GJEPC & IIBX Connect with Chandigarh Jewellers on Bullion Strategies

GJEPC’s Delhi Regional Office, in association with the India International Bullion Exchange (IIBX) and the Chandigarh Sarrafa Association (CSA), organised an outreach session in Chandigarh on 17 December, aimed at strengthening jewellers’ understanding of bullion procurement and MSME support mechanisms.

The session underlined the reduction of the net worth requirement to ₹15 crore for accessing IIBX, making organised bullion sourcing more accessible for a wider base of jewellers. Participants were also briefed on gold price hedging strategies and the role of IIBX in bringing transparency and efficiency to bullion imports.

GJEPC officials highlighted export growth opportunities through Council initiatives and upcoming IIJS Bharat 2026, along with skill development via IIGJ. The programme drew participation from over 80 jewellers.

Anil Talwar, Chairman, CSA, thanked Mukesh Sharma, Head Business Development, IIBX; Mohit Kumar from the MSME Department; and Ashutosh Srivastava, Regional Director – North, GJEPC, and his team, for their insights and coordination.
