship may evolve, but the feeling behind it only becomes stronger.
This Raksha Bandhan, Palmonas brings a contemporary touch to the traditional ritual with its Rakhi collection, designed to celebrate the sibling bond in a way that can be cherished beyond the festival. Palmonas’ Rakhis bring this thought to life by transforming a familiar festive symbol into a keepsake that can be worn and treasured even after Raksha Bandhan. The collection features two distinct options, each offering a different take on the timeless ritual.


The Demi-fine® Rakhi is crafted from Stainless Steel with an 18K gold-tone finish, bringing together contemporary design and meaningful symbolism. The collection features the Harmony Mandala Rakhi, accented with 9 cubic zirconia stones, which symbolizes harmony and balance. Inspired by the mandala, its intricate design reflects the togetherness shared between siblings. The Eternal Tree of Life Rakhi draws inspiration from the symbol of the Tree of Life, representing prosperity, growth and strength. The Guiding Star Rakhi, embellished with 10+ cubic zirconia stones, symbolizes guidance, hope, and protection, reflecting the special bond between siblings and the promise of always being there for one another. Each design is finished with a comfortable knotted thread, bringing together thoughtful symbolism and contemporary craftsmanship.


For those looking for something more timeless, the Silver Rakhi collection is crafted from fine silver, offering a refined take on the traditional Rakhi. The Eternal Infinity BRO Fine Silver Rakhi, designed for brothers, features two white cubic zirconia stones and symbolizes the strength and lifelong bond between siblings. The Eternal Evil Eye Fine Silver Rakhi features the iconic Evil Eye motif, a classic symbol of protection and good fortune, thoughtfully designed to celebrate the unbreakable bond between siblings.
At its heart, Raksha Bandhan is about showing up for each other. The gifts may change with time, but the emotion remains the same. With its Rakhi collection, Palmonas celebrates this evolving expression of sibling love, giving a familiar tradition a modern, wearable form that can become a lasting reminder of the bond between brothers and sisters.
Because some bonds deserve more than a moment, they deserve a keepsake.
