The Gems and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) Chairman Vipul Shah has said India's gems and jewellery exports are likely to decline by 10 to 15 per cent in the current financial year on account of slowing demand in key markets like the US and China. As per GJEPC, the gems and jewellery exports grew 2.48 per cent year-on-year to Rs 3,00,462.52 crore (over $36 billion) in FY23.
The GJEPC Chairman informed that the Commerce Ministry has given a target of $42 billion for the gems and jewellery segment exports in 2023-24. He said ‘For gems and jewellery, the major contributing market is the US and China, the demand is slowing there. Rising interest cost, inflation, all these concerns and consumers' confidence is also going down’.
Going ahead, on GJEPC estimates for the current fiscal ending March he said ‘we expect that overall we should see a 10 to 15 per cent decline in the gems and jewellery exports’. He added diamonds constitute more than 55 per cent of the overall gems and jewellery export basket.
