What to watch
- Further weekly gold and silver gains, especially a sustained move above current record levels.
- Rupee depreciation versus the US dollar and changes in import-duty or hallmarking policy.
- Festival and wedding booking conversion, average ticket size, grams sold per invoice and old-gold exchange mix.
- Gold-loan rates, consumer EMI uptake and jewellery retailer inventory days.
- Making-charge discounting or promotional intensity among national chains and regional jewellers.
- Rebalance assortments toward lightweight collections, 18K/14K options where relevant, coins and lower entry-price designs.
- Expand old-gold exchange, gold-savings plans, EMI offers and transparent making-charge promotions to reduce sticker shock.
- Tighten bullion hedging and shorten replenishment cycles to limit inventory mark-to-market and working-capital volatility.
- Prioritise wedding bookings and advance-rate-lock programs before peak festive demand.
- Monitor franchisee and independent-store price gaps, which may widen as smaller players struggle to finance higher-value inventory.
