- Tanishq promotional changes in making charges, exchange bonuses, gold-rate protection or online-exclusive offers.
- Rupee depreciation, import-duty/tax developments, or a bullion rebound that interrupts retail-rate cuts.
- Festive and wedding-season footfall data, booking volumes and lightweight-jewellery mix shifts.
