The development will comprise 10 blocks: eight blocks for large and medium manufacturing units, one block for small manufacturing units and one block for commercial offices. Manufacturing spaces for large and medium units will offer floor plates ranging from 1,000 to 25,000 sq. ft., catering to businesses of different scales. Prices start from Rs. 10400/sq. ft., zero stamp duty and zero transfer charges. Phase 1 will cover four blocks—A4, A5, A6 and A7—with a planned construction area of 24.97 lakh sq. ft. and a carpet area of 13.32 lakh sq. ft. All statutory approvals have been obtained and bank financing has been approved. Shri Devendra Fadnavis, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra said, “The India Jewellery Park Mumbai is the future of our gem and jewellery industry. With the commencement of construction, we are taking a decisive step towards creating world-class infrastructure that will strengthen manufacturing, attract investments and generate employment. With an estimated investment potential of ₹50,000 crore and the capacity to create around one lakh direct and indirect jobs, the Park will be a major catalyst for Maharashtra’s economic growth. As India expands its global trade partnerships through Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) with key markets, our industry stands to gain new opportunities for exports, market access and international collaboration. The India Jewellery Park Mumbai will provide the infrastructure and ecosystem needed to seize these opportunities and take Indian jewellery manufacturing to greater heights. Maharashtra is committed to supporting this growth through progressive policies, a business-friendly environment and strong infrastructure. Together with GJEPC, we are laying the foundation for a stronger, more competitive and globally connected gem and jewellery industry.” Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra said, “India Jewellery Park Mumbai is a landmark project that will give fresh impetus to Maharashtra’s economic growth. From Zaveri Bazaar, SEEPZ to Bharat Diamond Bourse, Maharashtra has built a strong legacy in this industry. India Jewellery Park Mumbai will take that legacy forward by bringing manufacturing, skilled artisans, design, technology and innovation together under one roof. Our artisans and skilled designers are the backbone of this industry. Through skill development, we will create new opportunities for our youth, empower our workforce and help our manufacturers compete on the global stage. This is not just a project for the gem and jewellery industry; it is an important step towards building a stronger, more self-reliant Maharashtra.” Shri Ganesh Naik, Minister of Forests, Government of Maharashtra said, “Maharashtra has always been at the forefront of India’s economic and industrial growth. The India Jewellery Park Mumbai (IJPM) in Navi Mumbai will be a major milestone in strengthening the state’s position as a global hub for the gems and jewellery industry. With the support of the government and industry stakeholders, this landmark project will create new opportunities for investment, employment and growth, while giving a strong boost to the sector. IJPM will contribute to Maharashtra’s economic progress and help realise the vision of a developed India, as envisaged by Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi under Viksit Bharat.” Shri Kirit Bhansali, Chairman, GJEPC said, “India Jewellery Park Mumbai will be a game-changer for India's gem and jewellery industry. By bringing manufacturers, artisans and allied services under one roof, it will create new opportunities for MSMEs, encourage investment, generate employment and strengthen India's jewellery manufacturing capabilities. With the support of the Maharashtra Government and the incentives offered under the Maharashtra Gems and Jewellery Policy 2025, the Park will help businesses grow, promote Indian jewellery brands and enhance our competitiveness in global markets. It will be an important step towards achieving India's ambitious gem and jewellery export targets and establishing Brand India as a global symbol of craftsmanship, quality and innovation.” The project will benefit from the Maharashtra Government’s policy support for the gem and jewellery sector. Incentives outlined for eligible units include stamp duty and MIDC transfer fee exemptions, a 50% SGST waiver for the specified eligibility period, electricity duty exemptions and interest subsidies on term loans for MSMEs. Eligible lab-grown diamond units may also benefit from electricity tariff support, subject to the applicable conditions. A single-window clearance mechanism under the MAITRI policy is intended to simplify approvals and improve the ease of doing business. The project has already generated encouraging interest from industry participants, with more than 70 companies expressing interest in investing in the Park. This response reflects industry confidence in the project’s potential and the opportunity to build a modern, globally competitive manufacturing ecosystem in Maharashtra. The Maharashtra Government’s dedicated Gems and Jewellery Policy 2025 further strengthens the investment proposition by providing sector-specific support. The Park is expected to facilitate business expansion, create opportunities for skilled and semi-skilled workers, and strengthen the network of ancillary services that support jewellery manufacturing. As construction commences, GJEPC has called upon manufacturers, jewellery businesses and other industry stakeholders to participate in the project and explore opportunities to establish their units at the Park. The development is intended to serve as a shared industry asset—one that supports the next phase of growth in Indian jewellery manufacturing and enhances the country’s global competitiveness.
