The 14th edition of the Delhi Jewellery & Gem Fair (DJGF) 2026 will be held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, from September 26 to 28, bringing together more than 650 exhibitors and over 3,000 jewellery brands. Organised by Informa Markets in India, the three-day B2B exhibition is expected to feature more than 150,000 jewellery designs and attract over 30,000 jewellery trade professionals. The event is positioned as a sourcing and business platform for manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, distributors, exporters and other industry participants.
The 2026 edition will take place ahead of the festive and wedding buying season, with a focus on changing consumer preferences and inventory requirements. With gold prices remaining high, buyers are increasingly looking for lightweight, value-conscious and differentiated jewellery that can meet changing customer demand.

The exhibition will cover the wider jewellery manufacturing and retail ecosystem, including machinery and equipment, technology, packaging, display solutions, software, security systems and allied services. Among the companies and organisations participating in the 2026 edition are Beera Jewellers, IDT Gemmological Laboratories, IAGES, Zar Jewels, Future Gold & Diamond Jewellery, R M Precious Jewellery India, Charu Chain & Jewels, Heera Jewels and Gems, Shree Balaji Gold, Shree Ramdhari Jewellers, Riddhima Chain & Jewellery, Chain House International, Vikas Chain & Jewellery, Grover Jewells, S K Jora Jewellers, K C Jewellers, G R Export, Yashika Diamonds, Hissaria Diamonds, Jain Dia Mounts and Dazzle Jewels.
A dedicated Silver Pavilion will bring together silver jewellery exhibitors, while the 2026 edition will also feature its largest Machinery Hall. The Artisan Zone will showcase traditional craftsmanship, including Thewa Art Jewellery and Silver Filigree of Karimnagar.
For the first time, DJGF will host the Jewellery Retail Symposium in partnership with The New Jeweller. The conference will cover retail trends, consumer behaviour, marketing, innovation and business strategies. The event will also include the 10th edition of the Retail Jewellery Guild Award, along with Shakti Awards, Power of Young Award and Jewellery Manufacturers Icons.
Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India, said, “India’s gems and jewellery market is projected to reach USD 130 billion by 2030, highlighting the sector’s strong momentum and long-term potential.” He added that high gold prices and changing consumer preferences were encouraging retailers to focus on lightweight and differentiated designs, while hallmarking, transparency and responsible sourcing were becoming increasingly important.
Sustainability and responsible business practices will form part of the event’s industry discussions. DJGF has partnered with the Responsible Jewellery Council as its Sustainability Partner. The show is supported by several jewellery trade associations, including The Bullion and Jewellers Association Delhi, Karol Bagh Jewellers Association, Delhi Jewellers Association, Mumbai Wholesale Gold Jewellers Association, Maliwara Jewellers Association, Dariba Jewellers Association, All India Jewellers & Goldsmith Federation and Gurugram Jewellers Association.
