Hari Krishna Exports Honoured with Environmental Stewardship Award at JWA Hong Kong 2025
HK Share Sustainability Insights and receive the award at Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong
Hari Krishna Exports Pvt. Ltd., a global leader in natural diamond manufacturing and sustainable innovation, was honoured with the Environmental Stewardship Award at the prestigious Jewellery World Awards (JWA) 2025, held during Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong.
This accolade recognizes the company’s far-reaching contributions to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Life Below Water and Life On Land, and marks a continued legacy of excellence following its Jury’s Special Recognition Award for Environmental Stewardship at JWA 2024.
At the heart of this recognition is the work of the Dholakia Foundation, the philanthropic wing of Hari Krishna Exports. Through transformative initiatives like Mission River, the foundation has revived over 164 lakes and rivers, conserved more than 36 billion liters of water, and boosted irrigation and biodiversity across drought-prone regions in Gujarat.
Meanwhile, Mission 102030 has already seen the plantation of 3.6 million trees, creating vital micro-habitats, green corridors, and carbon sinks. These ecological efforts have directly improved livelihoods and reversed migration trends in rural communities, positively impacting over 250,000 farmers and villagers.
The award specifically highlighted the foundation’s restoration of freshwater ecosystems such as Bharatmata Sarovar, Kalwa River, and Saraswati River—now thriving sanctuaries that support migratory bird species, including Painted Storks and Herons.
Accepting the award at the JWA 2025 ceremony were Ghanshyam Dholakia, Founder and Managing Director of Hari Krishna Exports; Hasu Dholakia of the second generation; and Mukesh Dholakia, Head of H.K. Impex (Hong Kong). Also present were Rajesh Dholakia and Brijesh Dholakia, representing the second generation of the family.
“My father always said, keep two things in business: honesty and hard work. At Hari Krishna Exports, we live by those values every single day. Whether it’s serving meals to our 9,000 family members or reviving ecosystems, every diamond we craft reflects our care for the planet. When we honour the Earth, happiness shines through in the final product,” said Ghanshyam Dholakia, Founder & MD.

Precious Metals Bounce Back As Iran Ceasefire Hopes Rise, But Fed Rate Fears Loom: AUGMONT BULLION REPORT
Gold Remains Under Short-term Pressure from Expectations of Fed Tightening and a Strong Dollar. However, Investor Positioning in Gold Looks Relatively Light After Months of ETF Outflows.
Price Movement – Gold has bounced back from its key support levels near $3960, and Silver has recovered from $55, after an Iranian official reportedly received a proposal for a 10-day ceasefire. The continuing US-Iran standoff has kept investors worried about energy-driven inflation and the possibility of further rate hikes. Markets are now pricing in an 83% chance of a US rate hike in December, up sharply from 73% just a week earlier, based on the CME FedWatch tool.
Geopolitical Tensions – Despite the Houthis announcing fresh military action, both Tehran and Washington appear keen to restart talks and stop the escalating attacks that have nearly destroyed a fragile interim agreement reached last month. A senior Iranian official told Reuters on Monday that mediators had proposed a 10-day ceasefire, aimed at rescuing the interim deal and eventually leading to a lasting peace agreement.
Macro-Economic Signals – Gold remains under short-term pressure from expectations of Fed tightening and a strong dollar. However, investor positioning in gold looks relatively light after months of ETF outflows, meaning further price drops may be limited. Strong physical demand, especially from China, along with continued central bank buying, is providing solid support to the gold market.
Technical Triggers
If Gold fails to hold above $4,000 (~Rs.1,41,000), it could slide further to $3,900 (~Rs.1,38,000). But if it manages to stay above $4,200, a fresh rally could take it toward $4,500 (~Rs.1,55,000).
For Silver, a strong move above $63 (~Rs.2,35,000) could push prices toward $70–71 (~Rs.2,51,000–2,55,000). On the other hand, a fall below $55 (~Rs.2,14,000) may drag it down to $50 (~Rs.2,00,000).
