Assam Pearl Crafts & Assamese Jewellery

Assam Pearl Crafts & Assamese Jewellery

Assam’s pearl crafts and traditional Assamese jewellery reflect the state’s cultural heritage and are widely used with traditional attire and on ceremonial occasions.

Assam’s pearl crafts and traditional jewellery, such as gamkharu, jonbiri, and dholbiri, are handcrafted using pearls, gold-plated metals, and traditional motifs. The growing demand for ethnic jewellery in domestic and global markets creates opportunities for artisans and small enterprises. Key opportunities include branding, e-commerce sales, and the export of handcrafted jewellery to niche cultural markets. From a fiscal perspective, handcrafted jewellery is subject to applicable GST, while exports are zero-rated with RoDTEP benefits, and imports of tools or raw materials may involve customs duties, subject to applicable MSME incentives. From a non-fiscal perspective, compliance with hallmarking, quality standards, packaging, and branding requirements is essential.
