Gems and Jewellery Exports Decline in FY25
Aaj kal, India’s gems and jewellery exports mein thodi kami dekhne ko mili hai. Overall exports declined by 11.72% to $28.5 billion (around Rs 2.41 lakh crore) in 2024-25 compared to the previous financial year. Yeh data Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) se aaya hai.
Global Tensions and Market Impact
Is decline ki main wajah global tensions aur key markets jaise US and China mein demand ka kam hona hai. Experts ka kehna hai ki rough diamond prices mein 10-15% ki correction ne bhi exports ki value ko impact kiya hai.
