India’s gems and jewellery industry is poised for substantial growth, with projections indicating a market value of USD 168.62 billion by 2030, according to a recent report by Research and Markets. The report, India Gems and Jewelry Market, By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2020-2030F, highlights an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.93%, which is driving the industry’s rapid expansion.

Jewellery holds immense cultural significance in India, where it is regarded not only as a symbol of tradition but also as a valuable financial asset. The wedding sector remains the largest demand driver, accounting for nearly half of total market sales, with festivals like Diwali and Akshaya Tritiya also playing a vital role in bolstering gold and jewellery purchases as symbols of prosperity.

Despite this growth, the market faces challenges such as fluctuating gold prices and high import costs for materials like diamonds and platinum. The sector’s dependence on imports makes it vulnerable to global economic shifts and geopolitical uncertainties. Additionally, regulatory policies and import duties continue to impact the industry’s dynamics.

Consumer preferences are shifting, with younger buyers and working professionals increasingly opting for lightweight and contemporary jewellery designs. There is a growing demand for 14K and 18K gold pieces, which reflects a trend toward practicality and modernity. This shift is driving innovations that blend traditional craftsmanship with current design trends.

As India’s jewellery sector remains led by established players like Rajesh Exports Limited, Malabar Gold Private Limited, Titan Company Limited, and Kalyan Jewellers India Limited, the industry is expected to continue its upward growth trajectory, reinforcing India’s position as a global leader in the gems and jewellery manufacturing and export market.

Gold broke through the key $3,000 barrier on Friday for the first time as investors piled on to a historic rally in the safe-haven asset to seek cover from economic uncertainty sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff war.

The moment gold investors had long anticipated and many experts had long predicted finally arrived on March 14, when the price of gold broke a landmark price record of $3,000 per ounce. Officially at $3,001.08 as of Friday morning, according to American Hartford Gold, the record price is the latest in a series of highs the precious metal has seen over the past 14 months. And there are strong indications that the price will rise even higher. Priced at just $2,063.73 in January 2024, the metal has gained around $1,000 in price and risen 45% in value, making it one of the hottest assets to invest in right now.

Meanwhile, gold stocks in COMEX-approved warehouses hit a record 40.56 million ounces, as traders rushed to cover positions amid tariff uncertainty. But inflows have slowed in recent weeks.

Investor demand for gold is surging, with physically-backed gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recording their largest weekly inflow since March 2022, according to the World Gold Council’s February data.

The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), the world’s largest gold-backed ETF, saw holdings rise to 907.82 metric tons on February 25, the highest since August 2023. [GOL/ETF]
