Firefly Diamonds, one of India’s fastest-growing lab-grown diamond jewellery brands, is celebrating its first anniversary with a series of announcements. These include the launch of a new collection, the unveiling of its website, exclusive festive offers, and a roadmap for future expansion.
In just one year, Firefly has grown from its debut store in Mumbai to six boutiques across four cities including Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad
The launch of fireflydiamonds.com represents a major milestone in the brand’s omnichannel journey. The platform brings Firefly’s premium in-store experience online, enabling customers across India to browse collections, personalize pieces, and shop from the comfort of their homes all while staying true to the brand’s hallmark of craftsmanship, sustainability, and modern luxury.

“Our new website is more than just a digital storefront, it’s an extension of the Firefly experience,” said Adit Bhansali, Co-founder, Firefly Diamonds. “By blending high-touch service with cutting-edge technology, we’re making premium diamond jewellery accessible and enjoyable for a new generation of shoppers. From personalized designs to timeless pieces for engagements, weddings, and other cherished milestones, Firefly aims to be more than a jeweler, we aspire to be a trusted companion in life’s most meaningful moments.”
To mark its anniversary and the festive season, Firefly has introduced a bouquet of offers and services designed around customer delight.
- Firefly Studio – A ring design experience that allows customers to fully personalise their ring. This can be experienced in-store or online with 360-degree visuals and live pricing.
- Firefly Concierge / Try at Home: Integrated with the new website, this service lets customers shortlist pieces online and experience them at home before purchasing. With expert styling support, it bridges the brand’s digital and in-store touchpoints, creating a true omnichannel experience
- Firefly Family – The Firefly Family is a loyalty program with unique rewards and experiences, reserved exclusively for its most valued customers
- Old Gold Exchange: Allows customers to bring in existing gold jewellery and convert it into Firefly store credit, with a generous top-up for added value
Announcing the launch of its new collection- All Ways You, the brand continues to honor its heritage techniques while embracing innovative design. The new collection redefines versatility in premium design, showcasing how a single piece of jewellery can be worn and utilized to suit every occasion. For example, a custom-engineered lock integrated into the design, transforms a ring into a pendant offering multiple styling possibilities. Designed for the contemporary woman, All Ways You, transforms how jewellery is worn, turning every piece into a statement of adaptability and style.
Earlier this year, Firefly secured $3 million in funding from WestBridge Capital and others. This investment reinforces Firefly’s mission to democratize diamond ownership and build India’s most trusted lab-grown diamond brand. Looking ahead, the company plans to continue expanding its offline footprint across new cities while strengthening its digital presence in 2026 bringing its unique blend of luxury, sustainability, and innovation to more customers nationwide.

IAGES Accredited Partner Directory Brings Verified Gold Businesses Together on One Trusted Platform
Hosting More than 700 Accredited Outlets Across 200+ cities, the IAGES Directory Serves as a Bridge Between Consumers Seeking Trustworthy Gold Transactions and Accredited businesses
The Accredited Partner Directory launched by the Indian Association for Gold Excellence and Standards (IAGES) in November, 2025 has gained significant momentum among consumers and gold businesses since its inception. This one-stop digital platform now hosts a growing network of over 700 IAGES partner outlets across 200 cities, allowing consumers to find verified, trusted jewellers nearest to them before they step out to buy or exchange gold.
An IAGES verified business follows a stringent code of conduct that mandates accountability, responsibility and ethical conduct across its entire value chain. IAGES’ Accredited Partner Directory offers consumers trust, confidence and peace of mind, allowing them to explore and choose these verified, third-party assessed gold jewellers nearest to them either by brand name, location, or category.
The accredited entities appearing in the directory include strong national, regional and city-based large, medium and small retailers. The directory not only includes verified gold jewellers, but also lists gold refiners, bullion traders, manufacturers and assaying and hallmarking centres and digital gold retailers.
Kaushlendra Sinha, CEO, IAGES, said:

“The growing list of partners in the IAGES Accredited Partner Directory reflects the gold industry’s readiness to adopt transparent and compliant business practices, building consumer confidence and trust while slowly formalising the gold ecosystem in India. We invite all gold businesses to come forward and join the movement to transform India’s gold industry, one accreditation at a time!”
IAGES is currently running a consumer awareness campaign – ‘Before you exchange or buy gold #PehlaCheckIAGES’ to spread the word about the importance of buying gold only from a verified, credible retailer. The successful campaign has reached 50 million+ consumers through online and offline mediums, while the IAGES website is seeing massive hits every day as consumers check the directory to verify a gold business.
Sumeet Deoda, Vice President – Marketing and Communication, IAGES said:
“Clearly, the IAGES Accredited Partner Directory has been much anticipated by consumers, gold jewellers and gold business entities alike! We are happy to finally share this growing database with the world even as we continue to work towards our goal of changing the gold-buying mindset in India as the first, crucial step towards formalising the industry,”
