Indian dealers this week offered a discount of up to $39 an ounce over official domestic prices, including 6 per cent import and 3 per cent sales levies, up from a discount of $10 to $21 last week.

“Jewellers are not keen on building high-cost inventory at the end of the financial year, as they are busy closing accounts,” said a Mumbai-based dealer with a bullion-importing bank. India’s financial year runs from April until March 31.
India’s gold imports are set to tumble 85% in February from year-ago levels, reaching their lowest levels in 20 years, as demand is dampened by record-high bullion prices.
In China, the world’s largest consumer, gold traded at a discount of $1 to an $18 premium over spot prices. Meanwhile, dealers in Hong Kong charged premiums ranging from par to $2 per ounce.In Japan, bullion was sold between a discount of $3 and a premium of $0.5, a trader said.

Where Every Story Of Love Begins: Dhirsons Jewellers Marks Mother’s Day With ‘First Love. First Gold.’
Dhirsons Jewellers Celebrates The Timeless Bond Between Mothers and Children With A Heartfelt Mother’s Day Campaign and A Specially Curated Gold and Diamond Jewellery Edit.
Dhirsons Jewellers, part of the Dhiraj Dhir Group, Lajpat Nagar, introduces its Mother’s Day campaign, First Love. First Gold., a tribute to the woman who gives us our first experience of love and continues to shape who we become.
The campaign is built around a simple idea: before we understood relationships or defined our own milestones, we experienced love in its most unconditional form through our mother. It is this early bond that stays with us, influencing how we think, how we respond, and how we live.
At Dhirsons, gold has long symbolised what endures, while diamonds represent brilliance and light. With First Love. First Gold., the brand brings these two together to reflect a mother’s role — constant, grounding, and quietly transformative.
“Before you chose love, you were given it. Before the brilliance became yours, it was hers.”


The campaign builds on this idea through a curated Mother’s Day edit featuring a curated selection of gold and diamond jewellery, ranging from timeless classics to contemporary designs. The collection is positioned as a thoughtful way to mark the occasion, with pieces that balance everyday wearability and occasion-led elegance. It is available across all Dhirsons showrooms and on the brand’s official website.
Speaking on the campaign, Riva Dhir, Creative Director, Dhirsons Jewellers, Dhiraj Dhir Group, Lajpat Nagar said:

“With First Love. First Gold, we aim to honour every mother who has been a symbol of love, shine and light in our lives. It acts as a reminder to all of us how incomplete our lives would be without her.”
The campaign is reflected across Dhirsons’ in-store experience, evoking warmth, elegance, and the quiet power of a mother’s presence. At its core, it reflects a bond understood more with time than in the moment, shaped quietly and expressed through everyday gestures that often go unspoken.
