India–Oman CEPA to Provide Zero Duty Access for Gems & Jewellery; GJEPC Sees Exports Rising to USD 150 Million

Published

on

The India–Oman Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), which abolishes customs duty on imports of gems and jewellery in Oman from India, is expected to significantly boost India’s exports to Oman and strengthen direct trade linkages between the two countries, according to the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC).

India’s gem and jewellery exports to Oman currently stand at USD 35 million (2024). With duty-free access under the CEPA, GJEPC estimates exports could rise to USD 150 million over the next three years, driven by improved price competitiveness, expanded product offerings, and deeper industry collaboration.

Kirit Bhansali, Chairman, GJEPC, said, “The India–Oman CEPA is a key enabler for strengthening direct trade ties and expanding India’s gem and jewellery exports to Oman. Zero duty access will significantly improve competitiveness for Indian exporters and encourage direct sourcing. We see strong growth opportunities for polished diamonds and gold jewellery, along with emerging demand for silver, platinum and imitation jewellery. With this framework, exports to Oman can scale from USD 35 million to around USD 150 million over the next three years.”

India is already Oman’s largest supplier of gold jewellery, particularly 22-carat wedding and traditional designs, with exports recording a strong growth of 80.11% in 2024–25, reflecting deep trust in Indian craftsmanship.

The CEPA is also expected to support Make in India by encouraging manufacturing, design collaboration, and investment partnerships. Oman’s strengths in traditional silver jewellery, combined with India’s scale, technology, and skilled workforce, present opportunities for joint product development and value-added manufacturing.

With Oman’s strategic location and stable business environment, the CEPA also positions the country as a potential gateway for Indian jewellery exports to the GCC, Africa and neighbouring regions, enhancing trade efficiency and regional market access.

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.”
