Gargi by P N Gadgil & Sons, is now entering the world of instant commerce. Starting this week, Gargi’s curated range of fashion and silver jewellery is available on Blinkit in Pune, with a Mumbai rollout scheduled by the end of May 2025.
The Blinkit collection features a handpicked selection of stylish, everyday pieces priced under ₹1000, tailored for quick gifting, festive looks, and impulse fashion buys.

The Hon’ble Consul General of India to Dubai, Shri Vishnu Vardhan Reddy, visited the Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB) complex on July 24, and after being shown around the complex, engaged with members of the Bourse Committee.
The visit enabled the Consul General to gather better insights into the functioning of the diamond trade and the operations within the Bourse. He also observed the smooth functioning of import-export trade in diamonds between the two countries, facilitated by the PCCCC run by Indian Customs within the complex.
The UAE is one of India’s most significant trading partners in the field of diamonds and jewellery. Bilateral trade between the two countries reached US$33.51 billion in FY2025-26.
In addition to a tour of the complex to understand the complete cycle from the import of rough diamonds to the export of polished diamonds, Shri Vishnu Vardhan Reddy also spent time interacting with Mehul Shah, Vice President, BDB, and other Committee members.
The BDB Committee highlighted the close connections between diamond companies in Mumbai and those in Dubai, as well as the regular interactions between the two centres. They thanked Shri Vishnu Vardhan Reddy for the cooperation they have always received from the Indian Embassy and expressed confidence that this visit would further streamline the movement of import-export parcels between the two countries.
Shri Vishnu Vardhan Reddy appreciated the global standards of the infrastructure and systems within the Bharat Diamond Bourse, as well as the professionalism with which the import-export trade operates. He assured the BDB Committee of the continued support of the officials at the Indian Embassy in the UAE.
