We are constantly innovating and bring freshness to IIJS PREMIER. This year we are presenting the SELECT CLUB at JWCC with over 100 participants. Also, we have revamped all the booths – these are of the highest quality and will provide a great fresh look. A lot of effort goes into making IIJS a truly premium show.

IIJS PREMIER 2024 will feature 3700 booths and 2200 plus exhibitors.  We expect a 10% higher visitor turnout as compared to last year. The IGJME is the biggest machinery expo, featuring the best in manufacturing technology. Speaking of machinery, we at GJEPC are working on a high end machinery cum technology expo and symposium.

ESG and sustainability

ESG and sustainability are embedded in the value system of GJEPC and IIJS Premier. Our various initiatives include a mega tree plantation drive in which we have planted 150,000 trees last year and another 150,000 trees this year.In the next 5-10 years we would have planted a million trees.

To prevent usage of plastic and paper, we have done away with badges. Just like DigiYatra, one’s face scan will provide access to IIJS.We also removed tissues/ hand wipes from bathroom and eliminated flex boards. It is pertinent to note that IIJS PREMIER runs on green energy.

Revenue Generation

There is a y-o-y increase in revenue generated at IIJS PREMIER. Approximately Rs 2 lakh crore worth of business will be transacted across GJEPCs three show with IIJS PREMIER accounting for 1.25lakh cr.

Global recognition

IIJS PREMIER is a show that is recognized and respected in the global GJ industry. Global retail chains including visit IIJS .It is the no. 2 show in the world – and in fact the top show in terms of number of visitors. I see top global players exhibiting at IIJS and the global retail sector coming to IIJS for all their sourcing needs.

I see the next 10 years as the golden era for Indian jewellery. And, GJEPC, IIJS will be the foremost authorities in the global GJ scenario.

International Women’s Day 2026 has prompted jewellery brands across India to launch campaigns that celebrate women’s empowerment, individuality, and personal achievements. Moving beyond traditional gifting narratives, many brands are positioning jewellery as a symbol of self-expression and personal milestones, reflecting the evolving role of women as independent buyers in the jewellery market.

Kumari Fine Jewellery

Mumbai-based Kumari Fine Jewellery has introduced a Women’s Day showcase themed around the idea of the “Modern Indian Original.” The initiative focuses on financially independent women who mark their achievements with self-purchased jewellery. The showcase highlights lightweight gold pieces designed for everyday wear, reinforcing jewellery as both a style statement and a symbol of personal growth.

Dhirsons Jewellers

Delhi’s Dhirsons Jewellers has launched a campaign centred on celebrating milestones in a woman’s journey rather than traditional occasions. The initiative encourages women to recognise defining moments in their lives, positioning jewellery as a reflection of resilience, confidence, and self-belief.
