This bold vision of <strong>Hon&#8217;ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi<\/strong> will transform India\u2019s economic relations with the entire Gulf region and beyond, and will also reinvigorate Indian plain gold and studded jewellery exports to what is, by far, the largest consuming nation, accounting for 26% of gem &amp; jewellery exports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will pave way for raw material import at competitive price in India and provide free access for finished products to UAE market. The FTA will fast-track India\u2019s goal of reaching $52 billion in exports of gems and jewellery by 2022-23.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOn behalf of the entire Indian jewellery industry, I would like to express my gratitude to our <strong>Hon\u2019ble Prime Minster Shri Narendra Modi,<\/strong> for this remarkable strategic pact with UAE. The partnership will also enable Indian independent and chain-store retailers to export jewellery directly to UAE-based consumers\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vipul Shah, Vice Chairman, GJEPC <\/strong>said, \u201cHats off to our <strong>Hon\u2019ble Commerce &amp; Industry Minister Shri Piyush Goyal<\/strong> for strengthening the strategic partnership with UAE. As gem &amp; jewellery products are high-value items, any concession on the import duty in the consuming country, gives a huge head-start to our exporters. Jewellery exports to UAE will move to new heights in the near future and take us forward towards creating an Atmanirbhar Bharat for our sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>K Srinivasan, Convener, Jewellery Panel Committee, GJEPC <\/strong>said,\u201cFTA with UAE is a masterstroke by our Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. UAE already accounts for substantial share of our gem and jewellery exports from India. The FTA will help boost plain gold Jewellery exports to UAE in a big way. I would like to thank the Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi for creating this opportunity for the gem and Jewellery sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mahender Tayal, Regional Chairman (Southern Region),<\/strong> GJEPC said, \u201cThe FTA with UAE is definitely going to boost the overall exports from India to UAE. Especially, the Indian jewellery industry is going to benefit immensely with this pact. This would help to revive and boost gem and jewellery exports from India to the Gulf regions, to an estimated USD 10 billion exports annually.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nikhil Parekh, Director of Hasmukh Parekh Jewellers, Kolkata, said, \u201c<\/strong>With concession in duty levied by UAE on jewellery imported from India, the glorious days will come back and exports will see a quantum jump again.

India\u2019s FTA with UAE will increase the flow of Indian plain gold and studded jewellery exports to one of our largest markets. This is a win-win for both countries!
