Today, that definition is being quietly but decisively rewritten. With 86% of Indians now viewing gold and jewellery as a core wealth asset—almost on par with stocks and mutual funds—the country is witnessing a mindset shift where adornment meets asset-building. Jewellery is no longer just about sentiment; it’s strategy."},{"text":"What’s striking is who is driving this change. While older buyers still lean toward gold as a safe investment, Gen Z and millennials are reshaping the market by demanding versatility, lighter designs, and everyday relevance. Silver and platinum are no longer “second choices”—they’re deliberate picks, especially among younger consumers who want affordable luxury that fits daily life, not just festive calendars. Jewellery is becoming wearable wealth: repeatable, flexible, and expressive."},{"text":"The Deloitte India report makes one thing clear: tradition hasn’t disappeared—it’s being modernised. Purchases are moving beyond weddings to birthdays, promotions, anniversaries, and self-reward moments. Rings, chains, and minimalist pieces are outpacing heavy sets, signalling a consumer who wants liquidity, style, and identity rolled into one."},{"text":"For the industry, this is both an opportunity and a warning. As Praveen Govindu notes, the next decade will belong to brands that balance trust with agility—honouring legacy while embracing data, design, and omnichannel experiences. In short, India hasn’t fallen out of love with jewellery. It has simply started asking more from it."}]}}},"relatedArticles":{"edges":[{"node":{"uid":"brs-student-wing-stages-protest-over-mp-suryas-remarks","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"BRS student wing stages protest over MP Surya’s remarks"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/aeIG9Z1ZCF7ETSSI_BRSStudentwing.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-17T08:10:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"gautam-adani-becomes-asias-richest-person","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Gautam Adani becomes Asia’s richest"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/Z02IxpbqstJ978If_adani.JPG?auto=format,compress"},"datetime":"2026-04-17T05:51:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"amit-shahs-firm-stance-no-religious-reservations-for-muslims-mo2pi22d","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Amit Shah: No Religious Reservations for Muslims"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad%2F9a998da1-ed74-4d1d-bf5c-3ce42a2986be_amit+shah.jpg?auto=format,compress&rect=0,44,1280,631&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T19:29:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"bengaluru-businessmans-honeytrap-nightmare-blackmailed-after-instagram-encounter-mo2pi7w3","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Businessman’s Honeytrap Nightmare"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/c8335006-73f0-4db2-9b9f-f9d6f0421a05_love+is+blind.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T18:30:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"ysr-congress-leader-released-on-bail","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"YSR Congress leader released on bail"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad%2F7216aea1-016a-4612-8cd4-886237641335_ysrcp.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&rect=0%2C5%2C1200%2C592&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T13:39:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"tvk-manifesto-welfare-ai-1.5t-goal","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"TVK Manifesto: Welfare, AI, $1.5T Goal"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/aeEUw51ZCF7ETQr3_vijaytvk.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T13:15:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"from-now-onwards-nari-shakti-will-not-be-just-a-slogan","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"From now onwards, Nari Shakti will not be just a slogan"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/adOj4pGXnQHGZSCp_pawan.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T07:30:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"infosys-denies-pune-harassment-claims","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Infosys Denies Pune Harassment Claims"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/7766529c-412f-4d9a-a068-c32a77895fee_infosys.JPG?auto=format,compress"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T06:06:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"case-filed-against-vijay","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Case filed against Vijay"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/aPPHEJ5xUNkB2HoK_vijay.JPG?auto=format,compress"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T05:30:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"pichai-ranbir-in-times-100-most-influential-people-of-2026","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Pichai, Ranbir in TIME's '100 Most Influential'"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/aeC5qZ1ZCF7ETPhc_pichairanbir.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-16T05:28:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"madras-hc-orders-i-t-probe-on-udhayanidhi-assets","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Court Orders Probe on Udhayanidhi Assets"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/5eb52f79-f1fb-4224-8660-30b6f9452808_udhanidhi+stallin.JPG?auto=format,compress"},"datetime":"2026-04-15T08:13:00+0000"}}},{"node":{"uid":"lokesh-elevated-as-national-wp-of-tdp","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Lokesh elevated as national WP of TDP"},"img":{"url":"https://images.prismic.io/prad/Z4vnQ5bqstJ99mOE_lokesh.JPG?auto=format,compress&rect=0,0,2028,1000&w=2028&h=1000"},"datetime":"2026-04-15T07:41:00+0000"}}}]}},"pageContext":{"isCreatedByStatefulCreatePages":false,"uid":"gold-isnt-just-tradition-anymoreits-indias-new-age-wealth-statement","tags":["politics"]}}
