India possesses the world’s most competitive gems and jewellery market due to its low cost of production and availability of skilled labour. According to Research and Markets’ new report, highly skilled and low cost manpower, along with strong government support in the form of incentives and establishment of SEZs, have been the major drivers for the Indian gems and jewellery market. Presently, although, Indian market is highly fragmented, it is rapidly transforming into an organised sector.
