Lab-grown diamond ecosystem policy promotes domestic control, global branding, and incentives for rough diamond trading.
Lab-grown diamond sector development is directed toward Indian control of the full value chain, including machinery, production, jewellery, brands and overseas retail. Central and state-level policy support is contemplated to expand domestic capacity, exports and global market participation. Rough diamond trading companies operating in special notified zones are stated to receive a 15-year income-tax exemption, supporting the objective of establishing India as a rough diamond trading hub. Infrastructure, jewellery parks, stamp-duty waivers, affordable electricity, connectivity and free trade agreements are identified as supporting measures.
