As India prepares to celebrate Akshaya Tritiya on April 30, a festival known for ushering in prosperity and fresh starts, many are turning to platinum jewellery to mark the occasion with meaning and style.

Traditionally seen as a time to invest in gold and other symbols of wealth, Akshaya Tritiya is now witnessing a shift as contemporary consumers seek out choices that reflect both heritage and modern values. Platinum — with its naturally white sheen, 95% purity, and resistance to tarnish — is being embraced as a powerful emblem of enduring wealth and spiritual purity.

Reflecting the timeless essence of the festival, platinum jewellery is available in a variety of collections designed to resonate with today’s lifestyle. Women can explore graceful, modern designs through Platinum Evara, men can find strength and character in Men of Platinum, and couples can celebrate their bond with Platinum Love Bands, crafted to honour life’s significant milestones.

Each piece bears the hallmark “Pt 950,” certifying its high purity and enduring value. As a metal that stands the test of time, platinum offers more than just visual appeal — it embodies the lasting emotional and material richness that Akshaya Tritiya represents.

With its blend of tradition and innovation, platinum jewellery continues to shine as a meaningful and lasting way to celebrate this auspicious day — a gift of love, resilience, and prosperity to treasure for generations.

India’s Natural Diamonds Exports Lead In Value As Polished LGD Exports Overtake In Volume

Natural Diamonds Continued To Dominate In Overall Export Value Due To Their Substantially Higher Price Realization Per Carat.

India’s export volume of polished lab growns has overtaken that of natural diamonds for the first time.India’s diamond export industry has crossed a historic threshold, with the volume of polished lab-grown diamonds surpassing natural diamonds for the first time. However, a massive pricing disparity ensures that mined gems still command the financial throne.

According to newly released data from the GJEPC for the fiscal year ending March 2026, lab-grown exports surged by nearly 31% to reach 18.84 million carats. Conversely, natural diamond exports contracted by roughly 4%, slipping to 16.00 million carats.

During the fiscal period, natural diamonds accounted for an export volume of 16.00 million carats, with an average price of $760 per carat, generating total fiscal revenue of $12.16 billion. In comparison, lab-grown diamonds recorded a higher export volume of 18.84 million carats; however, with an average price of only $60 per carat, they generated significantly lower total fiscal revenue of US$1.13 billion. While lab-grown diamonds surpassed natural diamonds in volume terms, natural diamonds continued to dominate in overall export value due to their substantially higher price realization per carat.

Despite the revenue gap, the volume flip highlights an astronomical growth trajectory; a decade ago, in fiscal 2015-16, India exported a mere 10,000 carats of lab-grown diamonds. Early data for April 2026 indicates this trend is locking in, with lab-grown volumes edging past naturals at 1.36 million carats to 1.34 million carats, respectively.
