India's gem and jewellery exports surged 26.51% year-on-year to USD 2.21 billion in June, according to the Gem and Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC).

Growth was fueled by strong demand for gold, diamonds, and lab-grown diamonds in key markets.

Lower gold prices contributed to the export rise.
