DGFT Summit Explores E-commerce’s Role in Boosting Gem & Jewellery Export Potential

Published

on

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) hosted an E-commerce Export Summit at Bharat Mandapam, Pragati Maidan, on 11th March, gathering industry leaders to explore the growing potential of e-commerce in enhancing retail exports. Mr. Sabyasachi Ray, Executive Director of GJEPC, delivered a keynote presentation on ‘Enhancing Retail Exports through E-commerce.’

In his opening remarks, Mr. Ray emphasized the critical role of e-commerce platforms in driving growth for the gem and jewellery sector. He noted that e-commerce is particularly well-suited to this industry due to the low volume and high value of its products, making it ideal for cross-border trade. He expressed confidence that businesses in the sector will see substantial growth in the near future, driven by the accessibility and scalability of e-commerce.

Mr. Ray also provided insights into recent foreign trade policy reforms introduced by the Government of India. These regulatory changes have significantly eased e-commerce exports, contributing to the sector’s remarkable growth. Currently, India’s gem and jewellery exports total $38 billion, with projections aiming for $100 billion by 2047, largely fueled by the expanding e-commerce landscape.

He advised exporters to focus on identifying key product markets and understanding consumer preferences to secure repeat business. Additionally, he highlighted the recent partnerships formed by the GJEPC with major e-commerce platforms like eBay, Amazon, and DHL, aiming to provide a seamless export experience for its members.

MMTC-PAMP, India’s only London Bullion Market Association (LBMA)-accredited Good Delivery  Gold & Silver refiner, today announced acclaimed actor Sidharth Malhotra as its Brand Ambassador, marking a significant  milestone in the brand’s journey to strengthen its connection with a new generation of consumers. As part of the association,  Sidharth will lead MMTC-PAMP’s new integrated campaign, ‘Purest And More,’ showcasing the brand’s expanding portfolio  across physical precious metals, digital investments and responsible gold recycling. 

The integrated campaign showcases MMTC-PAMP’s complete ecosystem, from 24K 999.9+ purest gold and silver coins and  bars to digital gold and silver, gold recycling, online purchasing and assured buyback services. Through relatable, everyday  moments and festive celebrations, the campaign reinforces MMTC-PAMP’s position as India’s most trusted precious metals  brand while making gold ownership more relevant, accessible and convenient for today’s consumers. 

Announcing the association, Samit Guha, Managing Director and CEO, MMTC-PAMP said:

“We are delighted to welcome  Sidharth Malhotra to the MMTC-PAMP family. Sidharth has built a strong reputation through authenticity, credibility and a  modern outlook—qualities that closely reflect the values of our brand. As one of India’s most admired and influential actors,  he enjoys a deep connect across generations, making him an ideal ambassador as we continue expanding the reach of MMTC PAMP among both seasoned investors and first-time buyers.

This partnership comes at an exciting phase in our growth as we  continue to redefine precious metals ownership through innovation, responsible sourcing and world-class quality. Through  our ‘Purest And More’ campaign, we are showcasing how MMTC-PAMP today offers far more than physical gold—from digital  investments and online buying to gold recycling and assured buyback—while remaining uncompromising on purity and trust.”

The campaign film unfolds through a series of relatable family moments around a wedding celebration, with Sidharth  naturally introducing consumers to MMTC-PAMP’s diverse offerings. The storytelling highlights that every MMTC-PAMP  offering is backed by the brand’s commitment to purity, trust and convenience while reinforcing its promise of “Purest And  More.” 

Speaking on the association, Sidharth Malhotra said:

“MMTC-PAMP has built a remarkable reputation for purity, trust and  innovation, while also modernising the way people invest in and experience precious metals. Whether it’s celebrating life’s  milestones, building long-term wealth or embracing more responsible choices through recycled gold, the brand continues to  stay relevant for today’s consumers. I’m excited to be part of this journey and look forward to connecting with people through  the ‘Purest And More’ campaign.”

The association brings together one of India’s most recognised actors with one of the country’s most trusted precious metals  brands at a time when consumer interest in certified physical gold, digital gold and sustainable precious metals solutions  continues to grow. With Sidharth Malhotra as the face of the brand, MMTC-PAMP aims to further strengthen its leadership  position while deepening engagement with a younger, digitally connected audience. 

The campaign will be amplified across television, digital platforms, social media, print, retail stores and e-commerce channels,  with dedicated creatives highlighting key offerings including digital gold and silver, festive gifting, Virasat recycled gold,  Akshaya Tritiya, Diwali and MMTC-PAMP’s certified purity credentials.
