Gold import TRQ under India-UAE CEPA opens with 30 tonnes reserved for MSMEs

The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has notified the detailed procedure for allocation of Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) for gold imports under the India-UAE Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) for FY 2025-26.

As per the public notice issued on 17 December 2025, the current round of allocation will be restricted to 30 metric tonnes of gold. This first lot has been exclusively reserved for Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), with eligibility limited to entities holding valid BIS registration and GST identification. The maximum quantity that can be applied for is capped at 10 kg for Micro enterprises and 25 kg for Small enterprises.

The allocation will be carried out through a competitive e-auction process conducted on the MSTC portal. Interested bidders are required to submit both technical and financial bids within the prescribed timeline. DGFT clarified that gold dore imports will not be considered under this TRQ.

The TRQ authorisation issued by DGFT will allow successful bidders to avail concessional customs duty rates at the time of import from the UAE, in line with India’s commitments under the CEPA. The tentative schedule indicates that TRQ allocation and issuance of authorisations will be completed in the second week of January 2026.

DGFT also noted that any request to broaden eligibility beyond MSEs may be considered after review, given that a significant portion of the financial year has already elapsed.

Harit Zaveri Jewellers Celebrates A Bride’s Royal Spirit In An Indian Wedding With Its New Polki Collection

A Celebration Of Regal Femininity, Heirloom Craftsmanship, and The Refreshing Depth Of Emeralds.

June 2026 A bride’s jewellery is never merely ornamental, it carries sentiment, memory, and the quiet power of tradition. With its newest Polki Collection, Harit Zaveri Jewellers introduces a refined take on royal Indian bridal jewellery, thoughtfully designed for the modern bride who embraces heritage while expressing her individuality with confidence and grace.

Crafted between 18kt to 14kt gold and enriched by Emeralds, Harit Zaveri Jewellers Polki collection celebrates a bride in her most transformative moment – poised between reflection and becoming. Every jewellery piece in the collection is designed to accompany her through this pause.

At the heart of the collection lies the richness of polki craftsmanship – raw, uncut diamonds admired for their old-world charm and regal appeal, long associated with royal Indian heirlooms. Paired with vivid emeralds, known to symbolise renewal, harmony, love, and abundance, the collection brings together heritage and elegance. The richness of green emeralds adds depth and freshness, creating jewels that feel both classic and strikingly modern.

The collection features an expansive range of statement and versatile pieces including necklaces, kadas, rings, earrings, and bridal sets, thoughtfully embellished with emeralds, pearls, and polki detailing.

This collection from Harit Zaveri Jewellers compliments classic reds and heritage weaves to contemporary ivories, pastels, and couture silhouettes. Whether layered with a traditional lehenga, paired with a modern sari drape, or styled for intimate pre-wedding celebrations, these pieces seamlessly adapt while elevating every bridal look with a quiet majesty.

These pieces are envisioned as modern heirlooms, where meticulous craftsmanship, precious materials, and timeless artistry come together to create pieces worthy of being passed down through generations.

Harit Zaveri, Joint Managing Director at Harit Zaveri Jewellers said:

“At Harit Zaveri Jewellers, we have always believed bridal jewellery should feel personal, something that reflects a bride’s story and individuality. Many of our clients naturally gravitate towards one-of-a-kind pieces that resonate with their personality and become part of their memories for years to come. With this Polki collection, we wanted to celebrate craftsmanship with the richness of emeralds, a stone that beautifully complements a variety of bridal colours and effortlessly completes a look. Above all, quality remains at the heart of everything we create because we believe jewellery should feel as enduring as the memories and moments attached to it.”
