Trust, tradition, and timeless craftsmanship took center stage as the Indian jewellery fraternity came together to commemorate a historic moment—100 years of Bhima Jewellery. The centennial celebration was marked by the grand unveiling of a commemorative coffee table book at the prestigious GJS 2025 chronicling the illustrious journey of one of India’s most respected jewellery houses.

The book, a visual and narrative tribute, beautifully captures the evolution of Bhima Jewellery—from a modest store established in 1925 by visionary founder Bhima Bhattar to a household name synonymous with quality, trust, and excellence in jewellery.

Addressing an emotional gathering, Dr. B Govindan, Chairman of Bhima Jewellery, reflected on the brand’s humble origins in Kerala. With heartfelt reverence, he paid tribute to his father, Bhima Bhattar, whose entrepreneurial spirit and unwavering commitment to integrity laid the foundation for the century-old legacy.“This is not just a celebration of a business milestone,” Dr. Govindan said, “but a testament to the enduring values that have guided us—trust, craftsmanship, and our deep-rooted connection with our customers. I express my deepest gratitude to the entire jewellery fraternity for their unwavering love and support throughout this journey.”

Industry veterans, peers, and admirers lauded Bhima Jewellery’s role in shaping India’s modern jewellery landscape while staying true to its traditional roots. The event was a blend of nostalgia and pride, underscoring how heritage brands like Bhima continue to inspire generations in a rapidly evolving industry.

The coffee table book, rich with archival photographs, design evolution, family anecdotes, and cultural context, now stands as a collector’s piece and a symbol of enduring legacy—celebrating not just 100 years of Bhima, but also a century of trust.

Precious metals extended their retreat for a second consecutive week as a firmer U.S. dollar and fading expectations of near-term interest-rate cuts from the Federal Reserve weighed on investor appetite for bullion.

In India, gold futures on the Multi Commodity Exchange settled below the ₹1.60-lakh mark per 10 grams at the close of trading on March 14,  silver futures declined about 1% for the day, reflecting persistent selling pressure across the metals complex.

Global markets echoed the weakness. Spot gold slipped more than 1%, struggling to hold above $5,050 an ounce, while spot silver tumbled roughly 4% to trade near $80.50 an ounce.

The pullback comes as the strengthening dollar reduces the appeal of dollar-denominated commodities. At the same time, investors are recalibrating expectations that the Federal Reserve will move quickly to ease monetary policy, diminishing one of the key catalysts that had propelled bullion prices higher earlier this year.
