GJEPC and PCCCC Meet to Address Customs Clearance Challenges
On 5th February 2025, the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) hosted a significant meeting at its head office in Mumbai, bringing together Customs House Agents (CHAs) from the Precious Cargo Customs Clearance Centre (PCCCC) and various other stakeholders.
The primary focus of the meeting was to address the ongoing challenges faced in the export and import clearance process, particularly the daily operational hurdles encountered during parcel clearance with customs officials.
The meeting provided a platform for participants to engage in open dialogue and share the various difficulties they face while managing customs procedures. These included issues related to the timeliness of clearance, paperwork discrepancies, communication gaps, and other operational bottlenecks that often delay the smooth transit of goods. The participants discussed these challenges in detail, aiming to identify practical solutions to streamline the entire process.
In response to the discussions, GJEPC has requested all involved stakeholders to compile and submit a comprehensive report outlining the specific challenges faced in customs clearance, as well as providing suggestions for potential system improvements. These reports are expected to play a crucial role in identifying areas that require attention and in formulating effective solutions that will enhance the overall efficiency of the customs operations.
GJEPC aims to use these insights to work closely with the relevant authorities and stakeholders to improve the integration process, ensuring a more seamless experience for businesses involved in the import and export of precious cargo. The initiative is expected to contribute significantly to reducing delays, improving transparency, and boosting the overall efficiency of the jewellery trade’s customs clearance procedures.

Tamannaah Bhatia Unveils “Tamannaah Fine Jewellery” Label Rooted in Everyday Elegance
The actress steps into entrepreneurship with Tamannaah Fine Jewellery, a modern fine jewellery line designed for comfort, versatility, and effortless day-to-night wear.
Actress Tamannaah Bhatia has entered the fine jewellery space with the launch of her own label, Tamannaah Fine Jewellery, marking a new chapter in her creative journey. Known for her strong screen presence and distinctive personal style, Tamannaah brings her off-screen fashion philosophy to life through a collection that champions modern minimalism, wearability, and quiet luxury.

Launched through a sleek, fashion-forward digital film, the brand signals a shift away from occasion-centric jewellery towards pieces designed for real, everyday movement. Rooted in the idea of “modern better basics”, the collection focuses on elevated essentials that strike a balance between casual sophistication and understated glamour.
The debut line features a thoughtfully curated mix of contemporary mangalsutras, solid gold hoops, piercing-friendly designs, bold chains, and diamond-studded statement pieces. Crafted in gold and diamonds, the jewellery is designed to transition seamlessly from workdays to evenings out—without compromising on comfort or style.

What sets Tamannaah Fine Jewellery apart is its strong emphasis on wearability. Each piece is designed to move with the wearer, blending effortlessly into daily routines—be it an early morning meeting, a personal moment, or a celebratory dinner. With clean lines, neutral aesthetics, and timeless appeal, the designs are easy to style across outfits, moods, and moments.
By steering clear of fleeting trends and seasonal cycles, the brand positions itself as a destination for everyday fine jewellery that feels personal, powerful, and enduring—a reflection of Tamannaah Bhatia herself.
With this launch, Tamannaah Fine Jewellery redefines what fine jewellery looks like today: modern, versatile, and made to be lived in.
