RAPAPORT... The Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) has announced the results of the 2015 India Gem & Jewellery Awards, held in Jaipur and attended by several senior government officials including Piyush Goyal, the Minister of State for Power, Coal, New and Renewable Energy.

“I am glad to announce that we have received a phenomenal response this year with over 364 nominations – an increase of around 34 percent from last year – from all across India,” Praveenshankar Pandya, the GJEPC’s chairman, said in a statement March 14.

“It was important to celebrate their performance as it came amidst a declining world economy. India has more than 3 million artisans and craftsmen who have taken it to a leadership position in the diamond business.”
