India’s exports of gems & jewellery decline 5.32% to $30.96 billion in 2018-19

03 Jun 2019 Evaluate

The Gems and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) in its latest data showed that India’s exports of gems and jewellery declined by 5.32% to $30.96 billion in 2018-19, as compared to $32.7 billion in 2017-18. The decline in shipments was mainly due to negative growth in the export of silver jewellery, coloured gem stones, rough diamonds, gold medallions and coins. The sector contributes about 15% to the country's overall exports.

According to the GJEPC data, silver jewellery exports dipped by 75% to $837.81 million in 2018-19. But, exports of cut and polished diamonds marginally grew to $23.82 billion during the period under review.  Gold jewellery shipments increased by 24.4% to $12 billion during the period from $9.67 billion in 2017-18.

India's main export destinations are the US, Europe, Japan and China. America accounts for about one-fourth of the country's total gems and jewellery exports. Consignments worth $8.71 billion were returned during the last fiscal. On the other hands, imports of gems and jewellery also dipped 16.17% in 2018-19 to $26.4 billion. Imports of rough diamonds contracted 16.75%, while that of gold bar rose by 38.26% to $7.87 billion.
