India's Gem and Jewellery Exports Rise 9.43% to $2.95 Billion in September 2026
India's gem and jewellery exports rose 9.43% year-on-year to USD 2.95 billion in September 2026, driven by a 50% surge in studded gold jewellery exports amid an uncertain global trade environment. The first half of FY27 saw a 3.07% increase in overall exports to USD 14.30 billion. Growth benefited from improved trade access via the India-UK agreement, reduced US tariffs, and strong demand in markets like Hong Kong, Singapore, and France, despite challenges from rising gold prices and pressure on cut and polished diamond exports.
