Gold discounts in India widened this week to their highest point in nearly eight months, as a surge in prices to a record high dampened demand, while customers in other key hubs also remained on the sidelines. 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.

Jewellery Repeats Are Officially Off The Table With The Wedding Guest Edit By Kushals
A Versatile, Trend-Forward Collection Designed To Keep Every Wedding Guest Look Fresh, Effortless, and Celebration-Ready Across Every Function
If wedding season means back-to-back invites—from friends, cousins, and colleagues—the drill is familiar. Multiple functions per wedding, different jewellery for each outfit, and absolutely no repeats. Mehendi in the morning, sangeet at night, cocktail glam, muhurtam elegance—and somehow, new jewellery every single time.


So how does a wedding guest keep every look fresh & on-trend without overthinking it?
This Wedding Season, Kushals Fashion Jewellery introduces The Wedding Guest Edit—a curated collection for modern Indian wedding guests. Designed to keep every look stylish, effortless, and on point for every celebration.



Bringing together Indian traditional craftforms with 18K Gold Plating jewellery, the edit is rooted in versatility—offering multiple options for every outfit. Crafted with a premium finish and a comfort fit, the collection reflects Kushals’ artisanal expertise, with new designs introduced every week.


Kundan jewellery is reimagined for today, bringing a contemporary edge to the collection. Think bold chokers with coloured stone accents, layered necklaces, and versatile sets that can be styled multiple ways. The addition of Victorian plating—one of the season’s biggest trends—lends a rich depth to these designs. Perfect for cocktail sarees, fusion fits, and even statement baarati looks, these are pieces that transition effortlessly across wedding moments—be it haldi, mehendi, or the varmala. Designs that do the most, without trying too hard.
For those drawn to something more classic, the Antique jewellery range, crafted with rich gold-plated finishes, brings in depth through intricate detailing and textured designs. Statement maang tikkas, maatils, kaadhas, and temple-inspired pieces elevate traditional looks—perfect for muhurtam ceremonies and day functions where classic elegance takes centre stage.


And for those who love a little sparkle, the American Diamond (AD) range brings in just the right amount of shine. With delicate florals, pastel-hued stones from the latest launch, and modern silhouettes—from lightweight statement earrings to elegant necklace sets—these zircon pieces are perfect for cocktail looks and reception nights that call for effortless glam.
At its core, The Wedding Guest Edit is all about versatility—lightweight, premium, expressive, and easy to style. Mix it, match it, style it differently. Because keeping up with wedding season shouldn’t feel like a styling challenge.
Why should brides have all the fun?
