PNG Launches YOOU, A Lightweight Diamond Jewellery Brand Reflecting The Evolving Identities Of Modern Women
Built On PNG Jewellers’ Legacy Of Trust, YOOU Redefines Lightweight Diamond Jewellery With A Renewed Focus On Individuality, Self-Expression and Everyday Luxury.
PNG Jewellers has announced the rebranding of its lightweight diamond jewellery brand, Litestyle, as YOOU, marking a significant step in the brand’s evolution. The transformation reflects a renewed vision to create jewellery that celebrates individuality, confidence and self-expression. Rooted in PNG Jewellers’ legacy of trust and craftsmanship since 1832, YOOU personifies women who view jewellery not just as an accessory for occasions, but as an extension of their personality and everyday life.
Launched to bridge the gap between traditional jewellery and contemporary everyday wear, YOOU specialises in lightweight diamond jewellery for consumer preferences evolved towards more expressive, design-led pieces, thus creating a brand that resonates more deeply with today’s women. The transition to YOOU reflects this evolution, placing the wearer at the centre of every design philosophy while retaining the quality, purity and craftsmanship that customers have come to associate with PNG Jewellers.
As a contemporary diamond jewellery brand, YOOU offers lightweight designs across 14, 18, 22, and 9 karat gold. Every collection is designed to seamlessly fit into modern lifestyles, offering versatile rings, earrings, chains, pendants, bracelets, bangles, mangalsutras and men’s jewellery that can be worn from the workplace to social occasions. With a presence across 13 EBO locations in shop-in Maharashtra and Goa, YOOU aims to become India’s preferred destination for lightweight diamond jewellery and targets to open 100 new stores (in SIS and EBO format) by 2030.
Sara Tendulkar, Brand Ambassador, YOOU by PNG Jewellers, said:

“Jewellery today is about expressing who you are rather than waiting for a special occasion. What I love about YOOU is that it encourages women to celebrate themselves every single day through designs that are contemporary, effortless and deeply personal. It is a brand that truly reflects the confidence and individuality of today’s generation. You don’t need an occasion to shine. You are the occasion! Welcome to YOOU!“
Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, Chairman and Managing Director, PNG Jewellers, said:
“With YOOU, we are taking that journey forward by creating a brand that speaks directly to today’s woman and her aspirations. Every design has been created to complement her everyday life while carrying forward PNG Jewellers’ enduring promise of trust, purity and craftsmanship. Customers can expect more innovation, more contemporary collections and a jewellery experience that is deeply personal.”

Kalyan Jewellers Unveils Akshaya Thanga Maligai (ATM) As Its First Regional Brand; Sivakarthikeyan Named Brand Ambassador
First Showroom To Open At Panagal Park, T Nagar, Chennai On August 21; Company To Scale To 5 Stores In The State This Year.
Kalyan Jewellers India Limited (NSE: KALYANKJIL, BSE: 543278) today unveiled the name, identity and go-to-market plan for its regional jewellery brand – Akshaya Thanga Maligai (ATM) – with Tamil Nadu as its market. The company had flagged its intent to enter the regional/mass jewellery segment as a distinct growth engine, alongside Kalyan and Candere, in earlier conversations; today’s announcement is the first time the brand’s name, positioning and launch market have been made public.


ATM will open its first showroom at Panagal Park, T Nagar, Chennai’s most prominent jewellery retail catchment, on August 21, 2026. A teaser campaign has already begun in the market, and the company has signed Tamil film actor Sivakarthikeyan as brand ambassador, a move aimed at building rapid recall for a new-to-market name in a category where trust and local affinity drive purchase decisions.
The launch expands KJIL’s addressable market by enabling the company to participate in customer segments that exhibit a strong preference for locally positioned jewellery brands, while complementing the existing Kalyan and Candere formats.
Unlike Kalyan’s pan-India format, ATM has been built ground-up for a single state. The company said inventory will be curated specifically for Tamil Nadu preferences with designs, weights and price points aligned to regional occasions and buying patterns, thus positioning ATM to compete directly with entrenched regional jewellery chains rather than Kalyan’s own store network.
Ramesh Kalyanaraman, Executive Director, Kalyan Jewellers India Limited, said:

“Akshaya Thanga Maligai reflects our belief that regional markets offer significant long-term growth opportunities when approached with a truly local proposition. Tamil Nadu is one of India’s largest and most evolved jewellery markets, making it the natural choice for our first regional brand. By combining a distinctly Tamil identity with Kalyan Jewellers’ sourcing capabilities, quality standards and customer-first approach, we believe ATM is well positioned to build meaningful scale across the state through our franchise-led expansion model.”
The company intends to establish the concept in Tamil Nadu before evaluating similar regional formats in other markets.
