In March 2022, credit to Gem &amp; Jewellery Sector rose to a six-year peak of Rs. 80,400 crores. In a span of 2 years, from March 2020 to March 2022, credit to the Gem &amp; Jewellery sector grew by 35%, whereas credit to all sectors grew by 6.7%.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">\u201cOur vision is to take the gem &amp; jewellery exports to USD 55 billion by 2025.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_GB\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v3.2&#038;appId=1732452170262278&#038;autoLogAppEvents=1\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Mumbai:\u00a0 Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC), organised its annual Banking Summit on 14th October, 2022, at St. Regis, Mumbai.
