India’s Gold Demand to Slow in 2025 as Soaring Prices Weigh on Jewellery Purchases, WGC Reports
Ease in 2025 as Record Prices Slow Jewellery Purchases, While Investment Interest Grows
India’s gold consumption is expected to moderate in 2025, following a record high in 2024, as surging prices dampen jewellery demand, although investment demand remains strong, according to the World Gold Council (WGC). The demand is projected to range between 700 and 800 metric tonnes, a drop from last year’s 802.8 tonnes—the highest level since 2015.
As gold prices rise, jewellery purchases tend to decrease, with consumers adjusting their budgets in response to the higher costs. Domestic gold prices recently hit a record high of Rs 84,399 ($968.62) per 10 grams, reflecting a 10% increase in 2025 after a 21% rise in 2024.
However, the surge in gold prices has bolstered investment demand, particularly in gold ETFs, digital gold, and coins and bars. Investment demand rose 29% in 2024, reaching an 11-year high of 239.4 tonnes, and is expected to continue growing in 2025.
Jewellery demand, which makes up nearly 70% of India’s total gold consumption, will likely be impacted by higher prices. Despite this, strong interest in gold as an investment is expected to persist.

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.

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.”
