Platinum Jewellery Sparkles as the Modern Choice for Akshaya Tritiya
Symbolising purity, strength, and timeless elegance, platinum emerges as a popular pick for celebrating prosperity and new beginnings this festive season.
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.

GJC lauds GST 2.0, says it is landmark reform that ushers in a new era of trust, transparency, for GJ sector
It reflects the government’s commitment to ease of doing business and provides jewellers with the confidence to focus on growth, innovation, and customer service.
Rajesh Rokde, Chairman -GJC issued a statement on The 57th GST Council recommendation. Which included a series of measures to simplify tax administration, accelerate refunds and reduce compliance costs, with potential benefits for India’s gem and jewellery manufacturers, exporters, wholesalers and retailers.
The statement read:
GST 2.0 is a landmark reform that ushers in a new era of trust, transparency, and efficiency for the gems and jewellery sector. It reflects the government’s commitment to ease of doing business and provides jewellers with the confidence to focus on growth, innovation, and customer service.
These progressive steps will strengthen industry credibility, safeguard livelihoods, and contribute to sustainable development across India. The Council’s recommendations comprehensively address areas that jewellers have long sought reform in — from smoother movement of goods in transit and faster automated refunds that improve cash flow, to fairer notices that reduce litigation and ensure natural justice.
The rationalization of penalties, reduction of the general penalty cap, and recognition of employee insurance ITC reflect a balanced approach that values both compliance and care for our workforce. Most importantly, the withdrawal of arrest powers and the increase in prosecution thresholds will instill greater trust and confidence across the trade.
Together, these measures will reduce disruption, improve working capital, safeguard livelihoods, and create a more supportive business environment. GJC wholeheartedly welcomes GST 2.0 as a forward-looking framework that empowers jewellers, enhances industry credibility, and contributes to sustainable growth for one of India’s most vital sectors
