Madhuri Dixit inaugurates 20000* sqft jewellery shopping destination for PNG Jewellers at Laxmi Road, Pune
Retail expansion in jewellery aligns with the consumer response in any given market. Phenomenal popularity and product demand call for unprecedented expansion, and one such instance was exhibited by PN Gadgil Jewellers, widely known for its commitment towards excellence across a legacy of 193 years of business and counting, with the launch of a new store besides renovation of its flagship showroom, both at Laxmi Road in Pune, on 23 March, 2025.
Catering to rising demand across all categories of gold, diamond, platinum, and colour gemstone jewellery in the Pune market, the two stores were jointly inaugurated by Bollywood diva Madhuri Dixit in the presence of Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, Chairman and Managing Director of PNG Jewellers; Mr. Parag Gadgil, and members of the PNG Jewellers family. The combined area of the two large-format stores now reach a staggering 20,000 sq. ft.*
Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, Chairman and Managing director of PNG Jewellers said, “Pune holds a special place in our hearts, as it is where our flagship store continues to stand as an example to our heritage and trust. Now, the brand has a total of 53 stores across the world. As we strive to strengthen our retail network further, this expansion brings us closer to our patrons, ensuring they have convenient access to the finest jewellery, steeped in tradition and craftsmanship. We look forward to serving the people of Pune with the same commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and trust.”
Ushering in a completely modern in-store experience while respecting Maharashtrian tradition, the renovated flagship showroom has been redesigned akin to heritage Wada courtyard houses intrinsic to the state. Exclusively retailing in gold jewellery of Kalkatti, temple, antique, and kundan designs, the flagship showroom specialises in bridal jewellery along with a dedicated wedding lounge replete with private make-up stations to give the brides-to-be the attention they deserve. The new 2-storey showroom, on the other hand, stands tall as a hub of the studded categories including diamond, platinum, uncut, polki, and precious colour gemstone jewellery. The expansion has now diversified the product range of PNG Jewellers by an impressive 30-40%, thus giving buyers across all categories better options for an immersive and satisfying shopping experience.
Commenting on the continuing legacy of the brand, ambassador and Bollywood superstar Madhuri Dixit said, “It is a privilege to be a part of this historic event with PNG Jewellers, a company known for its excellence and tradition. Their commitment to preserving tradition while embracing modern designs truly sets PNG Jewellers apart. PNG has always stood for trust, tradition, and timeless craftsmanship.”
The new store of PNG Jewellers is located 500 meters away from their flagship store, and has rolled out exclusive offers such as 0% deduction on old gold exchange, up to 40% off on gold jewellery-making charges, and up to 100% off on diamond jewellery-making charges respectively to celebrate the grand inauguration.

Treasures By Tiara Unveils Mumbai Flagship and Café Concept At Cumballa Hill
New Destination Blends Fine Jewellery, Hospitality and Experiential Retail, Reflecting The Evolving Face Of Luxury Shopping
Treasures by Tiara has expanded its presence in Mumbai with the launch of its new flagship store and The Treasures Café at Cumballa Hill, introducing a distinctive retail concept that combines fine jewellery with a curated café experience.
Founded by Tiara Dhody, the brand has designed the space as more than a traditional jewellery showroom. The flagship aims to offer visitors a slower, more immersive retail journey, where customers can engage with jewellery in a relaxed environment rather than through conventional display counters.
The launch was marked by an intimate evening gathering attended by celebrities, industry guests and well-wishers. Designed with soft golden lighting, antique silver accents, rich textures and thoughtfully curated interiors, the space creates an atmosphere that feels elegant, personal and inviting. Jewellery pieces are integrated throughout the café and retail environment, encouraging visitors to discover collections organically as they move through the space.
At the heart of the concept is The Treasures Café, which offers a menu featuring sourdough sandwiches, pancakes, specialty coffees and signature beverages. The café has been envisioned as an extension of the brand experience, allowing customers to spend time exploring collections at their own pace while enjoying a comfortable and welcoming setting.
The launch reflects a broader transformation taking place across the luxury retail landscape. Increasingly, consumers are seeking experiences that go beyond transactions, favouring environments that foster deeper engagement with brands. In the jewellery sector, where purchases are often highly personal and considered, such experiential formats are gaining relevance.
Known for its silver jewellery adorned with precious stones, Treasures by Tiara offers a diverse portfolio that includes rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, cuffs and cufflinks for both men and women. The brand has also expanded into fashion accessories, including gloves and corsets, further strengthening its design-led identity.
Having previously showcased its creations at London Fashion Week, the brand has steadily built a growing clientele in Mumbai and beyond. The opening of the Cumballa Hill flagship marks an important milestone in its growth journey, bringing together jewellery, hospitality and design under one roof and offering a fresh perspective on contemporary luxury retail.
