GJC Proposes Digitally Enabled Revamp of Gold Monetisation Scheme with RBI and Finance Ministry

The All India Gem and Jewellery Domestic Council (GJC) is engaging with the Reserve Bank of India and the Finance Ministry to propose a comprehensive revamp of the Gold Monetisation Scheme (GMS). The refined framework integrates jewellers into a regulated, digitally enabled ecosystem that converts physical gold into dematerialised gold balances within the banking system. This aims to improve transparency, increase adoption, enable returns on idle gold, reduce import reliance, and enhance market efficiency while complying with existing regulatory standards.
