Opportunities

Increasing middle class population is expected to drive growth in the future and is expected to lead to an increase in demand for gold. Also, Indias population is increasingly becoming urbanised, which is expected to boost household income, thereby leading to higher demand for gold and other jewellery. The jewellery demand is also increasing steadily due to changes in its role from just being an item of adornment and as a store of value to a lifestyle and fashion accessory. Rising quality awareness of customers has provided a fillip to the organized retail segment, which is banking on its reliability and quality to compete against the highly fragmented unorganized jewellers. The Gems and Jewellery sector is witnessing changes in consumer preferences due to adoption of western lifestyle.

The Government of India has also launched the Sovereign Gold Bond Scheme to reduce the countrys reliance on physical gold imports to meet the investment demand for gold by retail investors.

Some of the key challenges facing the retail jewellery industry are as follows:

(a) Adapting to fast changing consumer preferences and buying patterns
