16 Jul 2019 Evaluate

The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council in its latest data has showed that exports of gems & jewellery continued to face headwinds with June shipments plunging 16.26% due to the renewed bout of US-China trade wars. Gems & jewellery exports decreased to $2.82 billion in June 2019 from $3.37 billion in June 2018. On a quarterly basis, exports declined 10.38% to $9.18 billion in the April-June period of current year compared to $10.25 billion during the same period last year.

According to the data, gold jewellery exports declined 15.41% to $913.88 million from $1.08 billion in June 2018, while during the first quarter, the same dipped 6.22% to $3.03 billion from $3.23 billion. Cut and polished diamond exports declined 19.38% to $1.68 billion from $2.08 billion in June, while the same plunged 17.33% to $5.20 billion in the June quarter from $6.29 billion.

The council’s vice-chairman Colin Shah stated that the continuing trade wars between the world’s two largest economies have subdued Chinese demand, which is the second-largest market for India’s cut and polished diamonds. He also said the US-China trade wars have impacted demand for loose diamonds from China. The issue has also led to slowing demand from the US which otherwise has been steady. Besides, lack of stocks also affected manufacturing, impacting exports.
