The Company continues to stimulate consumer demand through innovative strategies to counter the general economic slowdown as well as the impact of recent regulatory measures introduced in the financing of gold imports.”

The Company organized a first-of-their-kind summer camps on “Jewellery Education for Women” in all its 26 stores across India.
