Hari Krishna Exports Celebrates 33 Years of Purpose: Honouring Customers with a 1.33% Special Offer and 1,022 Lifesaving Blood Donations
Hari Krishna Exports marked a remarkable milestone: 33 years of dedication to excellence, integrity, and responsibility. Beyond another anniversary, this occasion served as a tribute to the values that have guided the organisation since its inception and to the many individuals who have been a part of this journey: clients, employees, partners, and well-wishers alike. And as a token of gratitude to our exclusive clients we did offer 1.33% off on every diamond purchase.
The celebrations this year carried a tone of gratitude and purpose. Across the company’s Mumbai and Surat units, the day began with a blood donation drive that collected 1,022 units, adding to a total of 21,404 bottles donated since the program began. Eye check-up camps were also organised. Everyone supporting this noble cause was warmly welcomed and appreciated. Dr. Himanshu Mehta, Viren Shah – President, NSCI, Hiten Anandpara, and Sanjay Pandya attended as distinguished chief guests, along with prominent dignitaries from the Gems and Jewellery Industry.
The event was followed by a heartfelt recognition ceremony, honouring 68 team members who have been part of the organisation for over 20 years at the Surat and Mumbai state-of-the-art facilities. It was a reminder that behind every achievement lies the dedication of countless hands and hearts.
“We organise blood donation on the 1st anniversary of every Kisna franchise store and have a long term vision of organising blood donation drives every week.”
“We have always believed that a company’s true strength comes from the lives it touched.” said Ghanshyam Dholakia, Founder and Managing Director of Hari Krishna Exports. “This milestone belongs to every team member, every donor, and every well-wisher who supported us with faith and dedication”, he added.
However, the day’s significance extended far beyond its activities. It was a reflection of the larger story that Hari Krishna Exports has quietly written over three decades, a story of going beyond business to make a lasting impact.
Hari Krishna Exports expresses heartfelt gratitude to every stakeholder: clients, team members, partners, and well-wishers who have stood by the company through this journey towards being a polished leader in the diamond manufacturing industry. Their faith and support have been instrumental in making every initiative a reality.
As Hari Krishna Exports marks the completion of its 33rd year, it does so with renewed purpose and a deepened commitment to collective progress. Because the journey toward sustainability, shared progress, and collective growth is only just beginning.

Aisshpra Gems & Jewels Opens Four Stores in One Day, Takes Network to 20; Targets 30 Stores by March 2028
Four franchise showrooms add approximately 12,000 sq. ft. of retail space, taking the brand’s total retail footprint beyond 90,000 sq. ft.; Bettiah marks its entry into Bihar.
Aisshpra Gems & Jewels, the jewellery retail brand established in Gorakhpur in 1940, today announced the simultaneous opening of four showrooms in Bahraich, Bettiah, Lucknow and Mirzapur. The milestone takes its operational network from 16 to 20 stores in a single day, with three more stores under construction and a target of 30 operational stores by March 2028.
Each new franchise-operated showroom measures approximately 3,000 sq. ft. Together, the openings add around 12,000 sq. ft. of retail space and take the brand’s overall retail footprint to more than 90,000 sq. ft. The Bettiah opening is Aisshpra’s first in Bihar, where Siwan and Gopalganj are also in its expansion pipeline. The Lucknow launch marks its third showroom in the city.
Jewel Story takes centre stage across all four stores
All four showrooms feature a dedicated store-in-store presence for Jewel Story, Aisshpra’s lifestyle jewellery brand. Designed for teenagers, young adults and customers up to around 40 years of age, Jewel Story focuses on lightweight, wearable, modern jewellery across 9KT to 22KT gold purity. The concept seeks to make jewellery relevant to everyday personal style, alongside Aisshpra’s traditional, bridal and occasion-wear collections.
Leadership on expansion and legacy
Atul Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems & Jewels
“Since 1940, our most important achievement has been the trust we have earned across generations. Opening four stores together is a proud milestone, and every new showroom brings the responsibility of preserving that trust.”
Anoop Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems & Jewels
“As we enter new markets, Trust, Integrity and Ethics remain our guiding principles. We want customers in every city to experience the same transparency, quality and care that have defined Aisshpra for decades.”
Vaibhav Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems & Jewels
“Moving from 16 to 20 stores in one day is a major jump in our network. Our footprint now exceeds 90,000 sq. ft., three additional stores are under construction, and we are working towards 30 stores by March 2028. Bettiah opens the door to Bihar, while our third Lucknow showroom deepens our presence in a key market.”
Saumitra Saraf, Director, Aisshpra Gems & Jewels
“Younger customers increasingly want jewellery that feels contemporary, versatile and easy to wear. Jewel Story brings that proposition to every new showroom, with modern designs spanning 9KT to 22KT.”
Inauguration celebrations and opening offers
The celebrations featured Mouni Roy in Lucknow, Adah Sharma in Bahraich and Ayesha Khan in Mirzapur. The Bettiah inauguration took place in the presence of local dignitaries.
Customers can avail inaugural offers of up to 30% off gold jewellery making charges and diamond value, subject to applicable terms and conditions. Offer validity is to be confirmed.
