GJEPC, in association with Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB) and Mumbai Customs, conducted a focused session on Hand-Carried Jewellery Exports from Mumbai Airport at BDB on 17 February. The session provided practical guidance on procedures for carrying high-value jewellery consignments, documentation requirements, and compliance protocols. It also included a briefing on key Budget 2026-27 provisions for the gem and jewellery sector. The event was graced by  Ashish Borda, Convener – PMBD, GJEPC, who welcomed the guest speakers.

In his keynote address, Harsh Singh, Additional Commissioner of Customs, Precious Cargo Customs Clearance Centre (PCCCC), presented an overview of Budget 2026–27 announcements relevant to the gem and jewellery sector. He highlighted policy measures aimed at reducing trade friction, lowering entry barriers for exporters, and enabling companies, particularly MSMEs, to access global markets more efficiently. He also noted that improving sentiment and leveraging new trade opportunities would be important after a challenging year.

Explaining the operational framework, Inderveer Singh, Deputy Commissioner (Imports), PCCCC, explained that the hand carriage facility enables passengers to carry jewellery consignments in personal baggage under Customs supervision, supported by secure storage, sealing, and escorted movement at the airport. He clarified that documentation requirements remain largely aligned with regular filings, with specific passenger and flight details added, and emphasised that clearance timelines are being kept minimal, with a target of completing processes within about 24 hours to avoid trade disruption.

Also present on the occasion was Jayesh Jadhav, Assistant Commissioner, PCCCC. GJEPC has been instrumental in initiating and operationalising the hand-carriage jewellery export facility in Mumbai through sustained engagement with Customs authorities, aimed at enabling faster, cost-efficient shipments for exporters. GJEPC together with Mumbai Customs had inaugurated the Jewellery Hand Carriage Facilitation Centre at Mumbai Airport – Terminal 2, in July 2025.
