Indian gem & jewellery industry, like the rest of the world, is trying to analyse the evolving global economic landscape due to the reciprocal tariff announcement by USA on countries worldwide. The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) though understands the U.S. administration’s intent to address trade and tariff imbalances through reciprocal tariffs, however urges the U.S. to uphold the spirit of the longstanding trade partnership between India and the United States, which has been built on mutual respect and shared economic interests

On April 3, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump introduced a bold set of reciprocal tariffs during his “Liberation Day” rally. Under this new trade policy, a flat 10% tariff will be imposed on all imports, with additional tariffs varying based on how much each country levies on U.S. goods. This move aims to address trade imbalances and promote fairness in global commerce

The All India Gem & Jewellery Domestic Council (GJC) plays a pivotal role in shaping India’s jewellery industry through advocacy, development, and initiatives like the GJS. A key highlight of GJS is MindSpeak, a seminar series fostering discussions on industry challenges, innovations, and policy recommendations. Mr Ashok Minawala, Past Chairman of GJC and Convener of GJS MindSpeak has been instrumental in driving this initiative. With his leadership, MindSpeak has become a platform where industry experts collaborate, exchange ideas, and create actionable insights, ensuring continuous progress for jewellers across India.
