Indian Jewellery market has grown from $50b to $80bn in 6 years: Motilal Oswal
Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd (MOFSL) suggest that the size of the Indian jewellery retail sector was close to USD80bn (INR6,400b) in FY24.

Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd (MOFSL) suggest that the size of the Indian jewellery retail sector was close to USD80bn (INR6,400b) in FY24.There are multiple drivers in the industry leading to such rapid growth, driven by rising disposable income (higher per capita growth in double digits), an improving mix for regular wear (beyond weddings and investment-led), enhanced product offerings (design, diamonds, etc.), trust-building through hallmarking, and a better buying experience at organized retail outlets Within this landscape, organized retail accounted for about 36-38% and comprised both pan-India and regional players.
The remainder of the jewellery retail sector continued to be dominated by the unorganized/local players, comprising over 500,000 local goldsmiths and jewelers. The total gold consumption in India was attributed to 66% for jewellery and remaining 34% for bars & coins.
India’s gold supply is dominated by imports
The gold market experienced notable fluctuations in imports from FY18 to FY20, reaching 980 tonnes in FY19 before declining to 720 tonnes in FY20. This volatility was led by various factors, including declines in global gold prices, buoyant economic conditions leading to heightened disposable incomes, and substantial demand for gold due to traditional celebrations and weddings. However, in FY20, a significant drop occurred due to escalating import duties and the initial stages of an economic slowdown.

Gold consumption patterns in India
Jewellery for occasions
Weddings and festivals are the primary reasons for the purchase of jewellery in India. Bridal jewellery still accounts for a significant portion of demand, contributing 55% to the total jewellery demand. Daily wear jewellery accounts for 30-35% of the Indian jewellery market. Players are strategically focusing on manufacturing lightweight pieces to cater to the preferences of younger consumers, especially those who desire daily wear gold jewellery that complements western-style attire. Fashion jewellery, on the other hand, contributes nearly 10% to the Indian jewellery market.
Jewellery by product category
Bangles and chains are the primary contributors to domestic jewellery consumption, accounting for 60-70% of total sales. These are preferred as daily wear by women. Necklaces contribute around 15-20% to the sales volume, with their sales surging during special occasions, such as festivals and weddings. The remaining 5-15% of sales is attributed to rings and earrings.
