The event was inaugurated with a grand unveiling, paving the way for over 40 international buyers to engage in curated one-on-one business meetings with Indian jewellery manufacturers and exporters. The venue buzzed with activity as new connections were forged and long-standing business relationships were rekindled.

Among the notable international buyers. Lisi Fracchia from Spain, visiting India for the first time, expressed her delight at the overwhelming business prospects. Her experience at the BSM not only introduced her to new business avenues but also gave her the opportunity to reconnect with existing suppliers participating in the show.

Cloyette Harris Stoute, representing Alliyette, USA, is also making her maiden visit to India. Her objective of understanding India’s advanced jewellery manufacturing technology and the comprehensive supply chain process was met with great satisfaction.

Bombay Chamber of Commerce & Industry organized a panel discussion  on “Building India’s Gold Monetization Marketplace”, moderated by Neil Borate, Editor-in-Chief of The Federal’s fintech platform The Fynprint. The panel featured Khushboo Ranawat, Regional Chairperson – West, and Member – National Exhibitions, GJEPC,  Richa Agarwal, Chief General Manager, SEBI; Ramakrishnan Padmanabhan, General Manager, Department of Metals & Commodities, IFSCA; Nilesh Lodaya, Chief Business Officer, CDSL; Rajnish Gupta, Partner, Tax and Economic Policy Group, EY India; and Gunveer Singh, Executive Director, Department of Payment & Settlement Systems, RBI.

The discussion explored ways to channel household gold into the formal financial system, strengthen India’s gold monetization ecosystem and reduce dependence on imports. Panelists noted that a significant share of India’s gold holdings consists of investment gold in the form of bars and coins, representing a substantial opportunity for future monetization. If India can replicate the convenience of a gold loan while offering attractive incentives, the country has the potential to mobilize significant domestic gold resources.

The seminar brought together regulators, market infrastructure institutions and industry leaders to discuss policy reforms, electronic gold receipts, tokenization and the development of a modern digital gold ecosystem. Speakers included Praveen Rai, MD & CEO of MCX, former SEBI Executive Director Pramod Rao, and senior officials from SEBI, IFSCA, RBI, CDSL and NSDL.
